This summary was created by AI, based on 3 opinions in the last 12 months.

Experts are optimistic about the iShares MSCI South Korea ETF (EWY), highlighting its strong positioning in the semiconductor sector with major allocations to Hynix and Samsung, both leading players in memory technology. The ETF offers a compelling alternative to investing in these companies directly on the US market, particularly as Hynix appears to be a cheaper option. One expert noted that South Korea stands out as a key emerging market, especially following setbacks in Brazil, suggesting that EWY could provide significant growth opportunities. Furthermore, the recent surge in South Korean exports—the largest year-over-year growth since 2010—indicates a robust economic backdrop and further earnings potential driven by rising demand for memory products. All these factors contribute to a positive outlook for EWY, making it an advisable choice for diversification away from US equities.

Jul 27, 2026

He played Micron earlier this year and sold twice because the stock kept hitting his price target. Now, Micron is relatively expensive. 50% of this ETF is Hynix and Samsung, which is how to access these names; it's cheaper to own Hynix here than in the US market. EWY is a great diversification away from the US.

South Korea is the real emerging market to watch after Brazil has rolled over. EEM is seeing a slight pullback now, but is up 240% in the past year. EEM is a proxy for semis and semis equipment.

Appealing markets outside NA -- Korea (EWY), Brazil (EWZ), or Germany (EWG)?

Whatever happens in the US affects the rest of the world. He wouldn't recommend emerging markets, as they tend to underperform if/when there's a recession. 

Investors would be better off buying the best companies in the German market, rather than the whole German market. Germany's the 4th-largest economy in the world, but it's had a bunch of issues with its own deficit and economic slowdown. He owns specific stocks in Europe.

(A Top Pick Sep 26/19, Up 22%) South Korea has endured this pandemic and proven to be resilient, and not blown its national balance sheet (like western countries). Their main exports are cars and tech components. South Korean assets are overlooked and under-owned, trading at 10.5x earnings and pays a good yield. SK is integrated on global supply chains. It is the poster child for post-Covid success.

South Korean stocks are undervalued. The economy is resilient, having endured Covid well and totally integrated into world supply chains. It's benefitted from some supply chain shift away from China. South Korea is attracting more foreign capital flows. Samsung is EWY's biggest holding at 22%.

The future is Asia ex-Japan. This is the most direct way to do it. The #1 holding, Samsung, is 22% of the fund. Country funds tend to have a premium on the MER. Better way would be to just buy Samsung. Once you deconstruct the ETF, you see that it relies on just 1 or 2 stocks.
