This morning (3rd), Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix, South Korea's two largest companies by market cap, saw their stock prices surge by over 6%, pushing their combined market cap to USD1.11 trillion, Bloomberg reported. It marked the first time the duo's total value had topped that of China's two internet giants, BABA-W (09988.HK) and TENCENT (00700.HK).

This achievement indicates that the global AI boom is reshaping the investment landscape in Asia, benefiting South Korean chip makers at the core of the supply chain.
