Morgan Stanley analyst Shawn Kim upgraded the storage industry rating from "bearish to bullish," stating that the market correction is nearing its end, and raised SK Hynix's 2026 EPS estimate by 13%.
Shawn Kim, a Morgan Stanley analyst once dubbed the "bearish spokesperson" in the Korean market, has released his latest report, indicating that the most severe market correction in the current storage cycle is nearing its end, and current valuations offer an "attractive tactical entry" opportunity. The report raises SK Hynix's 2026 earnings per share (EPS) estimate by 13%, primarily reflecting the positive impact of second-quarter asset disposal gains; simultaneously, it lowers Samsung Electronics' 2026 EPS estimate by 10% due to continued weakness in its consumer electronics business. Morgan Stanley maintains its price targets for both companies, projecting that their target prices imply over 60% upside potential from current stock prices. Kim believes that AI-driven demand represents a structural change rather than mere cyclical fluctuations, and he anticipates earnings growth of 25% to 50% for both companies in 2027.
