<ul>
<li>Focus is on rotation from semi leveraged ETFs, about KRW 700bn to 1tn in 5 days, mainly cannibalizing KODEX and TIGER which proxy Samsung and Hynix leverage.</li>
<li>Better trade is smaller names, not Samsung or Hynix. Futures likely take heavy sell pressure post listing, driving outsized basis blowout and spot futures dislocation versus turnover.</li>
<li>Screen names are Hanmi, Leeno, Wonik IPS, EO Technics, ISC. Expect 1 to 1.3x futures sell flow. Play via cash shorts or basis on backwardation.</li>
