An Off-Radar One-Day Passive Flow Trading Play from the KOSPI 200 Sector Indices
- June’s rebalance brings rare moves in key sector indices: HD Hyundai Marine Solution (443060 KS) joins Heavy Industry, while Cosmo AM&T (005070 KS) exits IT.
- TIGER flows on June 12 may hit KRW 6B (HD Marine) and KRW 4B (Cosmo), implying 0.3–0.6x DTV impact — notable given both names’ low liquidity.
- KOSPI 200 flows may fade early, but TIGER sector flows remain stealthy, raising odds of flow-driven price action on June 12 — a potential long-short day trade setup.

- Samsung 3nm yields improving (50-60%) but still far behind TSMC (85-90%)

- Huawei into semiconductor chemicals? The vulnerability is photo-resist, but that’s very hard to do
