I am buying SKHY and EWY, Korea we pumpin alright.
Stocks will soar from here. Yields are crashing along with the dollar. This rally will be led by yield sensitive $IWM, $KRE, $SOXX, $EWY
Anyone buying the dip on Korea? EWY calls?
EWY is a good enough proxy for what you probably want to do with it
Korea finished crashing? When do we buy calls on EWY?
Just boring, light, profit-taking. Moved Money FROM: DFIS, GOOG, SPCQ, LMND (though this one IS risky IMO). Moved Money INTO: NVDA (, EWY (for exposure to Samsung), and some random dollars into QQQ. Hanging tight on the rest.
You sure about that? KORU moves like QQQ and SOXL, when risk on env is on, all go up. Single stocks shouldn't have problems with recovery, KOSPI/EWY may because whole rally was fueled by leveraged ETFs, and leverage is kinda banned now.
Seen the AI news and went to short the Korean EWY etf only to find it’s already down 5% They bloody quick those Koreans
I own $SKHY but I've also been watching $EWJ (Japan) and $EWT (Taiwan) outperform $EWY (South Korea) for over 3 months now. There's more competition coming for SK from not only Toshiba but Kioxia as well. The region ETF's have been pricing in that competition for awhile now. $SKHY stock has not.
Micron down EWY up. We know that koreans buying when their stock exchange is closed lol.
yeah that's the kind of lesson you only need once, the fills on stuff like $EWY after hours are an absolute nightmare
if we ban diesel and gas exports go long EWY and USO, puts on SPY
EWY, diesel export ban stateside might rocket this shit
EWY after KPop demon hunters went big. Figured korea was going for a 'culture victory' and I should ride along. 200% up, but such a dumb reason.
I front run the SKHY listing with EWY. This guy might be onto something... https://preview.redd.it/0eqshfziiwph1.png?width=2560&format=png&auto=webp&s=fdceb7c9da331a1d5aa55b0d2682367a077df8e8
I do something vaguely similar. I have a £850k offset mortgage. The cash I keep there reduces my mortgage (4.45%) to zero ie a tax free saving equivalent to 8% (I pay tax at 39.35% on dividends). I use 400k USD of the capital for writing put options. But I tend to chase the higher yield and the only index I write on is EWY. And I often get carried away so 400k becomes 500. I haven’t been doing it for long enough to reach any conclusions. But I am thinking of getting a bigger mortgage
ks11 seems to be the standard symbol which is used on various sites. The one I gave you was for yahoo finance. No need to get testy I use that symbol and EWY
!p CEG,EWY,MU,SNDK
Try EWY, It's a proxy for Kospi
SNDK and EWY are making MU and SKHY just look silly

Napkin math. EWY sold ~1% on Fri. By that standard shares traded on the Korean exchange would be worth more than the equivalent on the US market so a smart MM would buy the ETF and sell shares directly on KOSPI with the profit being the spread between the two. MMs algo trade near lightspeed and compete against each other so the spread is essentially invisible to retail. (Btw, this is one of the reasons MMs are beneficial to the overall market because they keep the spread closed on arbitrages like this.) MMs are also not limited to markets like retail, trading all week on dark pools, etc. The buy/sell spread determined by the KOSPI is well-defined before the market or futures open. What I'm trying to say there isn't a giant gap down as soon as pre-market opens as everyone rushes to sell from under each other, so much as there are spreads determined by institutions and whales and a smattering of retail when trading first starts. >foreign markets don't have futures reread my comment, I said they did
we cant see korea premarket when looking at KOSPI, we need to use the EWY ticker.
Yep exactly. On tradingview you are just seeing Kospi normal trading hours which completely misses the nasdaq trading hours. Korean stocks like SKHY, EWY, KORu all trade in nasdaq/NYSE
It's not that complicated. Take EWY on your brokerage and see its AH move. That's what Kospi is since it started trading on Wednesday SK time.
It gets more extreme if you narrow down the region and don't consider ex US all the same. $EWJ TYD +18.21% (Japan) $VPL YTD +27.69% (Pacific Asia) $EWT YTD +65.61% (Taiwan) $EWY YTD +84.41% (South Korea) If you are not diversifying outside of the USA, you are a fucking idiot and underperforming the world market.
Actually all Kospi stocks are green. EWY, KORU..
KOSPI crashing cuz i bought $1k of EWY the other day
i bought $1000 of EWY a few days ago to trigger a KOSPI crash
That 6% SK drop you are seeing is due to US folks selling earlier today. In other words, that's already factored into all US memory ETFs like DRAM, KORU, EWY etc. that you see. As for whether Korea will dump further at their open, that's anyone's guess. You ain't playing any arbitrage bullshit here, son
Well good thing I sold my EWY XCHP and CLS before markets closed 😂
Well Korean stocks (EWY, KORU, SKHY etc) got bought up during US trading hours due to them being listed on nasdaq and NYSE and what not. As a result, they will open with a gap up in SKorea tonight.
That means Dram and EWY will front run and pump hard Monday
Short EWY, Long KWEB. EM pair trade.
just initiated positions in EWY and NFLX
i've been running a highly concentrated portfolio but i think i'm just gonna start sprinkling <0.5% positions for some stocks that feel like they're undervalued. just bought $1k of NFLX and $1k of EWY
finna hop on the wave and load up on EWY
let's see, I shorted EWY overnight lmao
damn how is EWY only down 17 bps
this might be difficult for you to comprehend, but half the money trading on KOSPI is foreign money. DRAM, EWY, KORU... anyone who trades these is part of the volatility.
EWY has been a bust for me going on months.
Putting money in EWY has been the worst move I ever made
Why did I join the crazy Koreans and bought EWY ETF and SK Hynix? I feel I do belong here 😂
You didn't know about EWY? That shit was cooking earlier in the year before the kimchi hit
Just see EWY. The gains on EWY since Pacific time midnight is basically where Kospi will open that day
AAPL, META, EWY, Semis
$NVDA $SMH $MU $SKHY $EWY $SNDK Banks shutdown AI-debt financing. Now BigTech has negative cash flow negative Who buy semi and where liquidity come to buy semi think? Story telling & PT pump like “Situational Awareness “ kid
nah, foreigners did. activity in ETFs like DRAM and EWY and KORU were driving the buying. You just dont understand how these ETFs work and assume only Koreans trade on the Korean market.
Just look at EWY gains from Pacific midnight. That's basically Kospi premarket gain.
EWY does hold the Korean stock, 000660 (SK Hynix) as its 2nd largest holding. I use IEMG the lower expense ratio for investors that don’t need a super liquid options market with EEM. Same holdings just you pay 0.09% vs 0.72% for EEM and about 0.5% for country specific ETFs like EWY.
KORU usually sets the pumping value for its cousins, which include EWY, FLXK, FLKR, and, on occasion, SMH. A strange casino.
You can, sort of. EWY is a south korea ETF
because of Fri's movement. EWY sold off on fri -> arbitrage cause KOSPI to open lower-> KOSPI rises through market hours-> EWY up overnight
Look at where KOSPI closed their time on Friday. Look how much EWY dropped between that time and the next open for KOSPI. The current EWY is only the move after our markets closed at 4 p.m. EST. But that’s like 14 hours after KOSPI closed.
Shorted DRAM, EWY, Intel, & Corning and made about %30 return on each in 1 month 👍🏼 closed out now
Yeah hopefully all the fear means we are close to a bottom. I was in SOXX, DRAM, and EWY pretty heavy and went from +50% YTD to -10% in just 5 or 6 weeks. Just crazy how violently they fell
Hope so, EWY was unstoppable earlier this year
Rate my stocks: DRAM EWY MSFU SPCX ORCL RTDL SOXL BABX SKHY AXTX
No it won't? The US Friday price action (drop in EWY) will reflect as a huge gap down tonight on Kospi
should've bought DRAM puts instead of EWY o well ggs closed
In todays episode of South Koreans being degens, as of premarket EWY is up 14% since yesterday. I find it remarkable how a broad based market ETF behaves like a single tech stock. In terms of memory degens, DRAM is up 21%, MU 22%, SKHY 23%, and SNDK 30%. Mind you that's still below like last week so who knows how this will turn out
EWY did 11.79% yesterday, and it's already 2.94% in pre-market. Moreover, KOSPI was down yesterday, and it pumped today. I prefer FLXK, as it is tax-free and accumulates as well. https://preview.redd.it/fyrdjzs0pigh1.jpeg?width=1216&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3a220c8aaa49639bb83b85aa6dc433ee151597a2
Sir that’s how it works when both don’t trade at the same time lmao. The EWY day move + the overnight move while KOSPI is open should bring the EWY close to its real NAV
EWY only up 2% overnight. Kospi is up 17% overnight. 1 is lying. I think its Kospi and EWY gonna start dumping lmao
Hope this gets reflected in EWY, it’s US listed ETF 🤞
Both ways. KORU/EWY is traded by Americans which pumps Kospi and vice versa
does anyone here know why KORU doesn't track EWY or KOSPI in overnight trading? For instance, I've just taken a positon in KORU for overnight trading in anticipation of tomorrow. But I'm down on KORU, even though KOSPI is 16% (!!! they are crazy!) up.
16%. EWY was the easiest long of my life yesterday lol
You mean EWY? Down is when you buy. Stabilization after major consecutive crashes --> SKHY 17% boom in the US market in the morning made it so obvious EWY was a buy
kospi catching up with EWY. but crazy first candle tho. 11% jesus lol
VM please answer me 😭 EWY Gex
It will be up when their market opens later today. EWY is up 10% atm
EWY is already up over 8% today. Looks like margin called degenerates are done and life moves on. Kospi is just back to less than 3 month ago.
7% is like an average daily swing for EWY lol
Look at the EWY etf…. It is already 7 percent up
incredibly wrong about everything switched from MSFT into GOOGL, GOOGL dies MSFT rips lotto call on META after beatdown pre earnings, META dumps Lotto calls on EWY, no dice shit even the tesla 400c money glitch stopped working
Ive been buying EWY every night. Being greedy while BTS is being fearful
You buy puts on the EWY etf. Which is the ishares MSCI Korea tracker.
EWY puts will bank when korea wakes up and crashes the KOSPI
i shorted 300 shares of EWY @ $145 back in April and just broke even. kPop is going down yo.
Anyone buying today take a look at EWY. The American markets effectively "bought" the South Korea crash dip. I don't believe it.
I still haven’t seen EWY gains hit the board yet. You regards need to step your game up
I was hoping to buy the iShares EWY ETF if it dropped further but it seems lately it is not tracking its underlying index, does anyone know why? https://preview.redd.it/ehu73rjoy5gh1.jpeg?width=1200&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3c01f3945c8bb88440a49f6ba5ee6eee933136b0
I bought EWY about a month ago! :'(
Theres, a bunch of SK ETFs - EWY 1x, KRWX 2x, KORU 3x I can only see options for 1x/3x on my end - what you thinking for calls?
Alright boys and girls, to get in on the action, you may select from the following: EWY for plain old 1x, KRWX for some sweet 2x, and KORU for 3x I’m buying calls, yall do what you want
