Samsung Electronics Co. has reached a $1 trillion market valuation after booming demand for chips used in artificial intelligence saw the world’s largest memory maker’s stock more than quadruple over the past year. The milestone came as the South Korean company’s shares rallied as much as 11% early on Wednesday, making it only the second Asian firm after Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. to hit the mark. The gains boosted the Kospi benchmark above the 7,000 level. Samsung, alongside memory peer SK Hynix Inc. and TSMC, sits at the heart of a transformation that has made Asia a cornerstone of the global AI ecosystem, pairing chipmaking dominance with expanding data infrastructure. That shift has fueled a powerful rally in regional tech stocks — SK Hynix and TSMC also reached record highs this month — as investors bet on sustained demand for advanced chips and computing capacity. “The trillion dollar threshold carries material weight beyond the symbolism,” said Dave Mazza , chief executive officer at Roundhill Investments in New York. “More broadly, it reflects a market judgment that memory’s role in the AI infrastructure stack is structural, not cyclical.” Just days ago, Samsung’s semiconductor arm brought in historic profit over the March quarter beating expectations with a 48-fold jump as AI data center orders delivered hefty margins. Analysts expect the division to build on its record-breaking profit over the next several quarters as contract prices continue their steep upward trajectory amid limited supply . Meanwhile, Apple Inc. has held exploratory discussions about using Samsung to produce the main processors for its devices in the US, a move that would offer a secondary option beyond longtime partner TSMC. “If investors do some work on Samsung Electronics we think they will conclude that the investment opportunity is attractive even if they have missed its performance up until now,” said Sam Konrad , investment manager at Jupiter Asset Management. “The me...

Trump DOJ Probes 36 Illinois School Districts For Secretly Transitioning Kids Behind Parents' Backs Authored by Steve Watson via Modernity.news, The Trump administration is cracking down hard on radical gender policies in public schools. The Department of Justice has launched full investigations into 36 Illinois school districts accused of helping children “change genders” without telling their parents and pushing sexual orientation and gender ideology without proper opt-out notifications. While blue-state bureaucrats treat families as obstacles, the DOJ is stepping in to enforce basic accountability and Supreme Court precedent. The review is also looking at whether the district’s violated parents right to opt their child out of lessons on gender and s*xuality.” 🚨 BREAKING: The Trump administration launches investigations into DOZENS of Illinois school districts for carrying out TRANSGENDER transitions on kids behind the parents' backs WTF?! This is DEMENTED. Pull all funding! "Prosecutors say they helped children CHANGE GENDERS… pic.twitter.com/teYRZvH1NT — Eric Daugherty (@EricLDaugh) May 4, 2026 Senior correspondent Mike Tobin reported: “The DOJ has launched an investigation into some 36 schools in Illinois. The investigation is going to probe whether the schools are pushing woke agenda on the students, particularly if they’re pushing s*xual orientation and gender ideology.” Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon made the administration’s position crystal clear: “This Department of Justice is determined to put an end to local school authorities keeping parents in the dark about how sexuality and gender ideology are being pushed in classrooms.” “Supreme Court precedent leaves no doubt: parents have the fundamental right and primary authority to direct the care, upbringing, and education of their children,” Dhillon added. Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker dismissed the probe as “a sham aimed at punishing states President Trump does not like.” The official DOJ ann...

Indonesia tightened rules on dollar purchases to defend the rupiah after it weakened to a record low. Cash purchases of foreign currency without supporting documents will be limited further to $25,000 from $50,000 to support rupiah stabilization measures, Bank Indonesia Governor Perry Warjiyo said at a briefing in Jakarta late Tuesday. The rupiah is undervalued and should strengthen, the governor said at a joint briefing with ministers after meeting President Prabowo Subianto. Bank Indonesia also intervened in the market yesterday as the currency fell to 17,443 per dollar, an all-time low. Asian central banks are under pressure to boost their currency defense, particularly those most vulnerable to the surge in oil prices following the Iran war. In India, the central bank is weighing a plan for state-owned lenders to sell foreign-currency bonds to draw capital inflows.
