South Korea’s equity market has overtaken Canada’s as the world’s seventh largest, propelled by insatiable demand for chips powering artificial intelligence. The total market capitalization of Korea-listed companies has surged 71% this year to $4.59 trillion, while Canada’s has climbed about 7% to $4.5 trillion, data compiled by Bloomberg show. Samsung Electronics Co. , which recently crossed the $1 trillion valuation mark, and SK Hynix Inc. have both more than doubled this year as their dominance in the AI chip segment made their products — and stocks — highly sought after. The crossover underscores how index composition is determining national equity fortunes. With the two chip heavyweights accounting for 45% of the benchmark’s weighting, Korea’s market valuation has ridden a wave of semiconductor demand to shoot past major European markets like the United Kingdom and France. The Kospi gauge has added more than 70% so far this year, while Canada’s resource and finance-heavy equity benchmark S&P/TSX Composite Index has risen just 7%. “Korea’s market capitalization is likely to expand further, driven by the AI-led memory cycle, while Canada’s is more constrained given its heavy concentration in energy and financials,” said Ha SeokKeun , chief investment officer at Eugene Asset Management Co.

导读： ①昨日A股放量普涨、成交额达3.2万亿，在增量资金入场助力行情延续，宜把握结构性轮动节奏；②半导体芯片为市场核心主线，算力芯片领涨，行业高景气逻辑强化，但短期板块获利回吐压力显现，震荡休整属合理走势；③算力租赁概念反复活跃，后续聚焦有业绩支撑、走势稳健的核心标的。 昨日市场迎来放量普涨，三大指数全线上涨，科创50连续两日涨超5%，量能放大至3.2万亿，在增量资金加速涌入的背景下本轮行情仍存进一步演绎空间，但仍需要注意短线节奏，整体还是以轮动结构性行情思路看待为宜。 当前半导体芯片产业链仍是 A 股市场核心热点，算力芯片分支领涨走强，海光信息单日大涨超 16%，总市值突破八千亿，带动板块情绪全面升温。超威半导体最新财报及业绩指引，大幅上调服务器 CPU 市场增长预期，叠加 AI 智能体应用落地催生算力需求，进一步强化行业景气上行逻辑，引爆资金做多热情。值得留意的是，部分芯片股昨日午后已率先回落，板块连续快速冲高后，短期获利盘兑现意愿增强。本轮上涨积累较多浮盈，通过小幅回调震荡、沉淀筹码属于合理休整，后续行情仍依托CPU及AI算力周期逻辑，重点关注板块内部轮动机会。 算力租赁概念昨日再度爆发，利通电子4天3板，大位科技、东阳光、美利云涨停。随着AI大模型迭代加速与推理需求的指数级爆发，算力企业通过将算力租赁升级为Token工厂，构建起平台级的调度能力后，方能满足大模型厂商极高的合作门槛，从而切入高附加值的Token分成模式中。 机构研报认为，而当企业转变为按照实际产生的Token分成并与大模型共生时，其议价权和长期现金流预期显著改善，行业有望迎来由传统的市盈率（PE）估值体系向具备更高弹性的市销率（PS）估值体系的切换历程。从市场维度而言，算力租赁个股的分化较为明显，后续重点关注，具有业绩支撑且趋势保持相对完好的核心标的。
