Samsung Q3 Profit Seen Up 9x; Memory Shortage May Last to 2028

Commercial Times reported that Samsung Electronics' Q3 operating profit could rise about ninefold year-on-year and cited views that memory supply tightness may persist until 2028. If the memory supercycle is prolonged, SK Hynix as a key HBM and DRAM supplier stands to gain significantly in pricing power and earnings leverage, supporting upward revisions to memory-sector valuations.

Asahi Shimbun reports Samsung Electronics' Q3 operating profit is expected to surge about nine-fold year-on-year, but memory chip margins may stay flat, suggesting the industry recovery is driven mainly by price rebounds and one-off factors rather than broad demand strength. For SK Hynix, this implies limited earnings upside in conventional memory outside HBM; the stock may track peer earnings sentiment near term, but sector pullback risk remains if margins disappoint.
