Samsung, SK hynix Suffer Worst Weekly Rout Since 2008

South Korean media reported that Samsung Electronics and SK hynix posted their worst weekly stock decline since the 2008 financial crisis, driven by fears of a memory cycle peak, slowing AI data-center investment and sustained foreign selling. Near term, panic selling may pressure shares further; longer term, the outlook hinges on HBM demand and earnings delivery, leaving room for recovery if fundamentals hold.
