A 7x oversubscription for a $2

A 7x oversubscription for a $26.5B listing is an absolute monster of a debut. While the "peak sentiment" bears will naturally argue that this is a valuation top, the underlying fundamentals of the High Bandwidth Memory (HBM) market suggest we are looking at a genuine structural shift rather than a temporary bubble.

A few reasons why this leans more toward a super-cycle than peak euphoria:

Insatiable AI Demand: Next-gen AI chips (like NVIDIA's Blackwell and beyond) require exponentially more HBM. As the clear market leader in HBM3e, SK Hynix isn't just riding a wave; they are building the infrastructure for it.

Supply is Already Locked In: Major memory producers have already noted that their HBM capacity is fully booked out through the foreseeable future. When supply cannot keep up with secular demand, prices stay sticky-high.

SK Hynix Plunges 9% Despite 12x Profit Surge — Is AI Memory Story Broken?

SK Hynix fell 8.98% Tuesday plus 4.79% after hours — net profit up ~12x YoY, but revenue missed targets.That cracked the whole memory chain: SanDisk -14.25%, Micron -8.85%, DRAM ETF -8.89%, 2x leveraged 07709 -18.99%. SOXS +14.45% against SOXL -14.52%, with KOSPI down nearly 28% in a month as the main transmission chain.If even the strongest HBM earnings can't hold share prices and inverse ETFs are at sentiment extremes — is this selloff nearing exhaustion, or just beginning?
