Bull Market Investment Strategy... How to Leverage Volatility in a Runaway Rally Without Corrections
Bull Market Investment Strategy... How to Leverage Volatility in a Runaway Rally Without Corrections
π Summary
In this rare bull market driven by overlapping global liquidity expansion and EPS improvement in Korean companies, rather than waiting for the inertial ‘buy on dips’ strategy, investors should leverage volatility as an opportunity through confident investment in core stocks.
π Why It Matters! (Significance and Context)
The current stock market is experiencing a rare form of a three-pronged bull market, the likes of which hasn't been seen in the past 20 years. These three prongs are global liquidity expansion, multiple improvement, and EPS improvement. Despite the absence of clear crisis situations like past financial crises or the COVID crisis, the power of liquidity is extremely strong as the US, Europe, Korea, and others are all printing money. Stock prices are explained by ‘EPS × P/E’. Beyond the rise in multiples (P/E), improving EPS (earnings per share) is also occurring, strengthening the upward momentum. The ‘buy on dips’ strategy often used by individual investors is difficult to execute effectively in such a powerful bull market. Understanding the fundamental shift in the market and cultivating a confident investment mindset is key.
π₯ Key Takeaways
1️⃣ Structural Drivers of the Bull Market: The Combination of Liquidity Expansion and Fundamental Improvement
- The trend of liquidity expansion continues as the global trend of interest rate cuts and money printing persists.
- The fundamental driver shaping stock market PER (multiples) is liquidity, and currently, EPS improvement is adding to this, creating a powerful upward trend.
- Since the yield gap (attractiveness of stocks relative to bonds) is not negative, it is judged to be a bull market, not yet a bubble stage.
2️⃣ Market Uptrend Catalyst: US CAPEX Investment and Benefits for Korean Industries
- The core driver of the US stock market rally and global investment sentiment is the increase in CAPEX (capital expenditure) investment. Even during the tariff war period, CAPEX forecasts were revised upward through 2028.
- Korean industries related to CAPEX—such as semiconductors (memory supply shortages, foundry contracts), power, and secondary batteries (power-related stocks)—are acting as key drivers of profit improvement.
- Catalysts are unexpected events that ignite stock prices. Rather than focusing on short-term price fluctuations, investors should concentrate on tracking the value direction of companies where catalysts emerge.
3️⃣ Shift in Foreign Investors' Perspective: Undervaluation Appeal and Expectations for Improved Capital Allocation
- Viewed in dollar terms, the KOSPI index has not surpassed its 2021 peak, meaning the Korean stock market remains perceived as undervalued from foreign investors' perspective.
- Capital allocation improvements through measures like commercial law revisions and expectations for value-uppolicies act as catalysts for foreign capital inflows.
- Foreign investors show a tendency to concentrate on stocks with large market capitalization in the Korean market, with large-cap stocks leading the market.
4️⃣ Investment Mindset in a Bull Market and Utilizing Volatility
- In a bull market, as Peter Lynch advised, one should ignore worldly worries and maintain patience.
- Following the principle of “Don't water the weeds or pick the flowers,” focus on core stocks and avoid short-term profit-taking.
- Rather than waiting for desired prices, use volatility—such as noise related to trade wars (e.g., Trump's remarks) or declines after short-term earnings announcements—as an opportunity to buy core stocks at discounted prices.
π In summary
The current market is in a bull market where the pace of gains is accelerating. This is driven by sustained liquidity expansion, expectations for improved CAPEX investment and capital allocation, and strengthened fundamental momentum from EPS improvement. Foreign investors, who perceive the Korean stock market as undervalued, continue to pour in funds, while earnings estimates for core stocks like Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix keep getting upgraded. Investors should avoid being swayed by short-term news and price fluctuations. Following Peter Lynch's advice, they should ignore the world's worries and adopt a patient stance toward core stocks that have captured catalysts. When market downturn factors (e.g., escalating trade wars) occur, a strategy is needed to leverage volatility as an additional buying opportunity to reap the rewards of the bull market.
π° Investment Advice
- Cash and Bonds: In an environment of increased government bond issuance and persistent liquidity expansion, cash and bonds may yield the least favorable returns. Increasing the allocation to risk assets (stocks) is advantageous.
- Stocks: Focus investments on large-cap stocks and core sectors (semiconductors, power, specific manufacturing) benefiting from CAPEX investments and exhibiting strong EPS improvement momentum. Use short-term price corrections as opportunities to leverage volatility for buying.
