On July 7, Morningstar analyst Jing Jie Yu indicated that investors may feel somewhat disappointed with Samsung Electronics' revenue expectations. He noted that the company's projected operating profit aligns with market expectations, but the revenue forecast of 171 trillion won is slightly below the average expectation. This underwhelming performance may be attributed to the increase in DRAM prices being lower than anticipated. This has likely alarmed investors who increasingly expect a structural strengthening in memory chip prices. As investors became more cautious, Samsung Electronics' stock price closed down 6.9%, narrowing this year's gains to just below 150%.
