  • SK Hynix ADRs Hold 42% Premium as Conversion Bets Grow Before Results
    July 16, 2026, 10:14 AM EDT. SK Hynix ADRs traded at a 42% premium to Seoul-listed shares before results, underscoring a wide valuation gap. Seoul shares dropped 11.5% to 1.842 million won. ADRs ended at $176.46 and were $163.36 premarket. The gap stands even as Seoul shares lost 15.7% since July 9. That has traders watching for conversion or arbitrage plays near month-end. Investors point to a recent 25-basis point rate hike by the Bank of Korea and tighter rules on leveraged ETFs, both weighing on Korean equities. DRAM shortages help support prices. But uncertainty lingers, with risks of AI-driven selloffs and U.S. scarcity premiums holding. The focus is on conversion guidance and any news on ADR borrowing, seen as key to price direction.
