  • Goldman Sachs Sees North Asian Stocks Outperforming Southern Markets on AI and Energy Resilience
    May 19, 2026, 9:30 PM EDT. According to Goldman Sachs strategist Tim Moe, North Asian equity markets outperform South Asian ones due to greater resilience to energy shocks and strong AI sector growth. South Korea and Taiwan lead with tech-heavy indices, posting significant year-to-date gains, including over 80% in South Korea. In contrast, South Asia, including Indonesia, suffers a 25% decline due to lacking technology exposure and higher energy vulnerability. China's A-shares have gained 10% amid emerging deflation recovery and policy support, while H-shares lag given weaker tech earnings. Moe warns of potential market corrections as energy supply shocks loom, despite optimism for stable Japanese markets fueled by political stability and AI robotics growth.
