Market Focus08-28 11:38

On August 28, CSOP Samsung Electronics Daily (2x) Leveraged Product declined 5.32% in regular trading, trading at HK$73.3, with turnover of HK$143 million.

On the news front, the Bank of Korea announced a 25-basis-point rate hike to 3.0% on August 27, marking the second consecutive meeting with a rate increase — the first back-to-back tightening in over three years. Following the decision, Korean equities reversed intraday gains sharply, with Samsung Electronics seeing its advance narrow from over 3.6% to just 0.57%. On August 28, Samsung Electronics opened lower, falling 2.26% in early Seoul trading.

The ETF had previously staged a roughly 10% rebound over two consecutive sessions, entering profit-taking territory. Additionally, negative sentiment stemming from Samsung Electronics' shareholder return plan — which emphasized dividends over buybacks and fell short of the market's anticipated 150 trillion won scale — has not been fully digested. As a 2x leveraged product, the ETF amplifies underlying price swings, accelerating the downside move as Samsung shares pulled back.
