On June 25, CSOP Samsung Electronics 2x Leveraged ETF (07747.HK) rose 10.5% in regular trading, trading at 198.05 HKD/share, with turnover of approximately 109 million HKD.
On the news front, Samsung Electronics is preparing to buy back shares worth approximately 90 trillion KRW to fund special performance bonuses for employees. Under a prior agreement reached with its labor union, Samsung is required to pay bonuses in the form of company stock, necessitating the large-scale repurchase. The total post-tax value of stock-based bonuses to be distributed to employees is estimated at around 93 trillion KRW.
Boosted by this development, Samsung Electronics shares surged over 8% on the Korean market, with the KOSPI index also climbing nearly 3%. The rally in Samsung's underlying shares directly lifted related leveraged ETF products listed in Hong Kong, with CSOP Samsung Electronics 2x Leveraged and CSOP SK Hynix 2x Leveraged both posting strong gains in tandem.
