Movement Alert|SK Telecom Falls 7.18% in Pre-Market Trading, AI Concept Hype Fully Unwound as Prior Gains Retraced

Market Focus06-22

On June 22, SK Telecom fell 7.18% in pre-market trading, trading at $34.0/share, with turnover of $46,700. The decline represents a continuation of the stock's post-hype correction following a speculative surge tied to AI-related catalysts earlier in the month.

On the news front, the stock had surged over 19% on June 2 after Anthropic secretly filed its IPO prospectus, as SK Telecom gained market attention in its capacity as an investor in the AI company. However, since June 4 the stock has been in persistent decline. Although NVIDIA and SK Group announced a multi-year AI cooperation agreement on June 8, which briefly lifted shares approximately 5%, sustained buying interest failed to materialize. The stock has now fallen below its pre-AI-hype price level, with the entirety of the June 2 rally fully retraced, indicating the market is repricing the stock on a more rational basis.

Within the Wireless Telecommunication Services sector, the overall performance remains muted. Among peers, T-Mobile US down 0.37%, while Millicom International Cellular, Telephone and Data, Rogers, and Gogo were all flat, reflecting a lack of sector-wide support.
