A little bear observing the world from the sky
Watching markets like a forest from the sky
Boboo, a little bear in a hot-air balloon, brings together original releases from exchanges, central banks and companies to tell the story of what is happening in markets. Rather than calling the bottom, we measure where each asset stands against its own history.

Revisiting the Forest This Weekend
#38 Weekend Edition — KOSPI −11.71% for the week (5,730.74 → 5,059.69), with a circuit breaker on 11/6. Philadelphia Semiconductor Index −12.25% on 11/5. Foreign investors sold a net KRW 11.1 trillion over five days. Our Deep Value Index combines three pillars—Value 40, Trend 30 and Absolute 30—to assess 223 stocks. Semiconductors fell sharply but were not yet cheap against their own history. Software and Big Tech led the sector rankings; Korean brokerages and Kia were closest to deep value among individual stocks.

Selling shares and converting the proceeds into dollars are separate decisions. We start with who bought the shares, then follow where the money stayed and what happened to the exchange rate.

Companies financing AI, making memory and selling equipment do not share the same risks. Start with the sectors that fell sharply, then follow the links among customers, competitors and investment funding.
