Samsung makes record profits, but loses over $100 billion in market value

Samsung Electronics, a South Korean technology giant, reported record operational profits for the April-June quarter, driven by high demand for memory chips used in artificial intelligence development. Despite these strong financial results, investors reacted negatively by selling shares en masse, causing the company’s market value to drop by over $100 billion, according to Reuters. The company projected operating profit for the quarter at around €51 billion, nearly 19 times higher than the same period last year. This marks the third consecutive quarter of record results for Samsung, with profits exceeding those of the past three years combined. Samsung is expected to release its full financial report on July 30, which will provide clearer signals about whether the current growth in the memory industry represents a structural change in the market or just another temporary cycle of demand.
