Fortunately, South Korea's Samsung and Hynix had a good start when the market opened, but now news of an Iranian attack is breaking. T_T T_T

Iran has fired ballistic missiles again toward US military bases in the Middle East.
According to a statement from the US Central Command (CENTCOM) on July 28 (US Eastern Time), Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) launched a surprise attack with multiple ballistic missiles targeting US military bases in the Middle East, including Jordan.
Summary of key details - Attack Situation: The US military successfully intercepted all of these missile attacks, and no damage on the US side was immediately reported.

Background: Recently, the US military and Iran had maintained a lull (a temporary pause in attacks), stopping military exchanges for about five days. This launch is the first direct attack carried out by Iran that breaks this lull.

Impact: Although US President Donald Trump mentioned the possibility of diplomatic negotiations with Iran during the period of paused airstrikes, military tensions in the Middle East are escalating rapidly once again due to this attack.

I was hoping Hynix would go up a bit after its earnings release... the stock market will probably be in turmoil again tomorrow…

Hynix is doing a really poor job with the conference call.

Earnings results: Q2 operating profit in the 60 trillion won range recorded (all-time record quarterly performance). Driven by expanding AI (artificial intelligence) demand, it surpassed last year's annual operating profit (47.2063 trillion won). In Q2 2026, on a consolidated basis, it recorded revenue of 79.3187 trillion won and operating profit of 60.5426 trillion won. Compared to the same period last year, revenue increased by 257% and operating profit by 557%. Both revenue and operating profit reached all-time highs. (Operating profit increased by more than 22 trillion won from the previous record high of 37.6103 trillion won in Q1.) Is it falling because clear guidance wasn't provided...

Hynix's performance also falls short of expectations.

Still, all the futures market indices are positive right now? I guess it doesn't matter.

It went up further into positive territory and then turned down. Looks like it'll turn negative soon.

Right now, there's also breaking news that the US and Saudi Arabia carried out airstrikes on Iranian weapons facilities located in Iraq…
It seems like a retaliation for Iran's attack.
I wonder if this war is ever really going to end..
