■ Stocks Showing Differentiation… Caution Urged in Interpreting Short-Term Swings

Judging from the intraday moves, rather than buying interest flowing into the entire superconductor theme, the stocks appear to be showing differentiation. In particular, the steep declines in Vitzrotech and Shinsung DeltaTech highlight the weakness of major related stocks.

However, it should be noted that the classification of superconductor-related stocks varies widely depending on actual business exposure or the degree of connection to superconducting technology. Some stocks have historically moved together simply because they were bundled into the related theme in past markets, rather than having direct superconductor businesses. Therefore, it is difficult to judge the overall direction of the superconductor industry based solely on the short-term swings of particular stocks.

Going forward, it is necessary to watch whether the trend is accompanied by verifiable catalysts, such as changes in trading volume, individual companies' business disclosures, and research and development announcements.
