Why SKHY dropped

The stock exploded higher around its July Nasdaq debut, then gave back gains as brokerage notes (Korea Investment & Securities, Goldman Sachs) warned HBM memory chip pricing may be softer than expected and Samsung's HBM4 ramp threatens SK hynix's lead, on top of a broader AI-stock and Korean chip-sector selloff.
