The South Korean economy slowed significantly during the second half of 2022, with GDP contracting by 0.4% quarter-on-quarter (q/q) in the fourth quarter of 2022. South Korea's manufacturing sector remained in contraction territory at the start of 2023, according to latest PMI data from S&P Global, as another contraction in new orders drove output volumes down.

South Korea's Economy Faces Rising Headwinds In 2023

Weakness in the EWY over recent years has seen the PE ratio on the index fall below 10x, which is significantly below its developed market peers.

Samsung, SK Hynix, and other South Korean semiconductor companies are the basis for the Won and an indicator of consumer demand across the world. Consumer confidence is falling, and now semiconductor inventories are suddenly rising which is a bad signal for exports.

EWY Is A Semicondcutor Bet When Inventories Are Soaring

EWY invests in South Korean equities. The ETF is likely undervalued based on forward earnings, however, it has been selling off, owing to a weaker South Korean won, and cyclically out-of-favour sector exposures.

Brazil has lagged global markets in the past month. But, for investors seeing the potential to buy the dip, one market expert has a warning.

The EWY appears to be digesting the strong gains seen over the past year or so, and with valuations near record highs, I am awaiting a deeper correction. The fund's 0.59% expense ratio and low dividend yield mean that capital gains are needed to generate strong returns, and after such a strong rally, valuations are stretched.
