SK Group’s combined market capitalization on the South Korean stock market surpassed KRW2,000 trillion (US$1.32 trillion) for the first time as of the June 16 close, driven by strength in AI memory demand and a high-profile visit by Nvidia’s CEO that reinforced ties with SK Hynix and broader AI infrastructure plans. According to reports from SBS, YTN, ET News and Yonhap, the group’s 19 listed subsidiaries reached a combined market value of KRW2,019.6 trillion, a 2.5% increase from the previous trading day.
