First breakthrough of 700 trillion won in market cap of Samsung Group stocks… 1.3 times the national budget next year

[뉴스토마토 우연수 기자] The total market capitalization of Samsung Group stocks increased more than 200 trillion won this year alone, exceeding 700 trillion won for the first time ever. This is the first time that the total market capitalization of a group in Korea has exceeded 700 trillion won.

According to the financial investment industry on the 27th, the market capitalization of 23 Samsung Group stocks (including preferred stocks) listed on the KOSPI and KOSDAQ markets as of the 24th was 719.13 trillion won.

The market cap of Samsung Group stocks is 1.3 times the total budget of Korea (556 trillion won) next year. It is four times that of SK (171 trillion 26 billion won), the second-largest group stock market cap.

As of the end of last year, the market cap of Samsung Group stocks was 5,112 trillion won, which was similar to the Korean budget of 512 trillion won this year (excluding the supplementary budget), but the current market cap exceeded next year’s budget a year later.

This year’s KOSPI index increased by 88.0% from March 19 (382,596 billion won), which was the lowest due to the Corona 19 panic. In the next two months alone, it surged 28.0%.

This is due to the sharp rise in the share price of Samsung Group’s leading stocks, including Samsung Electronics, as the semiconductor industry improved and expectations for dividends matched. Accordingly, the share of the total market capitalization of the securities market also rose 2.3 percentage points from 34.8% at the end of last year to 37.1%.
