Cathie Wood says Korean semiconductors have entered the buy zone.

Her Q2 13F showed 191 positions worth $15.4 billion, with no memory stocks. She added to computing power: on October 14, CRWV fell 15.46% in a single day, and she picked up 188,700 shares. The $CRWVB on the Binance side represents the same exposure.

On October 16, she told ChosunBiz in an interview in Seoul, “Now really is the right time to enter the buy zone.” Chinese-language media only quoted that line.

But the second half was left out: ARK has consistently avoided commodity memory. The more SK hynix and Samsung Electronics shift toward HBM, the more closely she watches them.

There are only five semiconductor holdings: $AMDB at $823 million, Teradyne at $312 million, Nvidia $NVDAB at $276 million, TSMC at $230 million, and Broadcom at $154 million—for a combined 13.6%. Micron, SanDisk, Seagate, Western Digital, Lam Research, and Applied Materials are all at zero. ARKK and ARKQ’s holdings files still show the same five today.

Don’t take this as a signal to buy the dip in memory stocks. The Philadelphia Semiconductor Index fell for eight straight sessions, shedding 15.74%—that’s an inventory cycle decline. She’s betting that HBM will squeeze out commodity capacity. If it can’t, this buy zone is just talk.

One more thing: Cathie Wood’s timing on buying the dip is usually a little early, so it may be worth waiting before making a move.
