  "account": "Samsung Electronics shares experienced a significant rally on Friday, climbing 3.4% to 215,000 won. This surge was driven by a combination of factors, including bargain-hunting, a major domestic investment commitment, and a positive deal-related development. Despite Nvidia's CEO, Jensen Huang, resigning amid leadership turmoil, semiconductor stocks, including Samsung and SK Hynix, managed to rise together in early trading. Analysts attributed this rise to a return to buying in semiconductor names that had previously been impacted by concerns over AI data-center regulation and the Nvidia CEO dismissal saga. Samsung and SK Hynix had already demonstrated resilience in pre-market trading, increasing more than 1% even as the market digested the overnight shock. Furthermore, Samsung was reportedly engaged in discussions to acquire data-center cooling firm Modine, a development that added to the positive sentiment surrounding Samsung's data-center infrastructure narrative. The groundbreaking of a 46 trillion won HBM production facility at Samsung's Onyang campus was another factor fueling investor confidence. This facility, which includes 6 trillion won for factory construction and 40 trillion won for advanced equipment, was the result of a prior day's announcement. The KOSPI opened up more than 2% to 5,452 on the day, with Wall Street falling overnight following the Nvidia CEO resignation.",
