I do like Harmonic Drive (6324) as the Western Leader (eg. harmonic reduction gear) at ~$4.2B MC.
Very large part of robotics/humanoid BOM value.
I actually like Leader Drive more (since it's cheaper for mass production, covers more parts). And maybe Sanhua for $TSLA Optimus.
But prefer to advance Western supply chains with my capital over ones in China.
It's not just profiting off markets, but what you want to get accomplished as well (helping advance US supply chains and Robotics leaders).
These are my calculations - let me know if this is wrong - otherwise we are looking at 2.4B of selling on SK Hynix just from 7709HK alone. Without including in all the other leverage within the KR ecosystem

@Talpxi Fair, hardware has a harder ceiling — no community to bail it out when the story breaks. The bubble anatomy is different even if the entry premium looks similar.
AI hardware hypes just as hard as crypto — different crowd, same premium. The real difference is where the bubble inflates. Circle had no pre-IPO market, so the overvaluation showed up at open. CBRS already got priced in upstream. So shorting CBRS post-IPO and shorting Circle post-open are structurally the same trade: you're fading a valuation that already peaked, just at different points in the price discovery timeline.
The pre-IPO market didn't eliminate the bubble. It moved the bubble earlier — and made it harder to catch if you're only watching the tape.
