De best presterende, meest volatiele beurs op aarde: Zuid-Korea | BNR Beurs

Entire market = Intel: yesterday's chip loser is today's king War? Chip bubble? Inflation, higher interest rates, and red boards? Oh well, sleep on it for a few nights and you'll be bathing in green again. Welcome to the bull market of 2026. We discuss all the chip losers that ended up in the red on Friday and got their wings back on the stock market today. Intel is making a mega deal with Google. Marvell might just make it into the S&P 500. Broadcom is up because it had been punished enough, and Dutch chip companies also managed to add hefty percentages to their valuations again. Furthermore, we really need to talk about that pack of wildebeest from The Lion King roaming the stock market in South Korea. The Kospi index dropped 8.3 percent last night, wiping out more than 400 billion dollars in wealth in a single evening. Arend Jan explains how he invests in that crazy bunch east of China after all, and naturally, we philosophize for a moment about the end of memory deficits. Incidentally, there is one index that performed much better than those national indices last year. The Euro Stoxx Bank Index easily surpassed South Korea's hefty 75% in 2025. That is why a new boardroom battle is now breaking out in Italy. Rivals Banco BPM and the Spanish Intesa Sanpaolo are vying for the oldest bank in the world: Monte dei Paschi di Siena. Could it actually happen? European banking consolidation, within national borders? We shall see. Also in this episode: How Danish litter picker Zealand Pharma challenged big brother Novo Nordisk and... lost because patients started vomiting en masse Inside trading, as the AFM warns firms involved in mergers and acquisitions that criminals are on the loose trying to extract price-sensitive information. Reason enough for Arend Jan to briefly reminisce about old scandals. Guest: Arend Jan Kamp from Stockwatch.nl and the podcast Het Beurscafé.
