The memory chip superstar will deliver a highly anticipated earnings report Wednesday afternoon.

South Korean stocks bounced back Wednesday from the previous day's rout, while the rest of Asia battled to recover from a region-wide sell-off amid lingering concern about the AI spending boom.While no specific catalyst was blamed for the selling, analysts said it illustrated the growing concern on trading floors about the extended valuations of tech firms, who have been the key driver of a rally to record highs in several markets globally.

SK Hynix's overtaking of Samsung Electronics to become South Korea's most valuable firm was the culmination of 14 years of bets that brought it skepticism and scorn but ultimately put it at the centre of the global AI gold rush.
