GLM-5.3 FULL weights still gated into Fri 28 Aug — no overnight drop

At ~07:50 HKT Fri 28 Aug, zai-org/GLM-5.3 remains an “Upcoming release” page dated August 28, 2026 with a live countdown (~15 hours remaining when checked; ~524 waitlist). Planned artifact is still only zai-org/GLM-5.3. The 14 Aug z.ai blog still says full weights will be public “soon in two weeks” after safety hardening; no new overnight blog confirming a drop. GLM-5.3-Flash weights remain available under MIT.

Watch HF + z.ai through the Fri session. Full open weights would be the next China-AI catalyst after Flash; until the repo flips from Upcoming, treat as still gated. HK tape (02513) already repriced Flash on Thursday (see SCMP).

Hugging Face

Zhipu (Z.AI) +12% to HK$1,160 as Ox Alpha unmasked as GLM-5.3-Flash on 100k China chips

SCMP: Zhipu said GLM-5.3-Flash (stealth-tested as Ox Alpha) ran entirely on a cluster of 100,000 domestically produced chips; OpenRouter/OpenCode processed ~62 trillion tokens before the formal Wed release; OpenRouter first-3-day volume >11T tokens (platform’s biggest launch). OpenRouter Thu data: model #1 among coding systems at 10.3T tokens (~31% of weekly volume). Zhipu shares closed >12% higher at HK$1,160 on Thursday.

NEW vs prior Flash-MIT note: Thu equity reprice plus explicit domestic-silicon inference scale. China AI inference path less NVDA-dependent. Watch MiniMax/Zhipu into Fri and any NVDA-China share-loss narrative.

SK hynix breaks ground on Indiana HBM advanced-packaging hub

Yonhap, West Lafayette 27 Aug: groundbreaking for first US next-gen HBM advanced packaging fab; investment estimated >US$4bn. Cleanroom targeted by Oct 2028; mass production of next-gen HBM from 2H 2029 with HBM4E volume from 3Q 2029; annual capacity “hundreds of thousands of wafers”; ~1,000 staff at commercial ops. Korea-made wafers ship to Indiana for packaging/test then “made-in-USA” supply to US big tech (e.g. Nvidia). CHIPS Act: up to $458m grant + $500m loans. CEO Kwak Noh-Jung, SK VCs, Amb. Kang, Ind. Gov. Braun, Sen. Todd Young attended. Company newsroom dated Seoul 28 Aug.

Structural US HBM node for the NVDA ecosystem. Long-dated (2028–29) but politically sticky — supportive for the SKHY/000660 friendshoring premium, not a same-day DART. Wafers still made in Korea.

Yonhap

KOSPI +1.53% to 6,912.37 on NVDA; faded after BOK hike. Hynix +2.49%

Yonhap LEAD, Seoul 27 Aug: KOSPI closed +104.16 pts / +1.53% at 6,912.37 after opening +2.76% to 6,996.12 on the NVDA beat, then trimming on the BOK hike. Volume light: 265.5m shares / ₩22.5tn. Losers 537 vs winners 316. Retail net sold ₩1.91tn; foreigners + institutions combined net bought ₩318.2bn. Samsung Electronics +1.72% to ₩266,000; SK hynix +2.49% to ₩1,730,000. Won ₩1,380.9/USD as of 15:30, up ₩3.9. Daishin: seesaw between Nvidia and the BOK board.

First Seoul cash reprice of the NVDA print was constructive for 000660/Samsung but faded from open highs into the hike. Foreign/inst still net buyers vs heavy retail. Do not treat Fri PREOPEN as a live gap.

SK to sell 49% of Ulsan AI data center to KKR + Korean PE for ~$2.2bn

KED: SK Group to sign SPA selling 49% of the SK–AWS Ulsan AI DC — KKR 29%, IMM Investment + Stonebridge 20%; SK Telecom keeps 51%. ~₩3tn ($2.2bn); ~₩1.2tn via capital increase; post-deal EV up to ₩7tn. SKT/SK Broadband boards expected Thursday to approve SPA + DC spinoff. Mipo, Ulsan: ~40 MW 2027 → ~100 MW 2029; ~60k GPUs; path to 1 GW. Group still targets up to 15 GW AI DC by 2035. Rest of some KED pages paywall after the lede; this item’s body was retrieved.

De-risks SKT AI-infra capex and brings global PE into a Korea GPU build. Supportive SK-ecosystem overlay (memory pull), not a 000660 filing. Parent of SK Hynix, not the chipco itself.

KED Global

NVDA: first H200s to China, but <1% of DC sales; Q3 still assumes $0 China DC compute

SCMP: Nvidia confirmed first H200 data-centre shipments to China under US licenses after months of lockout; sales <1% of ~$89bn Q2 data-centre revenue. Prior quarter had zero China Hopper DC shipments. Q3 revenue guide $108bn ±2% still assumes no China data-centre computing revenue. Separate notes: ~$400m H200 inventory charge over the past six months as China blocked full licensed volume.

NVDA-China reopening is optically positive but numerically tiny and not in the guide. Keeps a premium on domestic China AI silicon (Zhipu 100k-chip claim) and on Korean HBM demand outside China.

SCMP

BOK hikes +25 bp to 3.0% (2nd straight); lifts 2026 growth to 3.3%

Yonhap 3rd LD: Base Rate 2.75% → 3.0% (highest since Jan 2025); first back-to-back hikes since Jan 2023. 6–1 vote (Hwang Kun-il dissented for a hold). Growth outlook raised to 3.3% for 2026 from 2.6% (2027 2.9%); CPI forecasts kept at 2.7%/2.3%. Gov. Shin: preemptive vs inflation/financial-stability risks; forward-guidance chart skewed toward another move to 3.25% over the next ~6 months. Won still “very weak” historically; a stronger won is desirable.

Chip-export strength funds a hawkish BOK even as KOSPI rallied on NVDA. Higher-for-longer KR rates and a stronger-won bias are the overlay on 000660/Samsung into the Fri open.

Yonhap

NVDA +8.7% overnight; HSI still range-bound. MiniMax +3.83%, Z.AI led

HKET invest live strip 04:02 28 Aug HKT: Nvidia +8.7% after the print, SOX +2.3% to 11,882. HSI full-week range still <400 pts. Separate 28 Aug columns (AI hardware rebound, “semiconductor prices hard to fall”) sat on the homepage; full bodies not retrieved. Thu HK close (secondary, because HKET CloudFront blocked a full crawl): Hang Seng −87.23 pts / −0.34% to 25,565.74; HSTECH −0.13% to 4,620.29. Z.AI (02513) +12.62%; MiniMax-W (00100) +3.83%.

US AI-hardware bid overnight vs a sleepy HSI. China AI listed complex diverged (Zhipu/MiniMax). Fri watch is GLM-5.3 full-weight gate plus the Seoul open, not a HSI break.

HKET

SKHYUSDT vs SKHYNIX/10 premium + BN funding

Share-equivalent hedge is 10 SKHY per 1 SKHYNIX. Dollar hedge leaves leftover Hynix beta. Indiana is packaging, not a convert-arb print.

28 Aug 07:50 HKT. BN SKHY 160.41 fund +0.51bp/8h; BN SKHYNIX 1231.9 fund 0 (last special −2.15bp at 07:00 HKT). HL xyz:SKHY mid 160.34 fund +0.63bp/h (~+5.0 bp/8h); xyz:SKHX mid 1232.35 fund −6.06bp/h (~−48.5 bp/8h). Basis HL−BN SKHY −5.4 bp, SKHX +3.2 bp. Next 08:00 HKT. 8h $100k vs ~$280 RT taker. ADS-scale 8h prints (~$5) do not clear RT. HL SKHX hourly negative is large on paper (~$48.5/8h if it held) but hourly rates mean-revert — no new BN–HL sit that clears RT on the next print.

Seoul paper rule did not fire Tue–Thu (Thu KRX +2.49%, prem +29.0%; both legs fail). Cash 000660 opens 09:00 KST — not live yet. Paper only.

SK hynix Indiana HBM packaging groundbreaking (Yonhap, filed 28 Aug KST). SK Group to sell 49% of Ulsan AI DC to KKR/IMM/Stonebridge ~$2.2bn (KED) — parent/SKT, not 000660. KED: Meta exploring ≥₩1tn KRW bond (lede only; rest paywalled). Samsung Biologics 207940 rights ~₩3.0tn is the 09:00 KST gap keep. Union wage-reject still in the older tape.

SK hynix NAND productivity gap vs Samsung; 176-layer still ~50%

Korean media via Jukan: 176-layer still ~50% of Hynix NAND output in 2Q vs Samsung 236-layer >60%; cost disadvantage, fewer bits/wafer. Micron 232L 53% + 276L 33%; YMTC 232L 68%. Kioxia/Sandisk BiCS8 share tripled to 24%. Hynix NAND revenue share (incl Solidigm) 21.4% in 4Q → 16.4% in 1Q while YMTC 11.5%→16.2%. Analysts: process-transition delay, not just volume; earnings impact limited given rising NAND prices.

Tape: SKHY-relevant NAND mix. Confirms the YMTC/Samsung catch-up overlay. Bits/wafer lag is real; HBM is still the P&L. Not a 000660 DART.

GB200 vs GB300 vs VR200 value chain (Meritz)

Jukan posts a Meritz chart comparing GB200 / GB300 / VR200 suppliers across PCB, CCL, copper foil, fiberglass.

tweet

Marvell: CXL at scale; memory scarcity; CPO/NPO coexist

From Marvell’s call via Jukan: CXL now deployed at scale by multiple hyperscalers; inference demand + memory scarcity expanding use; more design wins. Scale-up optics accelerated beyond ~$300m FY28 outlook incl $150m from Celestial AI CPO; CPO and NPO coexist. Surging memory prices drive fungibility across compute/networking/memory. $MRVL.

Tape: memory-scarcity confirmation from a networking/custom-silicon name. Supportive SKHY/MU; optics is a parallel attach, not a HBM cut.

tweet

Jackson Hole macro memo is out

Citrini: published this morning. “Fun read before Jackson Hole — might give you an interesting lens through which to view Warsh’s words.” QT of the standing memo tying bank liquidity regs, Bessent twist, Warsh JH theme.

SK hynix CEO: memory shortage through end-2030

Jukan (Newsis): “SK HYNIX CEO: MEMORY SHORTAGE TO PERSIST THROUGH THE END OF 2030.” Same-day as the Indiana groundbreaking. No extra numbers on the tweet.

Tape: core SKHY item. Extends the shortage narrative well past the usual 2027–28 window. Pairs with Indiana (supply response, 2028–29) rather than contradicting it. Not a DART.

tweet

AJ: NVDA “high chance of ripping/rerating.” Bullseye. HC ftw

AJ quotes the “Nvidia has a high chance of ripping/rerating” line and scores it. HC promo in the next tweet not a second card.

Tape: Confirms they are still long the NVDA/AI-infra pack after the AH dip buy. No new numbers. NVDA +8.7% overnight (HKET) is the tape.

tweet

XPeng VLA 2.0 takes a ferry; “very impressive, give it another year”

AJ QTs XPENG: all-new VLA 2.0 ferry challenge, then a pedestrian/bike NGP clip. “Very impressive. Now give it another year.” Separate 00:32 FSD-as-commodity-in-5-years QT of Avride Austin is the TSLA-fade overlay, not a second XPEV card.

Tape: continues long-XPEV / fade-TSLA autonomy-gap. Unchanged vs the 25 Aug VLA 630 card, but this is a new demo print.

tweet

LRCX will sell “sooo many etchers” in the next 12 months

QT Jack Farley: analysts expect Lam Research to grow only 19% Sep26→Sep27, too low. Zephyr: LOL, LRCX will sell so many etchers.

Google + Nvidia ≈ 45GW of compute next year

Zephyr: between Google and Nvidia, around 45GW of compute added next year. Behind-the-meter power “goes brrrr.” 21:40 3D DRAM/node-conversion reply folded here.

Tape: SKHY-relevant. Units/GW still up even if HBM-per-GPU can fall (pairs with 13:30 ABF). Power is the other bottleneck.

tweet

ABF/PCB-CCL the 2027 bottleneck; they can cut HBM per GPU

Self-QT Dec-2025 ABF long: ABF substrates & PCB/CCL biggest constraints for 2027. NVDA or Google can reduce HBM per GPU and DRAM per server to ship more; they cannot work around ABF/PCB.

Tape: SKHY-relevant. Bottleneck rotates from HBM to substrate. HBM-per-GPU can fall — mixed 000660 bits vs still-up GPU units. Pairs with 25 Aug Ajinomoto film shortage.

tweet

NVDA FQ2 EPS $2.22 vs $2.09 Street; AJ $2.21 off one cent

NVDA FQ2 (qtr ending Jul 2026) non-GAAP EPS $2.22 vs $2.09 Street; AJ $2.21, off one cent.

QT Wall St Engine: NVDA rev/GW Hopper $18B, Grace Blackwell $25B, Vera Rubin $40B; total DC capex/GW $30B→$60B. Zephyr: why the $80–100B/GW pump a few weeks ago? Follow-up reply 2092735063125631176: “Huh?? Vera Rubin: $40B”.

Tape: Does not re-NEW last night’s Rubin rack $32B/GW card. Intensity still up (memory is why) but Jensen’s $80–100B was the high print; $40B NVDA-rev / $60B total is the call-number. Mixed vs prior hype, still bullish vs Hopper.

tweet

NVHBM / NVLink Fusion — “I like this”

QT NVIDIA AI Infra: NVLink Fusion expansion with NVHBM — next-gen HBM, memory controller in the 3D stack. Amazon Annapurna Labs first, with AWS custom silicon.

Tape: Custom HBM is the SKHY/Samsung tell. Pairs with Jukan’s NVHBM spec post. AWS as first attach is a second buyer besides NVDA GPU. Supportive 000660/HBM.

tweet

Custom NVHBM: +30% BW vs HBM4E (SKHY trademark)

QT same NVHBM/NVLink Fusion note. Specs vs HBM4E: +30% BW, −15% HBM power, +25% XPU die area. Reply tape: SKHY filed NVHBM trademark KR Jul 31 2025 / US Aug 8 2025; NVDA $279bn supply commits (from $119bn), primarily memory.

Tape: Core SKHY item. Custom stack + controller-in-HBM is a Hynix-shaped spec; trademark is not proof of sole-source. Widens qualified HBM attach (AWS/Annapurna) rather than cutting SKHY out.

tweet

Jensen: ROIC <1y on $50B data centers

QT P Equity Research / Jensen: “I heard the other day that return on investment capital is now less than a year. We're talking about $50 billion data centers.”

Kioxia ¥1tn ($6.27bn) third NAND fab, Iwate

Nikkei: Kioxia ¥1tn ($6.27bn) third NAND fab, Iwate. Production start after 2029 per reply. Same-minute link-card 2092752550663700635 not a second story.

Tape: NAND supply response, same overlay as last night’s YMTC IPO/crown tape. 2029 start is not near-term bits; still the SKHY/Samsung/WDC/SNDK overhang if the cycle stays tight into 27–28. Do not re-NEW YMTC.

NVDA asks HBM4 12-high → 8-high; Samsung/SKHY mix shift

Zdnet Korea via Jukan: Nvidia asked suppliers to change primary HBM4 config from 12-high to 8-high (thermal on Rubin, 12-high yield loss). HBM4E likely 8-high-centric for Rubin Ultra. Source: not a demand downgrade — system-level config.

Tape: mix shift, not demand cut. 8-high eases yield, lowers per-unit DRAM content. Watch bits vs ASP. SKHY/MU/NVDA chain.

QT of Jukan’s YMTC post. Thread reply: 3–5yr fab time makes 2027 crown aggressive and a price war likely. Zephyr did not push back.

Tape: structural NAND oversupply risk 2027+. Negative Samsung/SKHY NAND mix; positive China semicap.

tweet

YMTC aims for global NAND crown by end-2027

FT: overtake Samsung and SK Hynix. Shanghai IPO last week to raise Rmb33bn ($5bn) for fabs/R&D. Jukan: “faster than I expected.” Distinct from this morning’s YMTC/CXMT ex-China item.

Tape: medium-term NAND pricing risk for SKHY, Samsung, WDC/SNDK.

tweet

Dylan Patel: OpenAI profitable in Q3

Dwarkesh clip: Codex / 5.6. Top reply: “on a non-GAAP basis.”

Tape: AI-capex sustainability bid if it sticks. Supportive NVDA/AVGO/memory.

tweet

Jalapeño: design moat erodes, manufacturing remains

Barrier to chip design is collapsing. Manufacturing is the remaining moat — until robots. Who benefits as the design moat erodes.

Tape: rotation thesis — long TSMC / HBM / ABF-packaging; fade pure design premium (NVDA, ARM, AMD).

tweet

Labs co-design silicon faster than Nvidia/AMD

Because they have cutting-edge internal models. QT: GPT-Astra helped develop Jalapeño; Codex+GPT-Astra for kernels. Background: Jalapeño claimed better perf/$ and perf/W than Vera Rubin NVL72, Samsung HBM4.

Tape: custom-ASIC share-gain vs merchant GPU. Negative-at-the-margin NVDA/AMD into earnings week.

tweet

YMTC/CXMT pushing memory outside China

DigiTimes: raising the share of memory shipped ex-China. YMTC selling NAND to third-party module makers for enterprise drives. Apple evaluating CXMT/YMTC; possible US green light around Sept Trump–Xi.

Tape: China memory finding indirect NA cloud routes. Medium-term NAND/DRAM overhang — MU, 000660, Samsung.

tweet

Jalapeño chip in nine months

“It's amazing that they managed to develop the chip in just nine months.”

Tape: design-cycle compression is the shock, not the spec sheet. NVDA moat-narrowing.

tweet

Jalapeño-bullish-Cerebras argument — Jukan doesn’t buy it

Flags the idea that Jalapeño forces Meta/AWS to adopt Cerebras more aggressively. Not his view.

Tape: watch CBRS chatter and META/AMZN accelerator capex. Not a bid.

tweet

Ajinomoto ABF film shortage — AI/high-end first, 2Q26 full

Meritz channel checks: Ajinomoto tells customers of acute ABF film shortage, prioritizing AI/high-end. 2Q26 ABF lines already at full utilization.

Tape: AI-server substrate bottleneck. Positive ABF/substrate names; risk to non-AI package supply.

tweet

CXMT seen as key LPDDR6 supplier for Xiaomi Xring O3

Chinese media: CXMT expected to be a key LPDDR6 supplier for Xiaomi’s Xring O3.

Tape: CXMT moving up the LPDDR stack. Medium-term mobile-DRAM pricing risk for Samsung/SKHY.

tweet

XPeng VLA 630: gap is nowhere near 4–5 years

QT of @thinkercar on XPeng 2nd-gen VLA 630 upgrade. “Not a one horse race.”

Tape: continues the long-XPEV / fade-TSLA autonomy-gap trade.

tweet

Cybertruck +6–7% after volume collapse

Standard & Premium hike, framed as loss-per-unit repair. AJ: TSLA sells Cybertrucks at ~cost.

Tape: TSLA demand-side negative. Pricing is margin defense, not strength.

tweet

Qwen 3.8 Flash Next tomorrow — Qwen 4 architecture

125B params + 51B N-gram, 6B active. Releasing tomorrow.

Tape: China open-weight cadence. Supports BABA / Alibaba-ecosystem AI.

tweet

Blackwell getting killed at higher interactivity

Caveat: labs don’t serve users at 100+ tps/user.

Tape: mild NVDA-bear datapoint vs inference-ASIC narrative into earnings week.

tweet

Macro memo: bank liquidity regs, Bessent twist, Warsh Jackson Hole

Stayed up writing it. Not published yet. Joke Bessent post skipped.

tweet

US asked Seoul to build memory fabs in the US

Per local Korean media (Chosun): the U.S. government asked the South Korean government to build memory fabs in the U.S. and ensure stable memory supply.

Tape: onshore capex/cost risk for Samsung/Hynix after Monday’s dump; supply-security bid for US memory/equipment. Not a DART print.

tweet

Samsung + SK Hynix step up NAND capex in China

Samsung converting local lines to latest NAND; Hynix adding ~30k wpm H2'26–2027 (zdnet.co.kr).

Tape: NAND capex upcycle; supply risk 2027 NAND pricing. Mildly negative memory-price bulls, positive equipment; SKHY China NAND mix.

tweet

XPeng left for dead: −71% vs market while launching humanoids + global FSD

Deep dive at ajinvestmentresearch.com (+ paid HC follow-up). AJ rotating anti-TSLA / pro-China-EV into a long XPEV thesis.

Tape: dir-up XPEV / mixed vs TSLA. Earlier 20:22 HKT XPeng GM vs TSLA is before cutoff — not a NEW card.

tweet

GROQ 3 LPX in Full Production LFG

QT Wall St Engine: NVDA Groq 3 LPX low-latency inference extending Vera Rubin NVL72 in full production.

Tape: bullish NVDA inference; supports +15% accelerator hike.

tweet

#SamsungFoundry QT of Groq 3 LPX

Groq 3 LPX maybe Samsung Foundry — a foundry offset to Samsung −8.7%.

Tape: 005930 foundry color, not a bits print. Paired with Zephyr Groq 3 LPX full-production QT.

tweet

“What happened? Has another one of Leopold's funds blown up?”

AI-fund blow-up chatter. No ticker named in the post.

Tape: mixed. Overlay on NVDA week / AI-hardware bid, not a SKHY print.

tweet

Xiaomi bonding 50μm→1.4μm — “who is actually stacking this chip??”

“Extremely similar to Huawei's Logic Folding.” Advanced packaging / China stacking. Just before the 21:30 HKT cutoff; not on last evening strip (that had the 15:52 HKT TSMC-fab question).

Tape: China stacking color. Not a SKHY print.

tweet

Long XBI Short QQQ?

No new public post overnight. Exact standing text unchanged. Pin is the 2022 $SIVB short.

Tape: long biotech vs mega-cap tech. Unchanged vs the AI-hardware bid / NVDA week.

tweet

TSLA Cybercab: “none of which has been priced in, right?”

Evening still-live. Sarcastic fade of a bull arguing EV/FSD/Megapack/Semi ramps are real. Treats the Cybercab event as already in the price.

Tape: leftover, not NEW. Still fading TSLA into the event; AM add is the long-XPEV leg above.

tweet

Morning NEW pass. Cutoff newer than 21:45 HKT 27 Aug. Home on. Evening NEW kept, not re-NEW.

• NEW: Jukan SKHY CEO memory shortage through 2030; NAND 176L gap vs Samsung; Marvell CXL/CPO; GB200/300/VR200 chain.
• NEW: AJ NVDA ripping/rerating + XPeng ferry VLA 2.0. Citrini Jackson Hole memo published. Zephyr LRCX etchers.
• Home: FirstSquawk/WSJ “Nvidia halts revenue-sharing agreements with AI cloud providers.” Trump/NVDA record-sales clip. Culture-war skipped.
• Evening kept: AJ NVDA HC deep-dive; Citrini ATH; Zephyr 45GW; Jukan Rasgon/Meta KRW/tariffs/SEMCO/CXMT. BowTied lifestyle skipped.

Overall: risk-on, confidence medium (NVDA +8.7% US, SKHY CEO shortage-to-2030, Seoul chips +1.5%; BOK hike and NAND-gap are the fade). JSON: x-feed.json
