Samsung top pick for retail investors after US election
Retail investors scooped up 2.33 trillion won ($1.67 billion) worth of Samsung Electronics stocks since the U.S. presidential election, the country's main bourse said on Sunday.
Samsung has launched a new 5G smartphone ‘Galaxy Wide5’ in South Korea. It is a mid-range phone with a MediaTek chipset, an AMOLED display, and a triple-camera setup.
Samsung is planning to announce the Galaxy F42 5G (model number SM-E426B-DS) in India. Since the F42 5G’s model number is similar to the Wide5, it appears that the F42 5G could be a rebranded edition of the Wide5.
The Samsung Galaxy Wide5 is priced at 449,900 South Korean won (roughly Rs 28,200) for the sole 6GB/128GB variant.
