SK hynix's internal analysis indicates that the supply growth of DRAM (dynamic random-access memory) will remain tight until 2028. This analysis suggests that the demand for DRAM chips will continue to outpace supply for the next few years. The shortage in DRAM supply could potentially impact various industries that rely on these memory chips for their products. This forecast highlights the importance of strategic planning and investment in semiconductor manufacturing to address the ongoing supply constraints in the DRAM market.

Samsung and SK hynix warn AI-driven memory shortages could last until 2027 and beyond, as HBM demand explodes — customers already reserving supply years ahead, while the wider DRAM market begins to tighten

Samsung and SK hynix are warning of AI-driven memory shortages potentially lasting until 2027 and beyond, with HBM demand surging. The companies are struggling to meet demand as customers reserve supply years in advance, impacting the broader DRAM market. The shortages are fueled by the need for high-speed memory in AI infrastructure, particularly HBM, which is challenging to manufacture. Despite efforts to develop alternative memory technologies, the demand for existing memory remains overwhelming, prompting companies to invest in expanding production capacity. The memory crunch is part of a larger trend of resource shortages in the tech industry due to the rapid growth of AI infrastructure.

US stops exports of tools to China’s number two chip maker — Hua Hong and Huali Microelectronics reportedly on the cusp of starting a 7-nm fab in Shanghai

US stops exports of tools to China’s number two chip maker — Hua Hong and Huali Microelectronics reportedly on the cusp of starting a 7-nm fab in Shanghai

The US Department of Commerce has instructed toolmakers to cease exports to Hua Hong, China's second-largest chipmaker, which is gearing up to establish a 7-nm production line in Shanghai. This move is part of the US strategy to impede China's semiconductor self-sufficiency efforts. Companies like TSMC and ASML have also faced restrictions in providing advanced services to Chinese tech firms. The ban on exports could strain US-China relations, impacting both Chinese companies' progress and potential losses for American toolmakers.

More details emerge about how Intel now earns more revenue from each wafer by looking to the edges — analyst reports say reduced yield variability across each wafer leads to more sellable CPUs

More details emerge about how Intel now earns more revenue from each wafer by looking to the edges — analyst reports say reduced yield variability across each wafer leads to more sellable CPUs

Intel has seen improved revenue per wafer by reducing yield variability across each wafer, resulting in more sellable CPUs. The company's focus on tightening yield distribution across the wafer edges has led to increased margins and productivity. By implementing edge-specific process correction methods, Intel can extract more high-quality and sellable dies from a single wafer. These improvements are node-independent and have been attributed to disciplined execution improvements under new manufacturing leadership. Intel's efforts have led to better output and demand for CPUs, with even lower-quality chips now being sold as viable products.

Taiwan's stock market surpasses the UK's despite having less than a quarter of the UK's economy — AI boom propels Taiwan forward, TSMC alone accounts for more than 40% of Taiwan's total market value

Taiwan's stock market has surpassed the UK's in value, driven by the global demand for AI chips. TSMC alone accounts for over 40% of Taiwan's total market value, with a market cap of around $1.98 trillion. Taiwan's Financial Supervisory Commission has raised the single-stock investment cap for local equity funds, benefiting companies like TSMC. TSMC reported record earnings and plans to expand to meet AI demand. South Korea's market is also thriving, with Samsung and SK hynix leading the charge in the semiconductor industry.
