Finally decided to start posting instead of just lurking.
I’m mainly interested in defense, space and disruptive technology.
Looking forward to sharing ideas and learning from this community.

"You would think CXMT's price is cheaper than the top three players, which is a wrong assumption. ... Their DRAM is definitely no cheaper than the likes of Samsung,"

SK Hynix, $MU , and Samsung have sold out of 2027 capacity for DRAM/HBM.
$SNDK, Samsung, Micron current annual NAND capacity has been sold out, with Kioxia and SK Hynix expected to finalize allocations by August 2026.
- Customers are being allocated only 60–70% of the volumes they initially requested
- industry insiders pointed out that 2027 will enter the most severe moment of memory shortage
- Allocation amounts are mostly decided, but final shipment pricing will be determined closer to delivery

Hard to see those memory "oversupply" claims in early-mid 2027 when they're all sold out of capacity already.
DRAM and NAND prices hit all-time highs again in July.
According to DRAMeXchange, the average fixed transaction price for PC DRAM DDR4 rose 14.3% month over month to $24. NAND prices also continued their upward trend for the 16th consecutive month.
TrendForce expects PC DRAM prices to rise another 15-20% in the third quarter. This is due to memory suppliers reducing PC DRAM supply to prioritize CSP server demand.
The memory market remains tight as AI demand pulls capacity toward high-bandwidth and server applications.

Samsung, SK Hynix, and Micron are the main beneficiaries of this pricing environment.
How long do you expect PC DRAM prices to keep rising before supply adjustments ease the pressure?
