Research institutions had previously predicted that the global demand for DRAM (dynamic random access memory) in the first half of last year was driven by the rise in demand for home office devices, enterprise computing systems, and data center servers due to the pandemic.
There were also increases and costs rebounded, but in the second half of the year, prices fell.
Industry chain people also revealed in the third quarter of last year that due to the decline in demand, the average inventory of DRAM and NAND flash memory of major memory chip producers was close to 4 months, and prices are expected to decline by 10% in the fourth quarter.
Judging from the current situation, the price of memory chips may soon stop falling and begin to rise. DRAM producerNanya Technology is expected to start rising in the first quarter.
Nanya Technology expects that the cost of DRAM will start to rise in the first quarter because of tight market supply and short supply. The trend of price increases will continue into the second quarter.
It is worth noting that the price of DRAM began to rise in the first quarter, which is also in line with the expectations previously reported by foreign media. At the beginning of the fourth quarter of last year.
As per the report, industry chain sources that the average selling cost of memory chips is supposed to stop falling in the first quarter of this year, and there are signs that it will stabilize in the following quarter.
