According to foreign media reports, after entering the second half of the year, due to increased concern about the economic downturn led to a decline in demand for consumer electronics, the memory chip market has also been affected by the double decline in demand and prices, Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix, the two major memory chip manufacturers have also been affected, the impact of performance is obvious, SK Hynix’s revenue and net profit fell year-on-year ring, of which net profit fell by more than 60%.
Although the overall storage chip market is not optimistic, but a research institute in the report said that the demand for some areas of the storage chip market, or growth, the server DRAM demand is growing, in this year is expected to exceed the demand for mobile devices such as smartphones, tablets DRAM for the first time.
However, there are reports that the server demand for memory chips, in the next year is also expected to be affected, when the memory chip manufacturers will face new challenges, there will be greater pressure on performance.
Related media reports said that as North America’s first-tier cloud server customer demand for storage, from late in the third quarter has begun to decline, storage chip manufacturers are expected to see a deceleration in orders in the first quarter of next year.
In the case of reduced demand for storage chips needed for consumer electronics, storage chip makers will face greater challenges if the storage chips needed for servers, as manufacturers are expected to do, begin to decline in the first quarter of next year.
