SK hynix drops 5% after approving $38B of new memory fabs; Seagate falls 7%
Memory and storage names sold off after SK hynix approved a $38B fab program, with investors reading the spend as the first credible path back to oversupply. New front-end capacity takes 7-9 quarters to produce bits, so the risk lands in 2027-28, not this quarter.

CXMT eyes a second Beijing DRAM plant as China pushes toward Micron-scale output
CXMT is reported to be planning a second Beijing DRAM fab, targeting output approaching Micron's by late 2026. Chinese commodity DDR4/DDR5 supply is the single largest downside risk to the conventional-DRAM price curve.

AI demand reshapes DRAM rankings: Samsung 39%, SK hynix 26%, Micron 25%
Samsung reclaimed the DRAM revenue crown at 39.00%, back to 2024 levels. SK hynix grew revenue 214.00% YoY yet fell from 39% to 26%. Micron sits one point behind at 25.00% - the closest since 2014. CXMT and Nanya were the fastest growers.

FAQ
- Where can I see an HBM memory price chart?
- On this page. The price explorer plots HBM3, HBM3E and HBM4 over 30 days to 12 months as a line, area, change or AI-exposure chart, indexed to 100 or in absolute dollars, and every series exports to CSV or Excel.
- Can I compare HBM against DDR5 on the same chart?
- Yes. Switch the explorer to indexed mode and add the DDR5 and GDDR6 series — indexing to 100 removes the scale gap between a multi-hundred-dollar stack and a single-digit die so the trends are directly comparable.
- How often is the HBM chart updated?
- The dataset behind the chart refreshes twice a day at 00:00 and 12:00 UTC. It was last stamped 1970-01-01; every point carries a basis flag of reported, derived or estimate.
- Can I embed or download the HBM price chart data?
- Yes. Use the export buttons for CSV or Excel with full 365-day history, the free embeddable widget, or the JSON price API for programmatic access.
- What does the HBM chart show right now?
- The quick-answer block above states the current level and 30-day and year-over-year change for the lead HBM contract, so you get the number without reading the chart.
