According to TrendForce’s latest release on memory spot prices, with no signs of loosening in contract market prices for DRAM and NAND Flash, spot prices are expected to remain relatively stable in the short term. Details are as follows:

DRAM Spot Market:
In the spot market, buyers and sellers are still mostly passive at this moment due to the celebration of the Lunar New Year. Therefore, spot prices of chips and modules have held relatively steady since before the holiday break. Currently, contract prices are showing no signs of weakening, so TrendForce expects spot prices of some DRAM products to stay mostly flat in the short term. The average spot price of mainstream chips (i.e., DDR4 1Gx8 2666MT/s) rose by 0.98% from US$1.939 last week to US$1.958 this week.

NAND Flash Spot Market:
Most spot traders are still celebrating Chinese New Year, and have yet to see any significant price changes, where both wafer and SSD prices are mostly at the level prior to the holiday. With no signs of easing in contract prices, partial spot prices are also expected to be relatively sturdy in the short term. The 512Gb TLC wafer spot stayed flat this week at US$3.437.
