Taipei, July 22nd, 2009 --- According to DRAMeXchange, resulting from the 5% upward pricing in term 1H’July, DDR3 contract price for 2H’July hikes again due to tight DDR3 supply and aggressiveness in inventory replenishment for PC-OEMs.
Taipei,July 24th 2009------2H’July mainstream MLC NAND Flash contract price slightly declined around 4% since customer base and demand varied during the period and resulted in the mild downward pricing trend. Says DRAMeXchange.
Taipei,July 13th 2009-----End-customer’s purchase willingness in early July is cautious since July is traditionally regarded as the slow season for NAND Flash main products such as memory card and UFD. Inventory level for some card makers is still above one month. NAND Flash vendors slightly lower mainstream MLC NAND Flash contract price to enhance the purchase volume.
Taipei,July 1st 2009----- The June contract price did not fluctuate since some contract deals between PC OEMs and DRAM vendors are conducted either in monthly basis or quarterly basis. DRAMeXchange believes that DDR3 contract price in July will increase 5%~10% due to the aggressive CULV promotion and new contract deal negotiation in July.
