According to DRAMeXchange, a research division of TrendForce, the mobile DRAM price reductions have eased due to the increased number of Q3 smartphone shipments and SK Hynix's Wuxi plant fire accident. Looking at the market, the Q3 mobile DRAM revenues have jumped by an estimated 14% QoQ to US$ 3.3 billion, representing more than 30% of the entire market's DRAM revenue.
According to DRAMeXchange, a research division of TrendForce, the 1H’Nov. NAND Flash contract prices have dropped 5%-7% compared to 2H’Oct. This is mainly due to the weaker than expected demand for NAND Flash products during the traditional peak-fourth quarter as well as the manufacturers’ high inventory levels, which reduced the overall willingness to purchase new components.
