Industry uncertain over recent DRAM spot price rebound
By
With DRAM showing a long-awaited price rebound on the spot market during the week May 18-25, industry watchers are still puzzling about whether it is a sign of an industry-wide rebound or just a short-lived phenomenon.
An upward price trend for 512Mbit DDR2 at the spot market was observed starting from May 18 for all frequencies including effectively tested (eTT) chips, according to figures posted by DRAMeXchange. Among all specification chips, eTT chips enjoyed the largest sequential growth over the week, appreciating almost 16%. Some industry players doubt the sustainability of this price rebound given that DRAM contract prices remained weak in the last update.
