Jefferies: Samsung Strike Could Impact Approximately 3% of Global Memory Chip Production

According to estimates by Jefferies, the ongoing Samsung strike could impact approximately 3% of global memory chip production. Memory chip supply is already facing historically tight conditions. Any reduction in Samsung's output would increase demand for Micron's hardware, which has already surged significantly due to the boom in AI infrastructure construction. Samsung's difficulties could also benefit SanDisk, as the company competes with Samsung in the NAND flash memory chip market. Micron's stock rose sharply on Wednesday, with its market capitalization surpassing the $900 billion mark for the first time. (Jin Shi)
