Memory chip prices may peak sooner as AI-driven rally faces demand risks

June 8, 2026 /SemiMedia/ — Wall Street analysts are divided over how long the AI-driven memory chip rally can last, as some investors begin to question whether DRAM and NAND prices could peak sooner than expected. Most analysts still expect strong AI demand to keep memory supply tight until around mid-2027, even as suppliers add capacity. However, Raymond James analyst Kal Ackerman has issued a more cautious view, warning that average selling prices for DRAM and NAND could peak by mid-2026 and begin declining in consecutive quarters as early as next year....

SK Group reconsiders SK Siltron sale as AI chip supply chain value rises

June 5, 2026 /SemiMedia/ — SK Group is reportedly reassessing the planned sale of SK Siltron as the AI-driven semiconductor upcycle increases the strategic value of silicon wafer supply within the group’s chip business. The group selected Doosan Semiconductor as the preferred bidder for SK Siltron at the end of 2025 and had continued negotiations for the sale. However, industry observers said the process has slowed as SK considers whether selling the wafer maker still fits its long-term semiconductor strategy....
