The price hikes suggest an industry situation far tighter than thought, as market researcher TrendForce had only forecast a 33%-38% increase for the quarter. The shortage was caused by strong demand for eSSDs used in AI data centers, rising storage specs in consumer devices, and conservative capacity expansion among chip makers over the past few years. $Sandisk(SNDK.US) $Micron Tech(MU.US) $SSNLF $HXSCL #Samsung #SKhynix #semiconductors Source: Dan Nystedt ### Related Stocks - [SNDK.US - Sandisk](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/SNDK.US.md) - [SSNGY.US - Samsung Electronics ](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/SSNGY.US.md) - [07709.HK - XL2CSOPHYNIX](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/07709.HK.md) - [MU.US - Micron Tech](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/MU.US.md) --- > **Disclaimer**: This article is for reference only and does not constitute any investment advice.
