According to TrendForce’s latest memory spot price trend report, DRAM spot prices this week have seen upward momentum in low-density DDR4 and DDR3 segments, while the broader market continues to trend sideways. In NAND Flash, suppliers are adjusting quotations to optimize inventory levels, but buyers remain reluctant to accept current pricing, with 512Gb TLC wafer spot prices continuing to decline.

DRAM Spot Price:

Upward price momentum in the DRAM spot market this week has been concentrated on low-density DDR4 and DDR3 chips, while the broader market continues to trend sideways. Although sporadic inquiries for other chips exist, overall trading volume is still rather low because quotes are holding at high levels, and buyers are reluctant to chase higher prices. The average spot price of mainstream chips (i.e., DDR4 1Gx8 3200MT/s) has risen by 0.28% from US$35.900 last week (June 24) to US$36.00 this week (June 30).

NAND Flash Spot Price:

Spots remain partially sluggish, where dynamics of demand are visibly withering and continue to hit rock bottom. The supply end has alleviated quotations to adjust inventory, though buyers are exceedingly on stocking activities as they are obviously hesitant towards accepting the existing level of cost, having reached the limit of tolerance. Overall prices are fully deprived of momentum of increment as the market lacks substantial buy orders, and remain on the weaker end. 512Gb TLC wafer spots dropped by 1.03% this week (June 29), arriving at US$19.862.
