Episode Description:
Samsung just took the DRAM market share crown from SK Hynix, and the won is caught between falling oil and foreign selling.
Samsung's DRAM revenue share climbed to 39% on strong commodity-chip pricing, overtaking SK Hynix, which slipped to 26% as HBM pricing lagged. The won closed at 1,432.5 after foreign investors sold $260 million in KOSPI shares. Meanwhile, nine global hyperscalers are set to lift AI data center capex roughly 90% this year, with Microsoft's earnings beating estimates while Meta and Alphabet's free cash flow slid.
