AI memory: pricing discipline through the supply ramp

AI memory demand and disciplined capacity additions will sustain DRAM/HBM and NAND supplier pricing and economics through the next two reporting cycles; track each product separately.

Watch for: Samsung NSEU strike actually starting 2026-05-21 + post-2026-06-07 mediation (fast settlement kills the strike angle, not the thesis), memory-vs-foundry line split during the strike (April test: memory -18% / foundry -58%), MU outperformance vs Samsung 005930.KS during the strike window (the competitor-pricing mechanism test — absent so far), spot DRAM/NAND price reaction after 2026-05-21, whether the cohort's 7-day pullback resolves up or breaks trend, MU / SK Hynix quarterly prints (citation of record for the contract-price thesis)
