原厂停产风波下，近1个月价格几乎翻倍！

Core Viewpoint - The price of DDR4 memory has surged nearly 100% in the past month due to supply constraints caused by manufacturers announcing production halts, leading to market speculation and stockpiling [1][3][13]. Price Surge - DDR4 prices have increased significantly, with the average price for DDR4 16G 3200 rising from $3.97 in early April to over $6 by the end of May, marking an increase of over 200% in less than a quarter [3][6]. - In the Shenzhen market, DDR4 16G products are now priced above 250 RMB, with some nearing 300 RMB, while DDR4 32G products exceed 500 RMB [7][11]. - The rapid price increase was particularly noted in late June, where some products saw a price jump of around 70 RMB within a few days [7][8]. Market Dynamics - After the initial surge, DDR4 prices have stabilized at a high level, with no significant signs of decline, despite some fluctuations [8][11]. - Retailers suggest that consumers wait if their demand is not urgent, as the future price trajectory remains uncertain [8]. Supply Constraints - The primary driver of the price increase is the confirmed production halts by major manufacturers like Micron, Samsung, and SK Hynix, which are transitioning to new production processes [13]. - The expected reduction in DDR4 supply is anticipated to create a persistent shortage, particularly affecting LPDDR4X used in mobile devices, with a forecasted supply gap of 15% to 20% [14]. Opportunities for Domestic Manufacturers - The reduction in DDR4 production by overseas manufacturers presents an opportunity for domestic DRAM manufacturers to increase their market share [15]. - Companies like Jiangbolong are adapting their strategies in response to the price increases and are focusing on enhancing their production capabilities [15]. Transition to DDR5 - As DDR4 prices rise, there is an expected acceleration in demand for DDR5 memory, driven by the AI industry's needs [13][15]. - Companies involved in DDR5 memory interface chips are seeing increased orders, indicating a shift in market focus towards next-generation memory solutions [15].
