YMTC Emerges as New NAND Threat to Micron in Global Market
TL;DR
Counterpoint Research shows Micron lagging in NAND shipments behind Samsung (25%) and SK Hynix (22%), with YMTC (14%) narrowly ahead of Micron in shipments but still behind in revenue due to its lower-priced mix. The Chinese memory maker plans to shift toward eSSDs to cement a higher global ranking, while AI-driven NAND demand remains a key factor. Barron’s notes Micron’s stock slipped in premarket trading after a prior rally as investors weigh these competitive dynamics and China’s YMTC as a growing threat.
