SK Hynix Debuts on Nasdaq as $1 Trillion AI Memory Boom Reshapes the Chip Market
SK Hynix is set to begin trading on Nasdaq as the AI memory boom propels its market cap toward $1 trillion. The company plans to raise about $29 billion via ADRs to fund U.S. expansion, including a $4 billion Indiana facility for advanced packaging and potential CHIPS Act support, while continuing to expand memory production (HBM, RAM, NAND) in Korea. Nvidia is a major customer in the high-bandwidth memory space, and SK Hynix aims to lock in long-term demand through contracts amid a volatile memory cycle. Analysts foresee revenue growth into 2026, but investors weigh the sector’s cyclical risks against AI-driven demand.
