South Korean chipmakers SK hynix and Samsung are moving ahead with 16-layer HBM4 high-bandwidth memory technology, according to The Korea Herald. Nvidia's upcoming Vera Rubin AI platform is expected to depend largely on 12-layer HBM chips, meaning the more advanced 16-layer memory may arrive in later products. The development highlights intensifying competition in memory supply for AI accelerators, with Korean manufacturers racing to secure their position in Nvidia's next-generation chip ecosystem.
- 3Micron bulls say bears ignore HBM demand reality●Micron: Bears Are Fighting Physics With Spreadsheets (NASDAQ:MU)
A new analysis of Micron Technology argues that short sellers betting against the memory chipmaker are relying on financial modeling while ignoring physical constraints on industry supply. The piece contends that memory manufacturing capacity and demand for high-bandwidth memory used in AI data centers are constrained by real-world production limits, which spreadsheets cannot easily capture. The debate comes as Micron's stock remains a focal point of disagreement between bullish and bearish investors.
