While AI boom is supported by strong cash flows, it is not immune to shocks, with chip shortage posing a major risk to the rally, says Nuvama.
The ongoing memory chip crisis is forcing companies to scramble with new ideas to procure their desired RAM quantities, and Apple is apparently considering a risky move. According to a new Bloomberg News report, Cupertino is currently in talks with two Chinese companies, ChangXin Memory Technologies
At the SAFE Forum (Samsung Advanced Foundry Ecosystem), Samsung revealed its plans for future semiconductor nodes. Last year, the company unveiled the Exynos 2600, the first 2nm smartphone chip – this one was made on the SF2 node as Samsung calls it. Next up is SF2P, which will reduce power consumpt
German semiconductor giant Infineon opened a five-billion-euro ($5.7 billion) microchip plant Thursday, as Europe seeks to bolster its high-tech autonomy. "We all want to further strengthen Europe's position as a semiconductor hub," Infineon CEO Jochen Hanebeck said at the opening ceremony.
South Korean stocks plunged nearly eight percent at close Thursday as tech giants Samsung and SK hynix tumbled on fears of slowing AI chip demand. The slide on the Kospi market was triggered by a tech-led rout just days after the companies announced a massive investment in a chip-building hub and AI
The projects in the country's central city of Cheongju outlined on Thursday come under a $2.1 trillion plan unveiled by the chipmaker and its local rival Samsung Electronics on Monday that also included a new chip cluster in the southwest and existing projects.
Oxmiq Labs will use this funding to scale OxCore, Oxmiq Labs' licensable GPU architecture platform that enables semiconductor companies and AI system builders to develop custom AI silicon without undertaking a full chip design programme.
