Industry Analysis
As AI advances, memory chips have become the critical bottleneck, especially HBM and DRAM, reshaping the global semiconductor supply chain. SK Hynix, with dominant positions in HBM, DRAM, and NAND, is well-positioned in the AI compute stack. Unlike Micron and SanDisk, it lacks systemic tech depth but benefits from strong market share and financial momentum. Geopolitical tensions, particularly in 3nm and EUV reliance between Taiwan, China and South Korea, are increasing supply chain risks. If NVIDIA continues expanding capex, SK Hynix stands to gain from long-term contracts and capacity expansion. In the next 12–24 months, sustained AI demand could unlock significant upside, with its low P/E and strong cash flow making it a more attractive value play.
