The semiconductor sector is experiencing a sharp selloff, driven by worries about China's gradual progress in domestic DUV lithography technology. Despite plans to deploy a limited number of machines by 2026 and 2027, this is not expected to significantly impact DRAM supply or pricing soon. The DRAM market remains protected until China develops EUV capabilities, though NAND memory faces more immediate competition risks from Chinese firms like YMTC. The analyst remains optimistic about SK hynix and Micron, expecting supply constraints and strong margins to continue through 2027-2028.
