According to Yonhap News Agency, Samsung's dynamic random access memory (DRAM) sales fell 34.2% in the third quarter of this year from a year earlier against the backdrop of a cold market for memory chips due to the global economic downturn.
Market research agency Omdia data show that global DRAM sales in Q3 this year fell 29.8% from a year earlier to $17.548 billion. Analysts believe that the global economic recession has led to shrinking demand, combined with customer adjustments to inventory and falling prices, the semiconductor storage market has entered a full-scale winter.
Specifically, Samsung Q3 DRAM sales fell 34.2% to $7.133 billion, SK Hynix was $5.246 billion, down 25.3%, and Micron sales fell 26.3% to $4.35 billion.
