As the global demand for DRAM continue to rise, it is expected the price of DRAM to stay firm through year 2018. Based on a report released by TrendForce, the global DRAM supply is forecasted to increase by 19.6% in 2018. Regardless of the greater supply, the numbers are still well below the growth of demand, which could rise by 22%.

The increased need of DRAM in mobile industry plays a huge role, notably the requirement for high RAM capacity on flagship Android devices. Besides, the increased focus on the Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning in recent years also contributes to the increased requirement for more memory in data centres.

As DRAM demand is relatively inelastic, given that suppliers need a certain amount of DRAM to meet performance requirements, vendors may not be able to scale back significantly on DRAM purchases even if prices rise. Unlike NAND market where buyer would usually scale the purchase according to the price, scaling back on the DRAM would mean the decrease in the effectuation of a certain system.

In the effort of keeping the 2018 prices similar to the second half of 2017, DRAM suppliers have been investing on transiting technology and optimising the process instead of expanding the capacity. Transcend Information Inc’s tier-1 supplier, Samsung, is taking the same approach in price control alongside with Micron and SK Hynix. Therefore, it’s no surprise that memory modules manufacturers are actually having issues with low stock availability of memory modules to meet the current market demand.
