postheadericon DRAM Production Cuts Continue, Time to Stock Up on Memory?

We've reported on this before, but up until this point, DRAM makers have mostly been talking the talk and only a few of them have walked the walk. Now several are falling in line with production cuts. According to DigiTimes, a news and rumor site with its finger on pulse of the DRAM situation, Nanya Technology and Inotera Memories have joined Elpida Memory, Powerchip Technology, and Rexchip Electronics in scaling back production until prices rebound.

Ten and 20 percent might not seem so significant, but collectively, this could affect the market. Don't expect prices to skyrocket, though. According to DigiTimes, Samsung and Hynix plan to forge ahead full steam, and between the two, they account for over 60 percent of the global DRAM market.
