    They cut supply in like September. They were all fighting for market share still, largely driven by Samsung, hence the low prices.

    Server shipments were way down because everyone overbought in 2021/2022.

    The NAND market has always been an antitrust shit show.

      Yup. They control the entire market and there’s a decreasing number of fabs. They raise prices to ensure revenue doesn’t drop and they can keep showing investors lines going up.

      It’s idiotic, and it’s how the industry has worked for decades at this point. Just wait till people figure out the games played by fabs, substrate manufacturers, and component suppliers…
