Samsung and SK Hynix will benefit from the US ban on China’s legacy chips.
December 27, 2023
The US government is planning to tighten regulations on Chinese legacy chips, which is expected to result in banning American defense companies from importing semiconductors from China.
This move is seen as a preemptive attempt to prevent Chinese firms’ low-priced products from dominating the U.S. semiconductor market.
Analysts expect the U.S. restriction to have negative impacts on the exports of Chinese chipmakers only, while helping Samsung and SK sell their stocks of legacy DRAMs and NAND flash chips.
