[World DRAM Price] After-Quake Price Hikes Level Off in Spot Market November 3, 1999 (TOKYO) -- The DRAM price hike that originated after the Sept. 21 earthquake in Taiwan is showing signs of tempering. According to ICIS-LOR's DRAM price survey, the 30-day rolling average price of 64Mb DRAMs (PC100, 8M x 8) for large users (Sept. 16-Oct. 15) was up 3.61 percent to US$8.94 in North America, up 10.75 percent to US$8.90 in Europe and up 7.04 percent to US$8.64 in Asia, compared with the figures calculated for the 30 days up to Oct. 8. The company has its business bases in London, Houston and Singapore. As for memory modules, the spot price of 64MB dual inline memory modules (DIMMs, PC100) was up 0.82 percent to US$122.55 in North America, up 0.79 percent to US$130.52 in Europe and up 2.65 percent to US$124.91 in Asia. In terms of the 30-day rolling average price, every region has seen an increase. But day-to-day comparisons show that the spot price fell to the pre-quake level as opposed to the contract price, which has kept rising. The spot price of the DIMMs (PC100), which had soared in the aftermath of the quake, began to decline as well, and fell below the pre-quake level on Oct. 15. The 30-day rolling average prices synchronized this downward trend. nikkeibp.asiabiztech.com
