"Its it weird that Svgi did well today and others got hurt? "

$100,000,000.00 dollars in a single order will have that effect.

Regars, Jerome

[World DRAM Price] DRAM Price Returns to Normal, 64MB DIMM Price Rises
December 15, 1999 (TOKYO) -- The spot price for DRAMs kept its downward trend, but the 30-day rolling average price as of Nov. 26, 1999 began an upward trend.




The spot price for memory modules also rose. The world DRAM market, which was significantly influenced by the September earthquake in Taiwan this year, has seemingly returned to normal in the season when there is the strongest demand.

The worldwide DRAM price survey conducted by ICIS-LOR, based in London, Houston and Singapore, showed that the 30-day rolling average of 64Mb DRAM (PC100, 8M x 8) prices for large users between Oct. 28 and Nov. 26, 1999 was US$11.06 in North America, US$11.31 in Europe and US$10.57 in Asia. Compared with the 30-day rolling average price up to Nov. 19, it increased by 2.27 percent in North America, by 1.06 percent in Europe and by 2.30 percent in Asia.

As for prices of memory modules, the spot price for 64MB dual inline memory modules (DIMMs, PC100) rose by 1.29 percent from the previous week to US$82.00 in North America, and also rose by 1.37 percent to US$86.02 in Europe and rose by 0.29 percent to US$81.00 in Asia.

The spot price for 64MB DIMMs in the 30-day rolling average price has reverted to a rising trend. This is because demand for them has increased as the year-end sales battle nears. However, the supply shortage of CPUs and other parts is restraining PC shipments, and memory prices will not fluctuate before the new year. It is feared that the memory price will fall after the new year.
