Briefing.com 5/17/06 08:35 Samsung Elec expects strong memory chip demand - Reuters Reuters reports Samsung Electronics expects stronger demand for computer memory chips in the second half of this year and sees NAND flash chip prices strengthening. Samsung, the number-two maker of large liquid crystal display (L.C.D.) panels worldwide, also expects increased demand and better pricing for L.C.D. panels for notebooks and personal computers in the second half, Chu Woosik, Samsung's senior vice president for investor relations, told Reuters on Wednesday. Samsung raised prices of NAND-type flash memory chips, used in digital cameras and music players, by a "mid-single-digit" percent earlier this month. Chu declined to predict the next NAND price move but said he expected NAND flash prices to strengthen.
