    They won’t sell it to you

    China is a major consumer of RAM. If they can supply it domestically, that has the potential to reduce the volume of global imports and subsequent price pressure.

    If their competitors can’t keep up, you will eventually see Chinese RAM get out onto the secondary market in the same way Chinese EVs and Chinese cell phones and Chinese solar panels and Chinese steel have depressed global prices for these commodities.

      If their competitors can’t keep up

      Their competitors have already sold out their entire 2027 production.

      The money they make selling RAM to private consumers is not even 1 promille of their revenue.
