Citing a number of reports, market research institute TrendForce has indicated that DRAM contract prices are projected to climb by roughly 20% on a quarter-over-quarter basis in the fourth quarter of 2026. While this growth rate represents a deceleration from the second quarter (which saw around an 80% increase) and the third quarter (with approximately a 40% rise), the DRAM market as a whole continues to maintain elevated price levels, driven by a constrained supply and robust demand.
