Not only is server DRAM demand expected to continue growing from 2026 to 2030 (28.5% CAGR), but it is also expected to dwarf the highly cyclical consumer market, which is a bullish development for memory players overall.
AI data center/cloud demand is less cyclical and also has a lower price elasticity of demand. Less exposure to the cyclical consumer market may lead to less volatile earnings and justify higher valuation multiples of memory stocks.
