SK Hynix is trading 4.73% down at KRW 1,613,000 after memory-chip sentiment weakened across the sector.
- Investors are weighing potential disruption from a possible Micron Taiwan strike and rising competition from China’s CXMT, which has reportedly advanced toward limited HBM3E production.
- The Micron labor dispute remains unresolved, while unions have reportedly gained substantial strike support and plan negotiations through mid-September.
- These industry-wide concerns—not a new SK Hynix-specific announcement—best explain the decline.
