I'm sure we're all aware of the memory price increases due to the AI hype, but it's helpful to see the trends over time. Heck, maybe these graphs could be a good indicator to watch for if/when the bubble pops.

Fair point. I can see how a bubble burst might not recover those discarded wafers, assuming that story is true. However, I'd still imagine that if the bubble did burst, there would naturally be a reduction in demand for memory, and that would cool prices at least a bit. Certainly time will tell. It's still difficult to predict the direction this is all going in.
