Samsung Strike Could Deepen DRAM Crunch And Cost $20 Billion As An 18-Day Walkout Risks Becoming a 36-Day Production Blackout

Samsung’s unionized workers are threatening an 18-day strike over bonus demands.

Analysts warn a shutdown of memory fabs and foundry lines could take up to 36 days to fully recover.

The disruption could tighten global DRAM supply and hurt enterprise SSD and server memory markets.

Samsung could face losses of up to $20 billion if the production blackout drags on.
