Updated Jun 01, 2026 03:02 UTC

For the week starting 2026-06-01, the market is flagged as being in a transition regime with low confidence. Spot momentum is described as up but decelerating, while neither a contract reset nor module pass-through has been observed. Available pricing shows DDR5 at 41.9, DDR4 at 37.3875, and GDDR6 at 11.633; no week-over-week changes or four-week trends are provided, which limits directional interpretation.

How spot, module and contract compare

Based on the reported spot prices, DDR5 remains priced above DDR4, with GDDR6 at a substantially lower absolute level. However, because index values, week-over-week changes, and four-week trends are not available for any of the series, the comparison is strictly level-based and does not indicate relative momentum or recent performance.
