According to Euronews, Samsung Electronics has forecast its third consecutive record-breaking quarter, driven largely by a surge in demand for AI-related memory chips. Despite this nineteen-fold leap in quarterly profit, investors have responded by wiping more than 100 billion dollars—equivalent to approximately 87.5 billion euros—off the firm's total market value.
The sharp decline in market capitalisation reflects growing uncertainty among investors regarding the long-term sustainability of the current AI-driven memory chip boom. The company’s recent performance highlights a disconnect between record-breaking financial results and market expectations for the future of the technology sector.
