Semiconductor market 2017 spiked by DDR DRAM and flash memory chips

Semiconductor memory chips again take the control of semiconductor market in 2017, the overall semiconductor market started growing in the 1st quarter of 2017 itself due to the growth of DDR4/3 DRAM and NAND flash memory chip sales. Smartphone buyers are preferring smart phones with higher DRAM, so that it runs faster with multiple apps running in the backgroud. Without any doubt, one of the attribute for the growth of semiconductor market is the offering of free data and voice calls by Indian telecom service provider JIO, where it insists people should have 4G phones for the SIM to operate. So more people in India started buying 4G smart phones to avail the free data and voice calls benefits. The cost of the phone not really mattered compared to the money they can save by having free data and voice calls. A smart buyer would prefer to buy a 4G smart phone phone with higher DDR DRAM memory in their smart phones. Not only during this season, even during PC market boom, the DRAM and SRAM market growth has given a big boost of growth to the semiconductor market in early and late 90s. But it was dangerously risky business for memory makers who have seen sudden rise and fall of sales revenues. Is this market growth a just blip, or does it last longer ? Our analysis tells the blip not going to be that sharp, though the growth rates may fall to some extent, but the mark...
