TechFlow reports, on July 10, SK Group Chairman Chey Tae-won stated that SK Hynix is open to issuing additional US stocks if return performance is strong and the company's stock price remains stable. "This actually requires better returns," he said. "Once we have better returns, demand will naturally increase. Our primary task is to maintain stock price stability and hope to have upside potential in the long term."
Chey Tae-won also promised to increase the company's investment efforts in the United States. Chey Tae-won stated, "Now is the AI era; the arrival of the AI era has actually greatly driven up demand for memory chips." Currently, the three top memory chip manufacturers are accelerating investments to expand capacity, competing to meet surging market demand. SK Hynix and Samsung announced last week that they will invest a total of 800 trillion won to build new chip manufacturing plants; this move is part of a grand plan in South Korea, aiming to double the country's memory chip capacity within five years.
