February 10th - Shares of memory chip manufacturers have surged to unprecedented heights in recent months. Fund managers and analysts are currently assessing which companies can best weather this supply squeeze by locking in supply, raising product prices, or redesigning products to reduce memory usage. Vivian Pai, a fund manager at Fidelity International, stated, "We believe the industry supply tightness is likely to persist, potentially for the remainder of the year." Jian Shi Cortesi, a fund manager at Zurich-based GAM Investment Management, said, "Historically, memory cycles typically last three to four years. The current cycle is longer and larger than previous cycles, and we havent seen any signs of weakening demand momentum."February 10th - According to the Financial Times, President Trump intends to exempt companies like Amazon, Google, and Microsoft from impending tariffs on chips as they race to build data centers that power the artificial intelligence boom.

This exemption plan underscores President Trumps determination to impose tariffs on chips and incentivize domestic chip manufacturing, while also providing some assistance to companies heavily reliant on imported semiconductors and driving the rapid development of U.S. artificial intelligence.
