Two South Korean companies, SK Hynix and Samsung, control 83% of the global memory chip market and are competing to deepen ties with U.S. AI firms.
Samsung has more than doubled its market share over the past year, while SK Hynix has held a long lead in high-bandwidth memory and is building a $4 billion advanced packaging facility in Indiana.
Both remain exposed to China, where they face new U.S. licensing requirements and growing domestic competition.
