DRAM Spot Price:

The overall trend in the spot market remains the same. The main focus for 3Q25 has been the rebound in contract prices, but trading momentum has gradually slowed down recently, with prices of DDR5 and DDR4 products experiencing slight declines. Despite tepid demand, prices have not yet fallen significantly. TrendForce anticipates that over the next few weeks, DDR4 products will maintain relatively strong price momentum in the spot market, while DDR5 products will continue to show small price dips. The average spot price of the mainstream chips (i.e., DDR4 1Gx8 3200MT/s) slightly decreased by 0.26% from US$4.907 last week to US$4.894 this week.

NAND Flash Spot Price:

Spot market saw confined changes, where demand continues to remain on the weaker end, and market participants are carrying on with their wait-and-see attitude, with only sporadic inquiries focusing on the low-priced intervals of certain components. Spot prices of 512Gb TLC wafers dropped by 0.36% this week, arriving at US$2.798.
