China’s Anti-Monopoly Bureau of Ministry of Commerce has talked to Micron about limiting supplies of DRAM to keep prices up, reports DRAMeXchange.

Samsung, Hynix and Micron held 96% DRAM market share in 1Q18 with individual market shares of, respectively, 44.9%, 27.9%, and 22.6%.

China anti-trust laws provide for investigations of situation aimed at “limiting the amount of products for sale”.

China is the largest importer of memories accounting for 20% of world DRAM output and 25% of NAND output, says DRAMeXchange,

Earlier this year, China’s National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) talked with Samsung about DRAM pricing issues.
