On August 17, Roundhill Memory ETF rose 5.27% in regular trading, trading at $60.16/share, with turnover of $539 million.
The rally was driven by multiple catalysts supporting the global memory chip sector. Counterpoint Research data showed that Yangtze Memory Technologies (YMTC) reached 14% shipment share in NAND flash, becoming the world's third-largest supplier for the first time, fueled by surging enterprise SSD demand from AI inference workloads. Meanwhile, U.S. July CPI rose 3.4% year-over-year, below the prior reading of 3.5%, easing rate hike pressure. The Philadelphia Semiconductor Index previously gained 2.49%, with Micron Technology rising nearly 5%. NewStreet Research significantly raised its Micron target price to $1,250, and ongoing memory price increases further supported sector sentiment.
