I recall how in the 2010s RAM manufacturers were in crisis, as their margins were low and competition fierce - it got to a point where they started doing price fixing and got fined for it: https://web.archive.org/web/20180513133803/https://www.techrepublic.com/article/samsung-hynix-micron-sued-for-dram-price-fixing-that-could-have-raised-pc-prices/ https://web.archive.org/web/20180513133803/https://www.techr... Prices went down again after that. To me this is just a temporary swing in the other direction - they're riding the gravy train while they can, because once it ends it's back to low prices.
