Abstract
The total memory market has witnessed a record 32 percent decline in Q4 2008,
while Q1 2009 saw another 11 percent drop which has caused considerable alarm
in the technology industry. However, due to slowly improved conditions,
Databeans predicts that the next several quarters will bring a return to
growth in the memory market.
Databeans predicts that Q2 2009 will mark the beginning of renewed profits
with an increase of 6 percent up to $8 billion from $7.6 billion in Q1 2009.
This trend will continue over the following five quarters, growing to $12.5
billion by the third quarter of 2010. This is predicted to occur thanks to an
improvement in consumer spending, especially in the computer segment as buyers
begin to replace older PC models with those containing the new Microsoft
Windows 7 operating system.
