SK hynix Inc. is rated Strong Buy over Micron Technology, Inc., rated Buy, on superior HBM leadership and its position in the emerging HBF standard. SKHY holds 50% of the HBM market, double its DRAM share, and began mass-production shipments of HBM4 in the second quarter. Every memory supplier says the supply cannot respond before 2028, with SK hynix's CEO seeing a shortage through 2030, underpinning pricing and earnings.
