iPhone 18 Orders Cut 15%, Fallout Spreads to Samsung and SK Hynix

Apple reportedly cut iPhone 18 orders by about 15%, fueling fears of an 'AI paradox' in which memory price hikes driven by AI demand dampen end-device consumption, potentially weakening mobile memory demand for suppliers like Samsung and SK Hynix. The news pressures memory stocks near term, though a sustained AI server boom could limit the actual earnings hit.
