China chipmakers close tech gap; Korea races to protect lead

The South China Morning Post reported that Chinese chipmakers are rapidly closing the technology gap in memory, prompting the Korean government and companies like Samsung and SK Hynix to step up efforts to maintain their lead. The news highlights a medium- to long-term risk of intensifying Chinese competition for SK Hynix, but the near-term stock impact is likely limited as investors focus on current HBM demand and shareholder returns.
