HBM4 Race Enters New Phase: Samsung Chases, SK Hynix Defends Lead

HBM4 is a key component of AI accelerators, so share and pricing directly affect SK Hynix's profit outlook. A certification breakthrough by Samsung could intensify competition and pressure long-term pricing power, though the near-term landscape is unchanged.
