  • Google's AI Algorithm Research Triggers Memory Chip Selloff Amid Analyst Reassurance
    March 27, 2026, 11:21 AM EDT. Memory chip stocks fell sharply after Google's announcement of its TurboQuant algorithm, which cuts the memory needed for training large language AI models by sixfold, potentially easing current supply shortages and lowering chip prices. Shares of South Korea's Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix dropped over 6%, while U.S. chip makers Micron, Western Digital and Sandisk slid more than 7%. Despite the selloff, analysts including Morgan Stanley and JPMorgan Chase view the innovation as a positive long-term factor, citing the Jevons Paradox: improvements in efficiency can increase overall demand. Hyperscalers like Amazon and Google continue to invest heavily in AI infrastructure, with $650 billion planned for data centers this year, supporting sustained memory chip demand.
