  • Chipmaker Shares Soar Amid AI Boom in H1 2026
    June 28, 2026, 11:16 PM EDT. Semiconductor and memory chip stocks surged sharply in the first half of 2026, driven by strong AI demand. South Korea's Kospi index rose 125%, led by Samsung's 183% and SK Hynix's 310% gains. U.S. chipmakers like Sandisk soared 780% this year, with some stocks climbing thousands of percent over 12 months. Rising chip prices boosted profits amid constrained supply, fueling the rally. Conversely, major software companies including Microsoft declined as investors favored hardware over software. Apple cited higher memory chip costs for price hikes on devices. Recent profit-taking suggests some cooling in the chip rally. Overall, strong gains persisted in Asia-Pacific markets and reflected broader investor appetite for AI-driven tech hardware.
