Nomura: AI-driven memory demand grows exponentially, sharply raising target prices for Samsung and SK Hynix
Glonghui, May 18 — Nomura released a report indicating that AI-driven demand is experiencing exponential growth while memory supply remains limited, and memory stocks are expected to undergo a valuation re-rating. According to Nomura, as demand for AI semiconductors shifts from training to inference workloads, memory demand is entering a phase of exponential expansion. In contrast, the bank believes that industry supply growth during the same period may remain constrained at around 5 to 6 times (with a compound annual growth rate of approximately 30%), raising serious questions about whether the structural supply-demand imbalance can truly be resolved. Nomura notes that the industry is currently attempting to narrow this widening supply-demand gap through various software and architectural optimizations, but considers that these solutions will only slow the growth rate, rather than reverse the trend.

Masahiko Loo, Senior Fixed Income Strategist at State Street Global Advisors, said that the latest round of Japanese government bond sell-offs reflects the combined effects of global interest rate pressures and domestic fiscal concerns. He added that the supplementary budget further strengthens supply expectations.
In an inflationary environment, this is not surprising. The key lies in the yield curve—the spread between the 5-year and 30-year yields is once again approaching a historically wide level of over 210 basis points. Since 2025, when the spread reaches this level, the market typically stabilizes as valuations become attractive. He emphasized that this is not a financing issue; Japan is still mainly financed domestically, and household financial assets are about twice the size of its debt. Regarding contagion risk, the spillover effects should remain limited. The global impact is more reflected in gradual interest rate repricing rather than systemic risk, and Japan is unlikely to become a net seller of foreign assets.
