(JW Insights) May 29 -- Longsys(江波龙), a leading Chinese provider of flash and DRAM storage solutions, revealed on May 25 in its research report that although there has been a partial recovery in customer demand, the overall storage market is still in a bottoming phase, requiring close observation.
The downturn in the market is primarily attributed to the lack of momentum in end-user demand, and the recovery of the storage market relies on the revival of macroeconomic conditions and the resurgence of consumer markets. Market analysts anticipate that the storage market may stabilize in the second or third quarter of this year; That will be driven by the combined effect of reduced production by manufacturers and macroeconomic recovery. the company added.
