The listing of CXMT, the country’s top maker of DRAM chips, sparked investor momentum as its shares surged 466 per cent to close at 49 yuan.
It has become the most valuable company listed on the mainland Chinese market. Its market cap of 3.28 trillion yuan (US$484.6 billion) is larger than US chip giant Intel, valued at about US$464 billion.
Nomura on Monday estimated its share of the global DRAM market could rise from about 10 per cent now to about 18 per cent by the end of 2028.
That growth would be supported by monthly capacity expanding from 280,000 12-inch wafers in Hefei and Beijing at the end of 2025 to 350,000 by the end of 2026 and 550,000 by the end of 2028, with new lines added in Shanghai, it added.
