Samsung, SK hynix sell-off excessive as memory outlook stays strong: analysts

This sell-off is considered excessive, as it is not driven by deteriorating earnings but rather by market conditions. Analysts believe the memory outlook remains strong, fueled by rising earnings forecasts and increasing demand for artificial intelligence.
