Samsung Electronics shares surged in Seoul trading today following reports that the company will start mass production of next-generation HBM4 memory chips in February at its Pyeongtaek campus in South Korea. SK Hynix, another company planning to manufacture these advanced memory chips, also experienced a 1.9% increase in its stock price. The Seoul Economic Daily reported that SK Hynix is set to begin HBM4 production at its M16 fab facility next month.
