BlockBeats News, July 5th - In its latest report, Nomura Securities believes that the core contradiction in the current global storage industry is still a serious supply shortage, and the AI-driven structural demand growth has not peaked yet. Recently, investors' concerns about oversupply have been significantly overblown, and the market's overly reactive response may provide a window for the storage sector to reevaluate its valuation.

In the report, Nomura Securities bluntly stated that market concerns have been greatly exaggerated. The semiconductor investment-to-actual capacity conversion cycle is extremely long, with South Korea's investment plan of up to 48 trillion Korean won taking at least 5 to 10 years to translate into actual capacity. Furthermore, the high-profit HBM (High Bandwidth Memory) is squeezing general storage capacity, leading to a severe supply shortage in the market.

Nomura Securities emphasized that Meta's decision is by no means a turning point for the reduction of AI-related hardware demand. Instead, due to the current shortage of computing power, resulting in a rising trend in single Token prices, Meta's computing power entry into the market is expected to help stabilize Token prices downward.
