The earliest instance this archive holds
This is a fact about this record rather than about the claim. Collection began on 2026-08-13 and each feed was backfilled with whatever it happened to carry, so an earlier instance may exist and be absent here.

Nobody here has opened this link. The link returned HTTP 403 to this record on 25 August 2026, so nobody here has read what it cites. The field stays empty and says why rather than carrying a guess.
Earliest instance THIS ARCHIVE HOLDS, which is not the same as the earliest instance that exists. Collection began on 13 August 2026 and each feed was backfilled with whatever it happened to carry, so anything published before that date is in here only by accident. The claim appears in this row as a subordinate clause in a headline about a processor.
What the named parties published
1 dated statement on the same subject, in the words each party used. Their placement after the rows above follows the dates and carries no other meaning.

“In H2 2026, the Memory Business expects robust demand centered on servers stemming from continued AI infrastructure capex and broader adoption of agentic AI. Meanwhile, growth in demand for server DRAM, eSSDs, and HBM is expected to accelerate. This is projected to keep the market undersupplied, despite partial demand moderation in mobile and PCs.”
The same release says, of the second quarter itself, that the Memory Business achieved a record quarter by addressing AI demand despite limited capacity, and that despite efforts to increase production, supply constraints are expected to continue.
