May 28, 2008
Samsung Electronics has announced plans to invest KRW 946.8bn ($902.2m) to upgrade its memory lines this year.
It said it expects its chip division to turn a corner by the second half after a year-long decline, and expects DRAM shipments to rise 100%, against the industry average of 50%-60%.
Market research company iSuppli estimates that Samsung has a 30.6% share of the global chip market.
