This means prices are not just nearly doubling this quartermemory prices could effectively double again in Q2. This implies that by the end of June memory prices could reach nearly 4x the levels seen at the end of last year. $MU https://twitter.com/i/web/status/2021483195884241177 https://twitter.com/i/web/status/2021483195884241177"
