Sources say Samsung Electro-Mechanics will raise prices of some MLCCs by 30% starting in August, and Taiyo Yuden will follow suit with price hikes.

1 hours ago

Citrini analyst Jukan cited sources saying Samsung Electro-Mechanics has notified customers that it will raise prices on some multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) products by 30% starting August 1, 2026. The company attributed the move to intensifying supply chain pressures driven by growing global demand for electronics, noting that despite improving production efficiency and expanding capacity, it was forced to adjust prices on certain products to ensure quality and stable supply. The price hike applies to all MLCC products under Samsung Electro-Mechanics’ Markup Business Code, with the new pricing taking effect for products shipped on or after August 1. Separately, Japanese MLCC maker Taiyo Yuden also plans to raise its MLCC product prices starting September 1, stating that due to sustained rising raw material costs and tight supply-demand conditions, it may still fail to fully meet customer demand even after the increase, with delivery timelines for some orders also not guaranteed.

South Korea's stock market has triggered circuit breakers for two consecutive days, bringing the total number of such halts to nine so far this year.

The Korea Composite Stock Price Index (KOSPI) saw its intraday decline exceed 8% at one point today, triggering the market’s circuit breaker mechanism, falling below the 5,600-point threshold to hit a recent low. This marks the ninth time South Korea’s stock market has triggered the circuit breaker this year, and the second consecutive trading day it has done so. Earlier market views had argued that South Korea’s circuit breaker mechanism was no longer effective, failing to effectively halt sell-offs. The core drivers behind this slump are the revaluation of AI semiconductor stocks coupled with structural flaws in South Korea’s market. Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix together account for over 40% of KOSPI’s total market capitalization, meaning fluctuations in these two stocks alone can sway the broader market’s direction.

SK Hynix’s market value erased roughly one-fifth over two days, while South Korean stocks fell 18%.

South Korea’s stock market has fallen sharply for the second consecutive day. Chipmaker SK Hynix’s second-quarter earnings missed estimates, extending the sector’s slump, while retail investors have been cutting positions en masse. After closing down 10% on Tuesday, South Korea’s KOSPI index plunged another 8% on Wednesday. So far in July, the KOSPI has dropped over 30%, on track to record its worst monthly decline in history. The index rallied sharply earlier this year, with gains almost entirely driven by Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix. After closing down 14% on Tuesday, SK Hynix’s shares plummeted 12% on Wednesday, wiping out roughly one-fifth of its market value in two days. Investors are now awaiting earnings reports from Samsung Electronics and other major U.S. tech companies due on Thursday. (Jin10)
