Key points:
- Korea customs data effectively closes the quarter before earnings; reports were expected on July 29.
- Memory exports hit a record June, up 57% quarter over quarter.
- Despite that, memory stocks sold off in July on fears of an industry demand break.
- The author’s view is that the next earnings print will depend more on pricing than on demand.
