SK Hynix IPO Tests Wall Street’s AI Chip Appetite

SK Hynix is making its Wall Street debut as investors continue pouring money into companies tied to AI data centers, memory chips, and the broader semiconductor boom.

Paul Lane and Marc Fandetti break down why SK Hynix is raising billions through its U.S. listing, how memory chipmakers are trying to capitalize on demand from AI infrastructure spending, and why new supply can eventually sow the seeds of a future downturn. They also discuss grocery chains cutting prices as consumers pull back, why inflation remains difficult for the Federal Reserve to measure, how rising real yields are affecting housing and the stock market, why the spring home-selling season ended on a weak note, and why the oil market remains vulnerable if the Iran conflict drags on.
