Market researcher TrendForce said on Monday that it has raised its chip price forecasts and expects conventional DRAM contract prices to jump by 90% to 95% in the January to March period of this year, from the final three months of 2025, citing the artificial intelligence boom.

It previously estimated 55% to 60% price growth for dynamic random access memory for the first quarter.

⚛️ Why is UUUU stock falling in pre-market today?

The pullback comes after a rally driven by Trump-era nuclear policy signals and rising retail enthusiasm.

Energy Fuels’ explosive rally on the back of Washington’s nuclear revival narrative has hit a speed bump.

The stock surged more than 54% in January alone, marking its best month since July, as the Trump administration starts to build out plans to fulfill the promise of a focus on domestic production of nuclear energy, but the stock tumbled nearly 8% in premarket trading on the first day of February.

Last May, US President Donald Trump issued executive orders aimed at increasing the speed of the deployment of nuclear reactors by reducing regulatory scrutiny in an attempt to advance the country’s energy goals, while also boosting oil, gas, and coal resources. StockWitse reports.
