I think the usefulness of market dynamics is their ability to follow things like factory capacity, which are themselves hard to follow, not the other way around.

For things that aren't inherently limited in production
it is supposed to work both ways..
A key element is that China still acts as a block.. So Chinese firms have lost a big opportunity by not making DDR4 yet aren't ready with DDR5. When they are ready it will probably tank the market which is less profitable than selling at high prices with actual availability of something the whole time.
