It really could. Especially if ram makers collude as successfully as they did last time!! Or the time before that! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DRAM_price_fixing_scandal

On the other hand, there are some places in the world scaling quickly to demand. CXMT is starting to ship ddr5 to consumers! https://www.tomshardware.com/pc-components/ddr5/chinese-memo...

China to the rescue again, even while their chip makers are being hit with sanctions and tariffs.
