Japan's semiconductor firm Kioxia has lost two-thirds of its peak market value due to rising competition from Chinese chip manufacturers.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Semiconductors.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

The rise of Chinese chip makers is shifting market power away from established Japanese suppliers. If you build semiconductors in Japan, prepare for tighter margins and explore partnerships that can defend or grow your market share.
