ChangXin Memory Technologies (CXMT), China's state-backed DRAM maker, surged 466% on Shanghai debut with a market cap now exceeding Intel, raising 57.9bn yuan to expand production. The company has captured 8% global DRAM market share (up from 3% a year prior) and projects 600%+ revenue growth, positioning itself as the fourth major player in a market long dominated by Samsung, SK Hynix, and Micron.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway
If you're selling DRAM, cooling, power, or packaging to Samsung or Micron, you now have a fourth customer with access to unlimited Chinese state capital and 600% revenue growth ahead. The money just moved from defending market share to a player who can undercut on price for a decade.
