When AI servers sell like phones, memory prices spike. Samsung makes more memory than anyone. The math is simple.<\/p>\n<h2>Why This Matters<\/h2>\n<p>This is the largest single-quarter profit any technology company has ever reported. Ever. Full stop. Samsung\u2019s previous record was lower. Apple\u2019s record was lower. Microsoft\u2019s record was lower.<\/p>\n<p>The profit surge reflects an unusual moment in the chip industry. AI demand outpaced supply. Prices doubled in some cases. Customers paid whatever it took. Supply started to ease by July, but the damage was done. Samsung already printed the money.<\/p>\n<h2>The Broader Picture<\/h2>\n<p>Samsung is the world\u2019s largest memory chipmaker. The company makes DRAM and NAND flash\u2014both essential for AI infrastructure. Data centers need memory even more than they need GPUs. You can train an AI model with expensive GPUs but stale, slow memory. You cannot do it the other way around.<\/p>\n<p>This Q2 result is preliminary guidance, not audited earnings. Full results come July 30. Do not be surprised if the actual profit is even higher.<\/p>\n<h2>What Comes Next<\/h2>\n<p>Memory prices are falling again. Supply is catching up. Q3 and Q4 will not match Q2. But the year is still tracking to be Samsung\u2019s best ever. If the company generates $200+ billion in annual profit in 2026, that is a historic moment for the industry.<\/p>\n<p><b>Samsung turned AI infrastructure into the most profitable bet of the decade. The company is printing money.<\/b><\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-center code-block-4\">\n<div style=\"max-width:760px;margin:18px auto;padding:16px 18px;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #dadce0;border-radius:16px;font-family:Arial,sans-serif;box-sizing:border-box;\">\n<div style=\"display:flex;align-items:center;justify-content:space-between;gap:14px;\">\n<div style=\"display:flex;align-items:center;gap:12px;min-width:0;\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Zoom Bangla News\" style=\"width:48px;height:48px;border-radius:50%;object-fit:cover;display:block;flex-shrink:0;\" class=\"perfmatters-lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/inews.zoombangla.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/zoombangla_org_logo_696-yoast.png\"\/><\/p>\n<div style=\"min-width:0;\">\n<p>\nZoom Bangla News<\/p>\n<p>\ninews.zoombangla.com<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/preferences\/source?cs=0&amp;hl=en&amp;q=inews.zoombangla.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" style=\"background:#1a73e8;color:#fff;text-decoration:none;font-size:14px;font-weight:600;padding:10px 18px;border-radius:10px;display:inline-flex;align-items:center;justify-content:center;white-space:nowrap;flex-shrink:0;\"><br \/>\nFollow<br \/>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-top:14px;padding-top:14px;border-top:1px solid #e5e7eb;text-align:center;\">\n<p style=\"margin:0 0 8px;font-size:16px;font-weight:700;color:#111827;line-height:1.35;\">\nFollow iNews Zoombangla On Google<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0 auto 12px;font-size:13px;line-height:1.6;color:#4b5563;max-width:620px;\">\nOpen the Google follow page and tap the checkmark option to receive more updates from iNews Zoombangla in your Google news feed.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/preferences\/source?cs=0&amp;hl=en&amp;q=inews.zoombangla.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" style=\"display:block;text-decoration:none;max-width:640px;margin:0 auto;\" aria-label=\"Follow iNews Zoombangla On Google\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" height=\"123\" width=\"653\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" alt=\"Follow iNews Zoombangla On Google\" style=\"width:100%;height:auto;border-radius:12px;border:1px solid #dfe1e5;display:block;\" class=\"perfmatters-lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/inews.zoombangla.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/1-17.jpg?w=788&amp;strip=all&amp;quality=65\"\/><br \/>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><input id=\"daextamp-post-id\" type=\"hidden\" value=\"3266924\"\/><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Samsung reported second-quarter operating profit of 89.4 trillion won, or roughly $58.4 billion.
