I’ve never seen a shortage not followed by a glut.

I've seen people mention headlines that memory producers are intentionally not increasing production in order to not have a post-bubble glut - but also found at least one headline suggesting that they were in fact planning new factories, so... Who knows.

I think with the lead time required for new factories that catching up may be super slow. I'm inclined to lead towards the former still even with new fabs coming.
