Samsung posts record Q2 profit as chip giants benefit from global AI boom

South Korean technology giant Samsung Electronics on Thursday reported a record operating profit of 89.5 trillion won (USD 62 billion) for the April-June period, a day after crosstown rival SK Hynix also reported record earnings, as the world's two largest memory chipmakers continue to ride the global artificial intelligence boom. Despite their soaring profits, the companies' shares have fallen sharply this week in South Korea's volatile stock market, where retail investors often drive sharp swings in share prices, as concerns grow over their plans to spend massively on increasing manufacturing capacity and the prospects of intensifying competition from China. Samsung's second-quarter operating profit was a more than 19-fold increase from a year earlier, and nearly all of it came from its semiconductor business, which benefited from rising chip prices driven by demand for AI servers and increased shipments of advanced high-bandwidth memory chips used to power AI applications.

Samsung faces major strike after wage talks with union fall apart

Management and union leaders at Samsung Electronics failed to reach a last-minute deal over wages Wednesday, raising prospects for a strike at the South Korean electronics giant that could rattle global semiconductor supplies and the country's trade-dependent economy.

After the latest round of talks ended without a breakthrough on Wednesday, union leader Choi Seung-ho told reporters that unionized workers will begin an 18-day strike from Thursday.
