As of Oct 23, 2026 closeVL-MEMORY vs VLMI, indexed. Oct 24, 2025 β Oct 23, 2026.

Source: VLSI Market, computed from collected daily bars (close), index methodology vl-index-1.0.0. Caveat: VL-MEMORY is a three-stock basket β Samsung Electronics, SK hynix and Micron are the memory names present in the collected data; Kioxia, SanDisk and Nanya are absent and are not estimated. Equity baskets are derived indicators, not traded products.

Six coverage verticalsMemory
DRAM, NAND and HBM β product price histories, contract-price forecasts labelled as forecasts, and reported figures kept on separate bases.
Compute & GPU
Accelerators and AI compute equities, launch-price archive, and the rental market the VL-GPU-RENT index will track.
Foundry
Capacity, nodes and the verified tape-out universe β 640 companies checked by name and evidence, 117 with official confirmation.
Equipment
Lithography, etch, deposition, test β the equipment names inside the 112-stock index universe.
EDA & IP
Design tools and licensable IP β the layer where Asia’s fabless ecosystem buys its productivity.
Materials & Packaging
Substrates, advanced packaging and the OSAT chain behind every leading-edge ramp.
Companiesμ λλ²μ€
Full universe βThe collected universe is 114 companies with daily bars; 112 meet the index history requirement and form VLMI. Two are excluded with reasons on record: Qorvo (only 6 bars, stale) and TSMC’s Taipei listing (duplicate issuer β the NYSE ADR is counted). Company pages connect filings, prices and the VLSI Korea analysis that cites them.
