Longbow analyst Nikolay Todorov said his memory supply chain checks point to weaker demand and pricing trends in both DRAM and NAND, noting that inventory levels remain a major headwind. In addition to high inventories, calendar third quarter pricing forecasts are trending lower than 60 days ago, said the analyst, who sees increased risk of a muted recovery in the second half. Todorov, who lowered his estimates for both Micron (MU) and Western Digital (WDC), has a Neutral rating on the former and a Buy rating on the latter stock.
