Micron Technology, a U.S. memory chip manufacturer, is planning to increase prices on certain products in response to the new tariffs imposed by President Donald Trump. The company, with manufacturing sites mainly in Asia, informed its customers that despite semiconductors being exempt from the tariffs, memory modules and solid-state drives would be subjected to a surcharge. This decision reflects Micron's aim to pass on any additional costs resulting from the tariffs to its customers. The move comes amidst global economic concerns following the tariff announcements, prompting companies to consider whether to absorb the tariffs or transfer them to buyers. The new tariffs have led to a ripple effect across industries, with some manufacturers following Micron's lead in informing U.S. customers about the need to address the tariff impacts independently.
