[Bank of Korea Predicts AI-Driven Chip 'Supercycle' to Continue, Dismissing Peak Concerns] BlockBeats News, July 13 — On Monday, the Bank of Korea released a report stating that the global semiconductor market remains in a state of supply shortage and that the current AI-driven 'supercycle' is expected to persist for some time. The bank used this to refute investors' concerns that the chip cycle has already peaked. The Bank of Korea noted in the report: 'Although semiconductor demand has surged significantly due to investments in artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure, the pace of supply expansion has been relatively slow.' The bank added that there are no signs of a slowdown in the semiconductor cycle.
