SK Hynix averts strike with union bonus deal; chip supply risk recedes

SK Hynix and its union reached a bonus agreement, removing the immediate threat of a strike at the world's second-largest memory chipmaker. The deal reduces near-term supply disruption risk for memory chips, though the underlying chip shortage easing trend continues. The resolution supports stable chip supply expectations, but the impact is limited as it addresses a labor dispute rather than a fundamental shift.
