Behind the Hynix surge
Article Abstract:
Hynix Semiconductor shares jumped almost 30% after restructuring its debt, but analysts fear that the rescue package is not enough to save the company. Hynix received funds from domestic banks (one trillion won), extended loans (four trillion won), and bonds that were rolled over (680 billion won). However, prices for Hynix's main product, dynamic random access memory chips, have been falling steadily.
