SEOUL (Reuters) -- Samsung Electronics flagged on Thursday a gradual global chip demand recovery after an ongoing glut led to continued losses in the technology giant's key business in the June quarter, despite a production cut.

"Looking to the second half of the year, the [memory chip] market is expected to gradually move toward stability considering increasing production cuts in the industry," the world's biggest memory chip and smartphone maker said in a statement.
