“Civilization and profit go hand in hand.”– Calvin Coolidge (1872-1973) 30th President of the United States
After a decent first quarter, the big players of the semiconductor industry are expecting smoother sailing throughout the next few quarters. Especially now that supply chain setbacks resulting from the flooding in the third quarter of last year have fully recovered and consumer demand is improving.
Specifically, the Semiconductor Industry Association (SIA) announced in early May 2012 that global sales of semiconductors in Q1 2012 had reached nearly $70 billion. Although this was a slight decrease of about 8 percent from last year’s first quarter sales and a slight sequential decline from Q4 2011, the upwards trends are encouraging, especially in Europe and Japan, which had seen very poor results over the last few quarters of 2011.
As all regional markets continue to recover, it is expected that there will be moderate seasonal growth during the second quarter which will continue to build momentum as the year continues on.The industry’s recent good fortunes can be especially attributed to the unrelenting popularity of mobile devices including smartphones and tablets, such as Apple’s market leading iPhone.... read more
