Chipsverkopen in augustus lagen 5.5% hoger dan een jaar geleden.
Dat duidt naar mijn mening nog steeds op groei, het heersende doemdenken ten spijt.

August Semiconductor Sales Up 5.5 Percent Year-on-Year

SIA Cautious About Near-Term Industry Outlook

SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Worldwide sales of semiconductors grew by 5.5 percent to $22.7 billion in August from August 2007 sales of $21.5 billion. Sales grew by 2.4 percent from July when sales were $22.2 billion. Year-to-date sales through August were $170.2 billion, an increase of 4.5 percent from the same period of 2007 when sales were $162.9 billion.

“Global sales of semiconductors remained strong in August,” said SIA President George Scalise. “Sales of personal computers and cellular handsets continued to be the principal drivers of demand. Continuing price pressure on DRAMs and NAND flash memory dampened overall industry growth. Excluding memory products, industry sales were up by 11.4 percent year-on-year in August. Year-to-date sales were 4.5 percent ahead of last year and remain in line with the SIA mid-year forecast of 4.3 percent growth in 2008,” Scalise continued.

According to a recent Credit Suisse report, PC unit sales are projected to grow by more than 13 percent in 2008. Unit sales grew by 9.1 percent year-on-year in August, a modest slowdown from July. Worldwide unit sales of cellular handsets remained strong – especially in emerging markets. Unit sales of cellular handsets are forecast to grow about ten percent in 2008, with the strongest growth coming from emerging markets.

“With consumer purchases now driving more than half of semiconductor sales, consumer confidence is essential to the entire supply chain of the global technology sector; thus it is essential for Congress to move swiftly to restore stability to the U.S. financial system,” Scalise concluded.

De tabellen tonen dat alleen de Americas een daling ondergingen, alle andere werelddelen waren positief, met name Azië en de Pacific.

Men moet zich wel realiseren dat het bovenstaande cijfer van 5,5% uitsluitend betrekking heeft op de revenuen. In termen van chipsvolumes liggen de groeicijfers veel hoger dan 5,5% zoals aangegeven. En laat volumes nou juist de drijvende kracht zijn achter de groei en het verkoopsucces van ASML.
