Impact due to decline in the average selling price of products, including gu to (Gartner), and other research institutions have cut semiconductor production forecast, this year much by the growth of the previously estimated single-digit percentage points, down to a recession single-digit percentage point level.

According to the international semiconductor industry association (SEMI), points out that gartner forecasts, original in semiconductor industry output value will increase 1.9% this year. The world semiconductor trade statistics organization (WSTS) is also forecast, semiconductor industry output will grow by 1.4%.

Cowen LRA forecast, semiconductor production growth of 4.9% this year; IC Insights forecast, semiconductor GDP will grow by 4%. SEMI said, various research institutions more than originally forecast, semiconductor production will grow low single-digit percentage point level.

Just according to the statistics of WSTS, in the first half of the semiconductor production fell 6% during the same period last year; SEMI statistics, in the first half of the semiconductor equipment shipment amount fell 3% during the same period last year.

In addition, in the first half of the silicon wafer delivery area also fell 2% during the same period last year.

Including gartner research the agencies have to downgrade this year semiconductor production forecast, and instead of growing, more into recession single-digit percentage points, product selling prices is the main reason affect output decline; Gartner is expected, semiconductor production will be reduced by 3%; WSTS also forecast, semiconductor production will be reduced by 2.3%.
