TSMC's company, expects over the next five years, every year to increase revenues in the range of 5-10%. Of course, TSMC's done everything possible to arrive at such a result. In general, the market for semiconductors is not so rosy: restriction of the PC market, smartphones and tablets; heavy economic situation in the world; Political tension and more. However, some analysts have found positive points. Gartner Specialists , for example, the second time this year have improved the outlook for volumes of capital funding the semiconductor industry.
According to Gartner the original forecast, the volume of capital expenditure in 2016 in relation to the costs could be reduced by 5% in 2015. In May, the forecast was adjusted to 2% reduction. Fresh report says that the improved market conditions in the second half of the year will lead to an increase in the capital costs of the industry and, thus, the volume of capital expenditures in 2016 will decrease compared with the previous year by 1% to $ 64.3 billion.
It is necessary to clarify the main factor in the forecast change was the aggressive policy of the Chinese government, expressed in irrepressible growth of national semiconductor industry financing . According to analysts, over the next few years is the "alter competitive landscape." China is becoming a major market for semiconductors and semiconductor manufacturing.
A bit of negativity added that the British voted for England out of the European Union. Along with the increase in semiconductor sales in the second half of 2016, England's exit from the EU may trigger the processes related to the forced creation of inventories of chips (just in case). In the short term the market is a little warm up, but then necessarily lead to a reduction in production. Related Products :
