按照数据评估公司Semico Research公司的分析,几年来繁荣增长的半导体工业在1998年收入将下降1％,降到1360亿美元。 收入下降的部分原因是由于内存芯片持续的供过于求,这种情况使得这些产品的价位在近几年中达到了谷底。此类芯片的销售额占半导体市场35％的份额。 同时计算机市场的降价浪潮也使得半导体市场价格竞争越发激烈。而且伴随着亚洲金融市场的不稳定,也迫使SemicoResearch公司否定了其在一月发布的5％的估计增长值。 与之相对,今年市场的产品需求量却增长了大约1％,达到2560亿美元。产品的需求自从去年十二月以来就未改变,
According to an analysis by the data evaluation company Semico Research, the semiconductor industry, which has been growing for several years, will see its revenue drop by 1 percent in 1998, to US$136 billion. Part of the reason for the drop in revenue is due to the continuous oversupply of memory chips. This situation makes the price of these products reach the bottom in recent years. Sales of such chips account for 35% of the semiconductor market. At the same time, the wave of price cuts in the computer market has also made the price competition in the semiconductor market increasingly fierce. And along with the instability of Asian financial markets, it also forced Semico Research to negate its estimated growth of 5% in January. In contrast, the market demand for this year’s products has increased by about 1% to reach $256 billion. The demand for products has not changed since December last year.
