Semiconductor sales to fall this year

Stefan Mileschin · 11th October 2015, 15:51

Sales of semiconductors are expected to fall by 0.8 percent during 2015, and that’s the first revenue decline since 2012.

That’s according to Gartner, which said worldwide revenues will total $337.8 billion this year, largely because of a decline in demand from consumers.

“The outlook for the major applications that drive the semiconductor market, including PCs, smartphones and tablets, has been revised downward,” said Andrew Norwood, a research vice president at Gartner.

He said that has combined with the continuing effect of the strong dollar in important markets outside the USA, to cause the decline.
