Finance Associated Press, January 10 (edited by Zhou Ziyi).Global semiconductor sales showed monthly growth for the first time in more than a year. This latest indication is that customer demand for semiconductors is starting to take place, driven by emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence.
The Washington-based Semiconductor Industry Association (SIA) said on Tuesday (January 9).Global semiconductor revenue reached $48 billion in November last year, an increase of 5 percent from the same period last year3%, an increase of 29%。
It is worth mentioningChina led the growth in global semiconductor revenue in November。According to released data, China's semiconductor sales in November increased by 7 percent year-on-year6%, of which semiconductor sales to the Americas increased by 35%, and semiconductor sales to Europe increased by 56%。
By revenue, SIA's figures represent 99% of the U.S. semiconductor industry and nearly two-thirds of non-U.S. semiconductor companies.
In a world that is increasingly reliant on digital products and services, semiconductors will be key components. The semiconductor industry has struggled over the past year due to weak demand in key markets such as smartphones, and high interest rates that have dragged down economic growth and**, and the year ahead is expected to see strong movements.
John Neuffer, President of SIA, said, "Global semiconductor sales in November 2023Year-on-year growth for the first time since August 2022, which indicates that the global semiconductor market continues to strengthen as we enter the new year. Looking to the future,The global semiconductor market is expected to witness double-digit growth in 2024
However, Samsung Electronics, the world's largest memory chip maker, reported this week that its operating profit fell for the sixth consecutive quarter, and its revenue also declined. Although memory chips account for only one part of the global chip market, this may also indicate thatThe return to growth among manufacturers may be uneven
