The ranking of the world's top ten chip companies, China is not on the list!
Some time ago, a list of 25 semiconductor companies in the future was announced.
There are 25 companies in the United States, 13 of which are from the United States and 4 from China, but there are 3 companies in Taiwan, and only SMIC ranks 24th in China. In addition, there are 3 companies from Europe, 3 from Japan, and 2 from South Korea.
This list disappoints many people, who believe that China's chip industry needs to work hard because only strong companies can survive in this market, and weak companies will become even weaker.
Gartner released a list of the world's top 10 semiconductor manufacturers in 2022 some time ago, which excludes integrated circuit design companies and IDMs.
This time, not a single Chinese company made it into the top ten, not even Taiwan, let alone Chinese mainland.
As you can see from the data above, Intel has taken the place of Samsung with a significant drop in DRAM and NAND flash memory** in 2023, while Samsung's sales are down 375%, ranking second in the world.
Qualcomm, Broadcom, Nvidia, SK hynix, AMD, STMicroelectronics, Apple and Texas Instruments are ranked third to tenth.
Among the ten companies, with the exception of Samsung (South Korea), SK Hynix (South Korea), and ST-FA (Europe), the others are all American companies, which shows that the United States is strong in chips.
In terms of gains, Samsung and SK hynix, the two largest memory chip makers, fell by more than 30%; Nvidia's stock price rose the most, reaching 564%, and the performance of other companies is more mediocre.
These lists show that in the chewing gum industry, we still have a big gap with the world's leading companies, especially in the United States, where not a single company is in the top 10 in the world.
As I mentioned earlier, Chinese chewing gum companies need more capital and profits to make more investments to improve their innovation and competitiveness, and without enough capital, they simply cannot survive in this field.
