Semiconductor industry
Article Abstract:
Microchip sales could reach $144 billion in 1999. Strong demand for communications chips, personal computers, consumer electronics, and digital signal processors is not expected to change dramatically. The industry may enjoy a bullish cycle due to the Asia Pacific recovery, diminished concern about Year 2000 cutbacks, transition to the 300 micron process, and pricing power returning to the market.
