Article Abstract:
Prospects for the semiconductor industry have improved during the 1st qtr of 1999 and stocks in this industry have become timely for investors. The industry did see a trough in 1998, but the observers expect annual growth rates of 8%-10% in 1999, and 10%-12% in the year 2000, but this is also dependent on the international economic situation. Investors need to focus on those stocks with high ratings and capital-gains potential that are above average.

Article Abstract:
The expected recovery in the semiconductor industry may take longer than many observers anticipated, and may not occur until the 2nd qtr of 2002. Results for the first six months of the year 2002 are also expected to be flat, with better earnings coming later. These stocks are not timely for investors in 2001.
