Semiconductor revenues continue to fall. which appears to be a repeat of the collapse in 2019
Spot market prices, a leading indicator, are soft for both DRAM and NAND flash
It is likely that semiconductor revenues will end the year by returning to the trendline of their historical growth of 3.9%


Semiconductors Just Beginning a Long Slide

<ul>
<li>WSTS June semiconductor revenues indicate the onset of a trend of flat-to-down sales</li>
<li>Recent chip company earnings calls largely project a down market in the current quarter</li>
<li>This is most likely the beginning of a 1½ -year downturn in semiconductors</li>
</ul>

Semiconductor Revenues Remain Well Above Trend

<ul>
<li>The SIA commented today on the impact to US semiconductor makers of sanctions against Russia</li>
<li>Russia accounts for negligible consumption of technology products, so embargos should not materially impact chip sales</li>
<li>The SIA believes that there are sufficient alternate sources of supply that the absence of Russian raw materials should not pose an immediate risk</li>
