Semiconductor Group Boosts Estimate
For '99 Chip Sales, Citing Internet Use
By DEAN TAKAHASHI
Staff Reporter of THE WALL STREET JOURNAL

SAN JOSE, Calif. -- Semiconductor sales in 1999 are expected to grow faster than previously predicted because Internet usage is expanding demand for computer and communications chips, according to an industry trade association.


The Semiconductor Industry Association predicted that world-wide chip sales will grow to $140.8 billion in 1999, up 12% from $125.6 billion in 1998. Last October, the trade association expected sales to be up only 9% in 1999.
