Did you see the story about the chipmakers?

"....S.G. Cowen analyst Tia-min Pang concurred, saying that ''Following a flattish remainder of (1999), we believe that the industry will re-accelerate in 2000.'

The three-month average of worldwide shipments in July 1999 was $1.3 billion, SEMI said in a report issued late Thursday.

The figure was essentially flat with the June 1999 level but was 14 percent above the shipment level of $1.1 billion in July 1998,when the industry was still in a slump.

The three-month average of bookings in July 1999 was $1.4 billion. The bookings figure was 8 percent below June 1999 but 96 percent above the July 1998 level of $718 million."

Bill, AMAT's future looks good! AMAT is Texas Instrument's supplier. TXN will need many, many chips for their DSP electronics! Intel may be an AMAT customer as well.
