IBC: Alert -- Sitek and Applied Materials lead semis higher

JAN 13, 2000, M2 Communications - Irvine, CA --
(www.ibchannel.com/ibcplus) -- Ibchannel.com reported today that
semiconductor stocks were broadly higher today - Sitek (OTCBB: SITK) up
over 6% and Applied Materials up over 3.5%.

Experts at the annual Semiconductor Industry Strategy Symposium
forecasted a banner year for semiconductor companies such as Applied
Materials (Nasdaq: AMAT) and Sitek (OTCBB: SITK) that make the
equipment and materials which in turn make the chips or electronic
brains used in everything from desktop PCs to portable wireless
telephones. Growth in the Industry Could Run up to 40% in 2000 With
Several Years of Back-to-back Growth on the Horizon.

Dan Rose, president of research firm Rose Associates, said that the
upturn was so strong it was producing shortages of materials needed to
make key components used in computing systems. He also said the
companies that make silicon wafers, the foundation of most electronic
devices, were starting to increase their prices because of the rising
demand. Experts remarked the explosion could push growth in the
industry by as much as 40 percent in 2000, depending on a number of
factors. He said he could easily see growth in orders running 27
percent in 2000, and a similar percentage in 2001.
