“Downturn? What downturn?”

The Semiconductor Industry Association stands by its estimate that chip
sales will end the year up 31%, at $195 billion. It projects 60% total growth
in chip sales over the next three years. Industry executives line up behind these
numbers and say, “Downturn? What downturn?”

Chips for networking are driven by Internet usage, he explains, and the
telecomm opportunities are virtually “limitless.”

Tom Kurlak’s personal measuring stick comes straight from the top.
“Gordon Moore [Intel’s chairman emeritus] once told me that the
semiconductor businesses should grow between two to three times faster than
the gross domestic product, so if it grows next year at 3% to 4% it’s still
healthy.” Kurlak also cautions about making year-to-year comparisons against
depressed numbers. “There’s also a lot of misinformation,” he believes.
“Unchecked commentary from the rumor mill is this industry’s worst enemy,”
he says.
