Annual semiconductor equipment market growth percentages of 9.1 percent, 12.3 percent and 15.4 percent for the years 2006, 2007 and 2008 respectively are set to make up for 11.2 percent market contraction being experienced by the industry as it moves from $37.11 billion in 2004 to $32.95 billion in 2005, according to SEMI’s numbers. The SEMI year-end consensus forecast is based on interviews conducted between late October and November 2005 with companies sell more than half the world’s semiconductor equipment industry sales volume. The survey respondents see the market growing at a single-digit rate in 2006 and resuming double-digit growth over the following two years to reach $46.63 billion in 2008. If this is true, then now is the time to own or start looking for good buys, imo.
