The truth is boring...
There are still areas of concern. Chip sales for the month of September-which are a telling sign for the IC industry for the remaining of the year and going into next year-are less than spectacular. Show me the data

''You know the saying: ‘September makes the year,’ ’’ Hutcheson said. ''September is really soft. This is worldwide. The slowdown in the economy is having a rippling effect in the semiconductor and electronics industries.’’


So what are September chip sales??? - the very first (real) data announced would come from TSMC and UNC ... approximately in 10 days or so from now...SIA will report in a month or so and VLSI Research is remaining its previous forecast - reading this article you would think there is good reason to reduce it
