Just try to keep to total picture of 46.3 % growth in smartphones as PC's drop 5-10-%.

It in total is a whole lot of IC going out the fabs doors.

Growing portfolio of all kinds of memory and IC's - add to that a largely reduced number of companies either making the equipment and/pr chips and you have a very profitable sector with exceptionally strong balance sheets.

I believe the morphing to stable profits and larger dividend payouts will continue.

Getting out on a limb here,but this sector could well be viewed much like pharma some time in the future.

If we accumulate a portfolio of such companies.we will have done very well in our lifetimes.

It may not be the go go days of 2000 - it may be the boring slow slow days of 2015.
