*** Semiconductor equipment book-to-bill in June lower

North American semiconductor equipment manufacturers saw a decline in
orders in June, pushing down the industry's benchmark measurement of
orders to shipments, or the book-to-bill ratio, to 0.74. According to
Semiconductor Equipment and Materials International, a trade group
representing the equipment manufacturers, preliminary figures showed
$74 in orders were received for every $100 worth of products shipped
in June. "Contrary to everyone's hopes, May 1998 was not the bottom
of the downturn cycle, although shipments were essentially equal to
those of a year ago," said an analyst with SEMI. The revised figure
for May's book-to-bill was 0.81, SEMI said. See
