I agree!

What you say is true for the major players. Current demand will probably not impact new semi-equip technology purchases. Those folks have the resources to take advantage of down cycles. Not everyone is in that position. It's the second and third tier players that may have to conserve cash during these times. They are the ones who are more likely to put plans on hold temporarily.
