Stronger Semiconductor 2018 Than Previously Forecast
In a move reminiscent of the continual upward revisions to semiconductor market forecasts that characterized 2017, market watcher IC Insights has increased its forecast for semiconductor industry growth this year to 15 percent from a previous projection of 8 percent.

Wow

Sunright stocks is about to come across its over sold level, soon it may take a up movement as per the RSI indicator.

Right now it is at 35 points, may it will take deep up to 30-25 and that point it may take an up movement till its 50 points.
So be clam and wait for good opportunity.

Electronics was once again the star performer, expanding 17.4 per cent last month compared to a year ago. This was attributed mainly to the booming semiconductors segment, which posted a robust growth of 26.7 per cent.

China cuts tax rates for chipmakers amid trade tensions

China's response is a surprise for some people," said Julian Evans-Pritchard, senior China economist at Capital Economics, noting that neither said had yet called for enforcement of the tariffs.

"It's more of a game of brinkmanship, making it clear what the cost would be, in the hopes that both sides can come to agreement and none of these tariffs will come into force," he said.

Beijing's list of 25 percent additional tariffs on U.S. goods covers 106 items with a trade value matching the $50 billion targeted on Washington's list, China's commerce and finance ministries said. The effective date depends on when the U.S. action takes effect.

A trade war has not started yet. Today most investors misunderstood that a trade war had started.

The trick is that the US and China did not state when tariffs would be effective, so there is still possibility of discussion about trade tariffs.

Kesm and Sunright are in a very good position.

1. China cuts tax rates for chipmakers amid trade tensions
https://www.reuters.com/article/us-china-semiconductors-taxbreaks/chin...

KESM has a subsidiary in China. Kesm is likely to benefit from that.

2. The US has already reduced the corporate tax rate. ->
Kesm has business dealings with virtually all the American semiconductor manufacturers. Kesm is likely to benefit from that.

3. China's Xi Jinping says tariffs on car imports will be cut this year. -> Kesm has business dealings with virtually all the American semiconductor manufacturers. Kesm is likely to benefit from that.

At first most people thought the US and China would end up with a lose-lose situation. But for Kesm things have already turned out to be a win-win situation.

Two large Chinese ingot and wafer makers have announced bold plans to expand their capacities beyond anything seen to date.

At the end of February, Zhonghuan Semiconductor Chairman and General Manager Shen Haoping braved the bitter cold to personally inspect the installation of new monocrystalline ingot furnaces at the company’s factory in Inner Mongolia, nestled between the Blue Mountains and the Hetao Plateau.

You should know that wafer acts like buffer.


When semiconductor demand increases, wafer shortage may prevent Kesm's net profit from increasing rapidly.

When semiconductor demand decreases, wafer utilisation rate will increase, so it may prevent Kesm's profit from decreasing rapidly.

That's why it is unlikely that Kesm's net profit will decrease rapidly.

2018-04-27 08:47

Part of the reason why wafer shortage still continues is because wafer demand has been increassing rapidly, so it is not necessarily a bad thing.

First Quarter 2018 Silicon Wafer Shipments Increase Quarter-Over-Quarter to Record Level
Milpitas, Calif. — May 14, 2018 — Reaching their highest recorded quarterly level ever, worldwide silicon wafer area shipments jumped to 3,084 million square inches during the first quarter 2018, a 3.6 percent increase over fourth quarter 2017 area shipments of 2,977 million square inches and a 7.9 percent rise over first quarter 2017 shipments, according to the SEMI Silicon Manufacturers Group (SMG) in its quarterly analysis of the silicon wafer industry.

"Global silicon wafer shipment volumes started the year at historic levels,” said Neil Weaver, chairman SEMI SMG and Director, Product Development and Applications Engineering of Shin-Etsu Handotai America. “As a result, silicon shipments, like device shipments, are positioned to be strong this year.”

Silicon wafers are the fundamental building material for semiconductors, which, in turn, are vital components of virtually all electronics goods, including computers, telecommunications products, and consumer electronics. The highly engineered thin round disks are produced in various diameters (from one inch to 12 inches) and serve as the substrate material on which most semiconductor devices or "chips" are fabricated.

All data cited in this release includes polished silicon wafers, including virgin test wafers and epitaxial silicon wafers, as well as non-polished silicon wafers shipped by the wafer manufacturers to end users.

The Silicon Manufacturers Group acts as an independent special interest group within the SEMI structure and is open to SEMI members involved in manufacturing polycrystalline silicon, monocrystalline silicon or silicon wafers (e.g., as cut, polished, epi, etc.). The purpose of the group is to facilitate collective efforts on issues related to the silicon industry including the development of market information and statistics about the silicon industry and the semiconductor market.
