European sales dip in January
T
he European market for
semiconductors decreased by
10.8% versus the previous
month, the World
Semiconductor Trade Statistics
(WSTS) reported. The financial crisis continues to
affect semiconductor industry sales worldwide.
However, a reduction of sales in January is usual
Issue II 2009
and this year no more severe than in the past,
square4
but decreased from a low level in December.

A detailed look at the figures show
European semiconductor sales in January 2009
amounted to US$ 2,274 billion according to
WSTS. This corresponds to a decline of 33.9%
compared to the same month last year. On a
YTD basis semiconductor sales declined by
31.9% in 2009 versus the same period in the
oasiasemiconductor
year 2008.

The exchange rate of the Euro compared to
the US dollar kept its decline rate in January,
holding its impact on the growth data. Measured
in Euro, semiconductor sales in January 2009
were at a further new record low in this decade
of only 1,737 billion Euro, down 10.6% on
previous month and down 26.1% versus the
same month a year ago.
On a year to date basis semiconductor sales
declined by 25.0% in 2009 versus the same time
period in the year 2008.
On a worldwide basis, semiconductor sales
in January 2009 were at US$ 15,330 billion which
was down 11.9% versus the previous month of
semiconductor sales.
This results in a decline of 28.6% versus the
same month in 2008 and on a YTD basis it
results in a decline of 31.2%.
