While announces the weak performance of global semiconductor sales in April , the U.S. Semiconductor Industry Association (SIA) quoted the World Semiconductor Trade Statistics (WSTS) organization' released figures that the organization has lowered its 2013 and 2014 years of semiconductor industry growth rate estimates. WSTS's latest forecast data indicates that in 2013 the output value of the global chip market could reach 2,978 billion U.S. dollars, compared with 2.1% in 2012 older; 2014 the market value may grow 5.1 percent, to 3,129 U.S. $ 2 billion, as in 2015 the same growth rate is expected Only 3.8% of the single digits. WSTS in November 2012 published forecast data is 2013 and 2014 global chip market growth rates were 4.5% and 5.2%. In terms of the regional market, WSTS latest projections indicate that in 2013 Asia-Pacific semiconductor market could grow by 5.7%, Europe and the Americas market growth rates were 5.3% and 1.6%; while the Japanese semiconductor market in the fear of sharp decline of 13.8%. But did not make cut WSTS forecast reason.SIA also published in April the three-month average of global chip sales to $ 23.62 billion based on WSTS's statistics, although lower than expected ─ ─ CarnegieGroup analyst forecast of $ 23.5 billion BruceDiesen ─ ─ satisfactory performance, but with the same month last year, 240.6 one hundred million U.S. dollars compared to the present recession. Global chip sales in April compared with three-month average of $ 23.48 billion last month inched up 0.6%.In the regional market performance, the Asia-Pacific semiconductor market in April sales were up 3 percent from the same month last year, while Europe grew 0.4%; but at the same time American and Japanese chip market in April sales, respectively, compared with the same month decline of 4.4% 19.4%, which causes recession and the yen depreciated about. "In recent months since the semiconductor industry sales growth strength, though limited, but steady, I expect the next few months and in 2014 there will be more robust growth; With summer approaching, though still sluggish macroeconomic environment, we believe that global Semiconductor industry is facing the right direction. "SIA chief executive BrianToohey pointed out that because the market for memory and logic chips strong product demand, this year's chip industry sales continued to slightly exceed 2012 overall performance.
