In January 2024, global semiconductor sales came to a total of 47.63 billion U.S. dollars for the month. When compared to the same month of the previous year, semiconductor sales were up by over six billion U.S. dollars.
Regional semiconductor markets
In 2022, China remained the largest individual market for semiconductors, ahead of the rest of the Asia-Pacific region and the Americas. Semiconductor sales in Europe are lower than in other regions, although this is likely to be boosted by the announcement from the European Union that it wants to set a goal for Europe to produce at least 20 percent of the world’s semiconductors by value by 2030.
Semiconductor capital expenditure (CAPEX)
Increased levels of CAPEX are required across the entire semiconductor value chain to meet the demand for semiconductors from all sectors of the economy. As a result, CAPEX is regarded as a key indicator of growth in the semiconductor industry. In 2010, semiconductor capital spending amounted to 54 billion U.S. dollars – over a decade later, this figure more than tripled to over 180 billion U.S. dollars in 2022.
