Overview of Semiconductor Market Changes

The semiconductor market has experienced significant fluctuations over the past few years, particularly influenced by post-COVID dynamics. Following the pandemic, a downturn began in 2022, impacting enterprise computing and consumer electronics, while the automotive industry saw a notable decline starting in mid-2023 from its previous chip shortage struggles. Despite these downturns, the market seems distorted due to heightened interest and investments in artificial intelligence (AI) and accelerated computing, primarily surrounding companies like NVIDIA. This divergence indicates a complex landscape where sectors not tied to AI face typical cyclical declines, while AI-related sectors continue their seemingly robust growth.
