Actually people should worry about food more than computer chips shortfall

No chips won't die but no food will cause famine

Now already Aug 21 yet palm oil stocks only 1.5 million tonnes

Later if not enough palm oil, wheat flour, corn or soybean how ??

There will be panic buying

" Now, the impact of the supply crunch is spreading to consumer tech. Apple CEO Tim Cook warned last week that a limited supply of semiconductors would hurt sales of iPhones. Microsoft is struggling to make enough Xbox consoles and Surface laptops. Elon Musk told a court last month that the chip shortage meant Tesla would only be able to manufacture about half as many Powerwall home batteries as it thinks it can sell. "

Actually food is low tech & can get many substitute loh!

Bcos...we are technology so advance in food production...we can easily cover the food requirement mah!

These days...there is no famine....if there is a shortages...u just pay more loh...like palmoil u get supply mah!

but for chips....when there is a shortages mean shortages...cannot get supply even u willing to pay more mah!

Bcos not many can produce loh!

Upstream players, Wafer & chips manufacturers will be fetching good profits next year as chips supply crunch has occurred and many tender high prices to secure their requirements. It doesn't mean downstream players would be benefited as well.

Anyway, long haul investors of mid & downstream industries would ignore the short and mid term effect of the supply crunch. It is back to your investment horizon in the end.

The market has priced in semiconductor companies to report better profits in the next 2 quarters max. No big deal. Everyone knows well and it is similar with the investors know glove ASP decreasing as new supply capacity emerged.

Posted by calvintaneng > 2021-08-16 16:25 | Report Abuse

Correct

Gloves have gone up into peak cycles and now gradually descending

2 factors

1. All glove companies saw peak earnings and some gave bonus issues and many spending money in bullish expansion

New glove wannabees joining in will end in glut

China also join the glove bandwagon

As a result the future will be flooded with gloves everywhere

TSMC is the price setter of semiconductor chips and the market offers merely PER 30x. The company will keep growing in next 2 years as they can simply increase prices of the products. TSMC, Samsung and Intel had their plans for the new chips factory. Unfortunately, the new capacity will only be ready after 30 months.

In the absent of new chips capacity, how on earth our Bursa OSAT, ATE and EMS to grow the business in year 2022 and 2023?

Global chip shortage may last until 2023, says Infineon CEO
Author: Tan KW | Publish date: Tue, 17 Aug 2021, 10:37 AM

FRANKFURT: The global chip shortage that’s hampering companies from carmakers to computer manufacturers may linger for years, according to Germany’s biggest semiconductor company, Infineon Technologies AG.

The scarcity “may stretch into 2023” in areas where capacity expansion is slow to catch up with consumer demand, Reinhard Ploss, chief executive officer of Infineon, said in an interview with Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung.

“Building new facilities and clean rooms in which the silicon wafers are processed into chips can take two to two and a half years; upgrading existing facilities three quarters to one year,” he said.

The chip crunch this year is hurting production at companies from Tesla Inc to Apple Inc and Microsoft Corp.

The amount of time it’s taking for manufacturers to get orders filled stretched to more than 20 weeks in July, worsening from the previous month, research by Susquehanna Financial Group showed.

Increased work-from-home needs and the catch-up effect in the automotive industry following pandemic-fuelled delays have become major drivers for the chip industry, according to Ploss. He also cited faster adoption of electric cars and growing demand for renewable energy among factors contributing to the shortage.

Among European companies affected is Volvo Car AB.

Its plant in Ghent, Belgium plant won’t run for three days next week due to chip shortages with some 5,000 workers being temporarily unemployed, the De Tijd newspaper reported, citing a company spokesperson.

The plant had shut for five days in the first half for similar reasons.

Ploss called for more efforts in Europe to reduce the continent’s dependence on foreign exporters in the semiconductor business.

He’s “open” to cooperating with other companies as long as it fits Infineon’s business strategy, he said.
