The COVID-19 outbreak is now travelling around the world, leaving a trail of destruction in its wake. This report discusses the impact of the virus on leading companies in the semiconductors sector.

This report analyzes the impact of COVID-19 on the global semiconductors sector:

    --  It identifies those companies that may benefit from the impact of
        COVID-19 over a 12-month period, as well as those companies that will
        lose out.
    --  It includes a thematic screen, that ranks the 58 leading companies in
        this sector on the basis of overall leadership in the 10 themes that
        matter most to their industry, including COVID-19. This generates a
        leading indicator of future performance.

Key Highlights

    --  In the space of three months, the backdrop for the semiconductor sector
        has changed, but long-term issues remain and must be solved.
    --  The industry entered 2020 amid slowing global economic growth, the
        rancor of the US-China trade war, a desire to shift the global supply
        chain away from dependence on China, and a flat sales picture for its
        two biggest customers: smartphone manufacturers and laptop suppliers.
    --  The COVID-19 pandemic will shrink worldwide end-user demand for everyday
        products powered by semiconductors. COVID-19's impact also means much of
        the industry is only operating at about 50% capacity, though China is
        moving again. At the same time, the global supply chain has stalled,
        exacerbated by COVID-19-related border checks that could last for
        months.

Reasons to Buy

    --  COVID-19 is by far the most significant theme to affect the technology
        industry in 2020.
    --  It is effectively a stress test on companies' ability to cope with
        extreme shocks.
    --  COVID-19 will test the financial robustness of companies.
    --  Many companies will not survive this initial phase. Almost all others
        will suffer a significant drop in revenues.
    --  This report will help you understand the impact of COVID-19 on the
        semiconductors sector and identify which types of companies could
        potentially benefit from the impact of COVID-19, as well as those
        businesses that are set to lose out.
