The cause seems to be a combination of increased demand as people scooped up electronics during the COVID-19 pandemic, limited manufacturing capacity to meet that demand, and the U.S.-China trade war.\nMaribel Lopez, principal analyst at Lopez Research, told MarketWatch in an interview the chip industry is facing “a perfect storm” of demand and supply issues that is unlikely to resolve soon.\n“Unless we have a major economic meltdown, which is obviously possible, one of the things that’s happening right now is that almost anything you buy is going to have a chip in it,” Lopez said. “You can’t buy a dumb product.”\nWhile high demand for mobile-device chips in 2020 was expected, the surge in demand for PC-based chips was not, she said. The trend of shrinking chips down to where they can fit in places they haven’t been able to fit before has made the manufacturing process more complex, Lopez noted. The pandemic took those trends and placed an added level of volatility on the supply chains and manufacturing practices dealing with them.\nThe full impact of the chip shortage, however, didn’t hit home to the wider market until General Motors Co. ,Ford Motor Co. and other auto makers said recently they’ve had to shut down production on certain models because of a lack of semiconductors.\nAmid growing concerns from industry leaders,President Joe Biden is set to sign an executive order Wednesday calling for the review of critical U.S. manufacturing supply chains that may rely too much on China, particularly those involving chips and high-capacity batteries.\nWhile the shortage has caused pain for consumers and companies, it has not hurt the chip industry. In a recent note, J.P. Morgan analyst Harlan Sur said this past earnings season was the first the firm has tracked where all covered chip makers not only beat estimates for the quarter but topped expectations for forecasts.\nChip stocks have soared to all-time highs. The PHLX Semiconductor Index,which tracks dozens of the largest chip-related stocks, has gained more than 70% in the past 12 months, compared with a 21% gain on the S&P 500 index,and a 47% rise on the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite Index.\n\nAnalysts believe there could be more gains ahead, though, as demand sends prices higher and boosts companies throughout the semiconductor space. Even as stock fundamentals appear stretched thin, Sur said “we believe semi companies are shipping 10% to 30% BELOW current demand levels and it will take at least 3-4 quarters for supply to catch up with demand and then another 1-2 quarters for inventories at customers/distribution channels to be replenished back to normal levels.”\nSusquehanna Financial analyst Christopher Rolland recently said he expects chip shortages will only get worse heading into the spring. Lead times, or the amount of time an order is placed between it delivery, for semiconductors are entering a “danger zone” of above 14 weeks, the longest they’ve been since the last chip boom of 2018, Rolland said.\nWhile that may be good in the short term for chip suppliers and makers, with some companies estimating demand outstripping supply for several quarters, in the long run it could backfire if not managed well, Rolland said.\nThe chip industry still remembers what happened less than three years ago when it was drowning in a glut of oversupply. Back then, customersoverbought supplies of chipsto lock in lower prices because prices had soared in the 2018 chip boom, causing a steep drop in demand, leaving chip makers with large inventories and plummeting stock prices. Nvidia Corp.,Micron Technology Inc. and Advanced Micro Devices Inc.,along with other industry players were all adversely affected by the glut.\nThose companies are doing what they can to avoid a repeat of the pain that came at the end of the 2018 boom and resulting shortage.Nvidia, for example,said it hoped to ease shortages of gaming cards by launching a chip designed for cryptocurrency mining as cryptocurrencies like bitcoin and ethereum continue soaring to record highs.\nWhile claims of “this time it’s different” should always be taken with a grain of salt, it may very well be different this time around given the unprecedented mix of factors the world has gone through over the past year. Stifel analyst Matthew Sheerin, who follows tech supply chain issues, is more concerned with continued supply-chain disruptions than he is over-ordering.\n“We’ve heard from countless component suppliers and distributors about elevated book-to-bill levels and growing backlog, typically a ‘double-ordering’ red flag,” Sheering said.\n“We don’t see any major correction on the horizon, given ongoing supply constraints as well as continued optimism about improving demand in 2H21,” the Stifel analyst said. “We remain more concerned with continued supply disruptions, and increased materials costs, than we do an imminent multi-quarter inventory correction.”\nChip-equipment suppliers seem confident that chip manufacturers will build out their capacity because of the shortage and next-generation designs that won’t be well served by existing fabs.Applied Materials Inc. said last week it expects to supply a decade-plus investment cycle for chip makers. That followed strong earnings and outlooks from chip-making equipment companiesKLA Corp. and Lam Research Corp. noting that chip makers needed to build out their manufacturing capacities even further.\nCase in point,Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co.,the third-party manufacturing giant that fabricates silicon for many chip makers like Apple Inc.AAPL,and others, said it plans to spend $28 billion to build out its facilities in 2021.Intel Corp. has shied away from a plan to outsource manufacturing chips to companies like TSMC, after encountering problems with its own process technology.\nAMD said it expects a strong 2021 earlier this year, and announcednew laptop and data-center chips.Qualcomm Inc. also reported strong results despite shortages forecast a V-shaped recovery. Meanwhile, Micron appears positioned to take advantage in a rebound in demand.","kind":"news","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":true,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":1},"commentList":[{"id":366999191,"gmtCreate":1614378863413,"gmtModify":1703477066110,"author":{"id":"3571046202315678","authorId":"3571046202315678","name":"linereps","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3d348014f82002028e364ade841b3433","vip":1,"crmLevel":7,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"authorIdStr":"3571046202315678","idStr":"3571046202315678"},"htmlText":"👍","listText":"👍","text":"👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/366999191","repostId":1147687162,"repostType":2,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"comments":[{"id":3692030,"gmtCreate":1614637788953,"gmtModify":1635759823186,"authorId":3571046202315678,"author":{"id":3571046202315678,"idStr":"3571046202315678","authorId":3571046202315678,"name":"linereps","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3d348014f82002028e364ade841b3433","vip":1,"crmLevel":7,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"individualDisplayBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":0,"objectId":366999191,"type":1,"supId":0,"prevId":0,"content":"<u>thanks</u>","text":"<u>thanks</u>","html":"<u>thanks</u>"}],"langContent":"EN"},{"id":368806499,"gmtCreate":1614304700511,"gmtModify":1703476082465,"author":{"id":"3575600795480376","authorId":"3575600795480376","name":"Greenie","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2e5326143a2bd7093ff6102746a82034","vip":1,"crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"authorIdStr":"3575600795480376","idStr":"3575600795480376"},"htmlText":"😎&nbsp;","listText":"😎&nbsp;","text":"😎","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/368806499","repostId":1147687162,"repostType":4,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"EN"},{"id":368133087,"gmtCreate":1614298837049,"gmtModify":1703475967299,"author":{"id":"3480314769640686","authorId":"3480314769640686","name":"春秋投资","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","vip":1,"crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"authorIdStr":"3480314769640686","idStr":"3480314769640686"},"htmlText":"这篇文章不错，转发给大家看","listText":"这篇文章不错，转发给大家看","text":"这篇文章不错，转发给大家看","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/368133087","repostId":1147687162,"repostType":2,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"CN"},{"id":361583751,"gmtCreate":1614246556973,"gmtModify":1634550504835,"author":{"id":"3557993306077325","authorId":"3557993306077325","name":"KongBeng","avatar":"https://static.laohu8.com/default-avatar.jpg","vip":1,"crmLevel":6,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"authorIdStr":"3557993306077325","idStr":"3557993306077325"},"htmlText":"What’s
