Outlook 2021

Optimistic outlook for 2021 with some risks but even more opportunities

Smartphones are recovering with China showing growth. Continuous 5G phone releases increase especially DRAM and CIS demand due to more cameras.

PCs booming: continuous home office could push PC demand strongly in 2021. Large part of the growth is from Chromebooks (less NAND content). At the same time high-end Gaming PCs and consoles are practically sold out for 2021.

Servers with some uncertainty for memory demand. Expected uptick could depend on Intel's CPU release or might be impacted by server customers still digesting capacities.

Industrial recovers strongly but is still highly mixed across product categories (e.g. robots up, aerospace down) and regions (e.g. China up, Europe still down, US in-between).

Cars: automotive semiconductor companies and OEMs are bullish for production despite chip shortage talk. Risk for inventory built up. Trend towards xEV and assistant driving systems unbroken.
