Global and Chinese Semiconductor Equipment Industry Report, 2013-2014
M2 - Fri Feb 14, 2:56AM CST
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/h4sxrs/global_and) has announced the addition of the "Global and Chinese Semiconductor Equipment Industry Report, 2013-2014" report to their offering. After two years of recession, the semiconductor equipment market is projected to achieve growth in 2014. In 2011, the semiconductor equipment market size hit a record high of USD43.532 billion, but it witnessed a drop by 15.2% in 2012 and a further decline by 8.1% in 2013. The reduction came mainly as the steep decrease of backlog orders from North America and South Korea. Notably, the contracted orders from North America resulted largely from the glooming PC market and Intel's reduction of capital expenditure for equipment, while the shrinkage of orders from South Korea was heavily duel to the suspension of investment in DRAM. In 2014, the driving force of the semiconductor equipment market is mainly sourced from foundry and memory. In particular, foundry began to step into 20nm domain, while memory is ushering in 3D era. In the era of 20nm, semiconductor vendors employ two routes: double/multiple patterning and EUV. Double/multiple patterning is more technologically advanced than EUV, although it means substantial cost rise in manufacturing and equipments, especially for etching equipments. EUV can cut the manufacturing and equipments cost significantly, albeit EUV itself costs as high as USD100 million. But counted by the total cost, 14nm wafer equipped with EUV technology is roughly 40% lower than that equipped with multiple patterning technology. However, there are many hurdles for EUV remained to be addressed. One of them is light source. Multiple e-beam direct write is well low-efficiency, thus failing to meet the standard for practical use. Equipment vendors have failed to catch up with the development of foundry, especially the ASML which almost monopolize the global lithography market, so foundry will have to slow down their pace towards advanced node. The cost of multiple patterning may be OK for customers, but it is not the case when it comes to the cost of triple patterning. Nevertheless, this cannot prevent industrial players from making continued research, so the procurement of equipments still keeps growing. Taiwan became the largest semiconductor equipment market. Taiwan-based industrial players such as TSMC and UMC make bulk buying of advanced equipments. The estimate shows that Taiwan semiconductor equipment market size will bag USD10.99 billion by 2014 and that the figure by 2015 will slightly decline to USD10.88 billion.

Lehman Brothers Settlement and Cannabis Hype Fuel Active Penny Stocks: Fannie Mae (OTC Bulletin Board: FNMA), Plandai Biotechnology (OTCQB: PLPL), AIA Group, Ltd. (OTCPINK: AAGIY), Tokyo Electron Ltd. (OTCPINK: TOELY)
ACCESSWIRE - Mon Feb 03, 7:02AM CST
A long, dragged-out, Lehman Brothers settlement with Fannie Mae coming to fruition, hype on the legal-marijuana industry and general speculation about an economic recovery is fueling stock volume on the most active penny stocks. Lehman Brothers Settles With Fannie Mae In the mortgage sector, Fannie Mae (OTC Bulletin Board: FNMA) shares continue to be a very active stock. The government-sponsored enterprise, charged with stabilizing the secondary mortgage market, traded 7,628,050 shares Jan. 31. In part, this could be due to Judge James Peck approval on Jan. 29 of Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc.'s settlement with Fannie Mae over $18.9 billion in mortgage claims. Fannie Mae will receive a general unsecured claim of $2.15 billion against Lehman. Under Lehman's Chapter 11 payment plan, this amounts to a recovery of about 25 cents on the dollar, or about $537.5 million. In addition, Fannie Mae and others' optimistic outlook for the 2014 housing market is fueling its spike in volume. In a Jan. 13 statement, Fannie Mae's Chief Economist Doug Duncan said that despite the rise in mortgage rates since the spring, many housing indicators posted strong gains at the end of 2013 and consumer housing attitudes are strengthening, "all of which bodes well for continued but measured housing recovery in 2014." In addition, Fannie Mae's sister company Freddie Mac (FMCC), is planning to sell $1 billion of securities tied to the risk of homeowner defaults, almost matching the amount issued since the deals began last year. This is according to a person with knowledge of the transaction. FNMA shares closed at $3.11 up 2 cents from its closing price of $3.11 the previous day.
