China Set to Boost Local Chipmaking Equipment Industry -- Market Talk

Dow Jones09-05

0745 GMT - China will likely step up efforts to grow its chipmaking equipment industry over the next two years as it ramps up competition with the U.S., Daiwa analysts Bintuo Ni and Melody Zhao say in a note. "Given the ongoing US-China chip war and long-term outlook, China has every reason to boost the localization rate as fast as possible," they say. Advanced fab expansion, especially from Chinese memory-chip makers, could help drive demand for semiconductor production equipment, which Daiwa forecasts will rise 23% in 2024 but stay flat for 2025 and 2026 given the intense rate of purchasing so far this year. Domestic equipment producers like Naura Technology, Advanced Micro-Fabrication Equipment and Piotech could book strong revenue growth over 2024-2026 on the trend, they say. (sherry.qin@wsj.com)
