“The global semiconductor market continued to grow during the third quarter of 2024, with quarter-to-quarter sales increasing at the largest rate since 2016,” said SIA President and CEO John Neuffer. “Sales in September reached the market’s highest-ever monthly total, driven by a 46.3% year-to-year increase in the Americas.”
Regionally, year-to-year sales in September were up in the Americas (46.3%), China (22.9%), Asia Pacific/All Other (18.4%), and Japan (7.7%), but down in Europe (-8.2%).
