三星晶圆厂,压力大增
半导体行业观察· 2025-04-27 01:26
如果您希望可以时常见面,欢迎标星收藏哦~ 来源:内容 编译自 chosun ,谢谢。 台积电美国业务的困境在全球半导体行业引发波澜,引发了人们对在亚洲以外建设先进晶圆厂的可 行性的怀疑,而三星电子在德克萨斯州的工厂即将完工之际也陷入了困境。 尽管台积电已在亚利桑那州工厂投入运营,但由于劳动力成本上涨和持续的基础设施投资,该工厂 仍深陷亏损。过去四年,该公司报告称,该工厂累计亏损394.5亿新台币(约合12.2亿美元)。此 外,在与美国总统唐纳德·特朗普会晤后,台积电首席执行官魏哲家在今年3月宣布了一项新的 1000亿美元投资计划,突显出地缘政治压力正迫使企业加倍投资美国业务。 损失也蔓延到了台积电的其他国际工厂。在日本,其子公司JASM于2024年底在熊本开始生产12纳 米及更老的芯片后,亏损创纪录地达到43.8亿新台币。在德国,其新建的德累斯顿工厂亏损了5亿 新台币。 如今,三星也面临类似的困境。由于泰勒工厂尚未获得主要客户,分析师警告称,一旦工厂投产, 三星可能立即面临运营亏损——而美国的劳动力和制造成本远高于韩国,这无疑加剧了三星的困 境。韩国国内的晶圆代工业务目前已处于亏损状态。 这些财务风险或许是三 ...

指数继续分化,耐心等待机会
格隆汇APP· 2025-04-22 09:08
今日, A 股市场延续近期震荡格局,三大指数涨跌不一,两市成交额 维持 万亿元 以上 。 一、指数表现: 各大指数继续分化 在黄金与贵金属板块,由于国际金价突破 3500 美元 / 盎司创历史新高, 四川黄金、西部黄 金 等相关个股上涨,反映出市场避险需求显著。 然而,市场并非普涨格局。算力与 AI 应用板块表现弱势,英维克 因业绩 跌停, AI 软件类板 块回调,反映资金从高估值科技股撤离。 消费电子板块受美股科技股拖累,立讯精密跌 3% ,板块整体承压。这些板块的下跌,一方面 是由于前期涨幅较大,存在回调需求;另一方面,也与市场对科技行业的盈利预期和宏观环境 变化有关。 三 、调整动因:获利回吐与内外压力并存 今日市场下跌的原因主要有以下几点: 一是科技成长 板块前期 积累了较大涨幅, 获利盘回吐压力较大,如算力与 AI 应用等板块, 在缺乏新的重大利好刺激下,资金选择落袋为安。 二是宏观经济数据及政策预期的不确定性, 尽管部分政策对部分板块有明显刺激,但整体市场 对于经济复苏的节奏和力度仍存在担忧,这使得投资者在配置上更为谨慎。 今日, A 股市场 继续 呈现出指数分化。截至收盘,沪指低开高走,最终收涨 ...
