Top indicators identified

United States, Imports - Computers, Peripherals and Semiconductors (Census), SA, USD

The volume of imports can serve as a direct indication of the domestic demand. If the U.S. is importing more computers, peripherals, & semiconductors, it suggests a rising demand for them within the country.

How we can help you

Intel stock price

While Intel's stock price offers valuable insights into the semiconductor industry's trends and potential demand shifts, it should not be used in isolation. Forecasting semiconductor demand would require analyzing a combination of factors, with stock prices being just one of many variables to consider.

How we can help you

United States, Retail Sales, Electronics and Appliance Stores, Current Prices, SA, USD

This reflects consumer spending & demand for these products. As semiconductors are key components in many electronic devices and appliances, a surge in retail sales can be indicative of a surge in demand.
