Market Risks
Risks & Considerations
High Cyclicality
The semiconductor industry is notorious for boom-and-bust cycles. Oversupply or sudden drops in demand can lead to significant price volatility.
Geopolitical Factors
Supply chains are highly globalized. Trade tensions, export controls on high-end AI chips, and manufacturing concentration in Taiwan present systemic risks.
Technological Obsolescence
Companies must reinvest heavily in R&D. Failing to keep pace with smaller nanometer nodes or new AI architectures can lead to rapid market share loss.
