Since Asmack revealed its weak orders for chip manufacturing equipment, the market value has evaporated by more than 60 billion euros, and investors have had to re-evaluate the health of the industry. Following a 16% drop on Monday, the biggest drop in 26 years, the Dutch company fell sharply by 5.8% on Wednesday. Asmack has a monopoly on the production of the most advanced chip manufacturing equipment and is a barometer of the health status of companies such as Intel, Samsung Electronics, and TSMC. Its performance fell short of expectations, triggering a general decline in the semiconductor sector. Its financial report shows that various chip makers have very different lives. Demand for semiconductors that can handle complex loads of artificial intelligence programs has surged, while demand in other fields is sluggish. Asmack did not provide a specific reason why orders for the third quarter were less than half of analysts' predictions; it only indicated that some customers delayed building factories.
