The electronics industry is defeated by Japan earthquake

The magnitude 9 earthquake happened in northeast Japan shocked the whole world. As Japan plays an important role in the world economy, it doesn't only affect many fields in Japan, but also affects the whole industry in the world.

The customs statistics show that we are imported about 18 billion dollars integrated circuit from Japan. It's about the one-tenth of China import that year. The earthquake affects the import of the China cheap cameras chip industry. And there is price rising possibility in the market.

The price of chip and memory product increases greatly. The increase is around 10 percent. The price of Canon, Sony, Toshiba and Panasonic digital camera, digital camcorder and notebook is relatively stable. There is price rising with the accessories.

The Japan chip industry occupies one fifth of the field in the world. The earthquake is near the semiconductor manufacturers. After the earthquake, Toshiba, Panasonic and Nikon manufacturers close the related factories.

The American spokesman of the world second largest flash manufacturer Toshiba said all the factories are checking the damage condition. Except for the delievery break-up caused by the factory damage, the production transportation will be affected the road, railway and air transportation.

Except for the chip industry, for the world electronics industry, another affected inudstry is the LCD panel. As it's known to us, the LCD panel is the important component of the tablet and flat TV. The world second and third glass substrate manufacturing enterprises are near the earthquake place. The earthquake will absolutely affect the world LCD panel industry.

And there is world largest electronic components manufacturer. They mainly produce the capacity, resistance and inductance. The earthquake also affects the world electronic components supply chain.

The Japan electronic manufacturer is relatively conservative. They only maintain the key technology in home and put the assembling abroad. The earthquake will promote them to consider the world layout of the key production technology to share the risk. The Japan car industry has many layouts in the world production. Thus, the affect will not be that serious.

The earthquake may have a positive effect on other important memory chip production bases in Korea and China Taiwan. The panel industries in Korea and China Taiwan are expected to gain more opportunities when Sharp in difficult condition.

Of course, there is possiblity that some chip dealer or digital products and electronic components dealers will make the use of the opportunity to gain the quick profits.
