Benchmarking for electronic components 2008/ 2009

In view of dramatic changes in the current economic crisis, the cards will be shuffled anew for electronics component prices. The consequences of the following effects in their entirety are increasingly difficult to assess:
collapse of demand across all industries in the range of 25 - 28% against 2008 
strong USD and JPY exchange rate fluctuations
the resulting dramatic losses of semiconductor manufacturers since mid 2008 and the measures to be expected thereof 

These risks can currently - as in the automotive industrie - hardly be conveyed on the vendor side. Customers request further cost reductions in spie of the crisis.

For purchasing, this requires more than ever a secure assessment of the own market position in order to react as soon as possible to eventual need for action.
