ECIA Releases Results of Electronic Component Sales Trend (ECST) January 2021 Survey


Following a typical monthly slowdown in December 2020, ECIA’s Electronic Component Sales Trend (ECST) monthly survey reveals strong month-to-month growth in January to start 2021 and expectations for even stronger performance in February. ECIA’s Chief Analyst, Dale Ford explains, “Industry executives and analysts had anticipated a strong start to the year and the results in the early stages are validating those expectations.  Every component category – semiconductors, passives, and electro-mechanical – saw a strong January rebound following the December lull.”

The top-level results of ECIA’s recently completed survey are shown in the figure below.  As a brief explanation, the data presented in this sales index indicate growth when the results are above 100 and declining sales when it registers below 100.

Dale Ford will be presenting the results of this survey and more at the SIA Semiconductor 2020 Review and Outlook 2021 Webinar on Thursday February 4, 2021 at 1 pm EST. Register for the webinar here.
