In April, the global economic index has slowed down year-on-year, and uncertainty still exists. Specifically, apart from China, major economies such as the United States, the European Union, Japan, and South Korea still face prominent contradictions in the uneven global economic recovery below the boom bust balance line.

Since the beginning of this year, the mild recovery trend of the global economy has changed the expectations of major economic organizations for global economic growth. The IMF predicts a global economic growth rate of 3.2% in 2024, which is 0.1 percentage points higher than the forecast in January this year.
From January to March 2024, the production of China's electronic information manufacturing industry steadily increased, exports continued to rebound, efficiency continued to improve, investment maintained a high growth rate, and regional revenue differentiation was evident.

According to the latest SIA data, global semiconductor industry sales in March were $45.91 billion, a year-on-year increase of 15.2%, and the month on month decline narrowed.The data shows that the cyclical recession of the semiconductor industry has bottomed out, and the improvement of final demand and the end of inventory normalization will support the gradual recovery of the industry.
