BofA Predicts Global Chip Market to Near Double by 2030, Highlighting Semiconductor ETFs

Yahoo Finance ·

Amid escalating discussions regarding artificial intelligence safety and calls for a measured developmental pace, Bank of America forecasts that the worldwide semiconductor market will expand nearly twofold by the end of the decade. According to BofA, the sector is projected to surge from $1.7 trillion in 2026 to $3.2 trillion by 2030, propelled by robust demand for AI infrastructure, memory, and data centers. The Philadelphia Semiconductor Index recently rose 3.14% on Thursday, maintaining strong year-over-year gains of 91.19%. Memory sales are anticipated to climb from $937 billion to $1.8 trillion, while wafer-fabrication equipment spending is expected to more than double to $359.8 billion by 2030. Although potential slowdowns in hyperscaler spending pose risks, solid customer agreements through 2027 support continued sector momentum. Investors can utilize semiconductor ETFs to navigate volatility while capturing long-term growth.

According to Bank of America's outlook, computing and memory supply contracts are mostly secured through 2027, providing strong earnings visibility. Memory revenue is projected to surge from $937 billion in 2026 to $1.8 trillion in 2030, with semiconductor equipment spending also more than doubling.

In the bullish scenario, continuous AI infrastructure demand will sustain the stock rally of related companies, while in the bearish scenario, short-term volatility could expand if the risk of reduced hyperscaler investments materializes. Key indicators to watch are major big tech capital expenditure (CapEx) plans and semiconductor price trends.
