Some industries will expand despite mild near-term challenges simply because of their inherent characteristics. Technology companies typically perform well when the economy is growing rapidly, but as soon as a cloud begins to appear, the sector begins to falter. As has become clear throughout this year, the high technology industry has two sides. One such sector is the semiconductor industry, which was worth $527 billion last year. By 2029 it is expected to grow to a whopping $1.3 trillion at a compounded annual growth rate of 12.2%. Driving this growth will be the higher demand for consumer electronics. With the aforementioned growth rate, the semiconductor industry, which was worth $556 billion in 2021, will be worth $900 billion in 2027. Another study predicts that businesses would grow their spending at a CAGR of 6.81% during the following five years.
