Agency: MLCC Supplier Shipments Projected to Drop 3% MoM in Q1
2025-01-15

A report by TrendForce highlights that both the count of non-farm jobs and the Manufacturing Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) in the United States surpassed market forecasts in December 2024. Consequently, the Federal Reserve might scale back interest rate cuts in 2025, fostering a prolonged high-interest rate environment. This scenario is anticipated to curb terminal consumption and erode corporate confidence in investment expansion. TrendForce estimates that the total shipments of Multi-Layer Ceramic Capacitors (MLCC) suppliers in the first quarter of 2025 will reach over 1,146.7 billion units, marking a 3% month-over-month decrease.
