Abstract
This report presents Taiwanese LCD monitor shipment volume and value
forecasts, as well as recent quarter review of shipment volume, value, ASP,
shipment ranking, shipment by maker, and product mix. Also provides price
trends, production locations, shipment destinations, and business types by
ODM/OBM/private label. The content of this report is based on primary data
obtained through interviews with LCD monitor makers. The report finds that due
to the reduction of orders by branded vendors and channel players which sought
to clear their inventories, global economic downturn, and desktop replacement
effect, the Taiwanese LCD monitor industry volume inched down in the third
quarter of 2008. Meanwhile, the shipment share of widescreen models saw
further growth in this quarter, topping 68%. Looking ahead to the fourth
quarter, the overall economic turmoil worldwide is expected to bear on the
market, driving down both shipment volume and value.
