Bible 1Q23 – Industrials: Downcycle approaching?

Today, we are publishing the Industrials section of our 19th Tech Infrastructure Quarterly Bible. The Tech Bible is a must-read for any tech investor, as it summarizes the quarterly earnings reports from the over 130 companies we track, providing an update on our key perspectives and convictions.

We are at a turning point in the cycle, revenue growth continues to decelerate and some players are now signaling for a slowdown beginning next quarter. Inventory levels in the industrial end-market remain elevated, indicating more weakness to come for the broader semi market. Demand for renewables remains strong but it will not be enough to offset a correction in the broader market. We see further downside risk to 2023 expectations.
