Bible 1Q23 – Autos: Semi cycle materializing?
Today, we are publishing the Autos 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.Further signs of auto demand weakness as some OEMs saw order intake slowing in the quarter. EV momentum in China decelerated driven by a weak macro and elimination of subsidies. Inventories across the value chain have increased further. Automotive semiconductor demand remained strong in the quarter with revenues ~90% above pre-pandemic levels, however we see initial signs of weakness going forward as some players call for a slowdown. This aligns with our view; we see the current level of spending as unsustainable and expect a cyclical downturn as demand weakens further.
