Recently, with the international price of gold, copper and other precious metals continue to rise, the dollar, PCB factory labor shortage and serious situation, an informed source said that there are multiple hidden PCB operation this year. Always have the dollar's recent rise, the vast majority of the PCB plant in terms of export-oriented, revenue, profits will suffer.
In addition, the international price of gold, copper prices rose sharply in the fourth quarter of last year, has so far maintained files, associated PCB industry chain this year, private assessment of the price of converting back to the weak.
Gold at one time record highs, the PCB industry chain, the integrated circuit (IC) substrate plant and main applications are LCD panels, memory module PCB Factory, gold is relatively factories, affecting gross margins larger.
Copper Pan Gao direct stimulation of upstream raw materials PCB copper foil, copper clad laminate substrate (CCL) costs, copper was the biggest gain in a group, fear of the past year reached 5 percent increase, following the price hike in January, the February room to run, the largest amount of CCL works to reflect the cost, but also shifted downstream PCB factory, the overall PCB plants are expected to be affected.
