<p>Based on the latest quarterly earnings and forecasts of the top 5 global semiconductor wafer fab equipment (WFE) manufacturers, the sector is on track to grow by ~20% sequentially in 2020. This is a remarkable accomplishment considering the challenges these companies have faced during the year as a result of the global pandemic along with the US-China trade restrictions. Furthermore, assuming there are no surprises through the end of the year, 2020 will set an all time record high for annual WFE revenues.
