B[Semiconductor equipment sector fluctuated and rebounded, and Pioneer Electric rose by the daily limit] On September 17, the semiconductor equipment sector oscillated and rebounded in the afternoon, and Pioneer Electric rose by the daily limit. Microconductor Nano, Jinhaitong, Zhongke Feichai, Hengyunchang, Juzi Technology, etc. followed suit. On the news, according to Omdia's latest research, global semiconductor revenue exceeded US$425 billion in the second quarter of 2026, reaching a new high, with a quarter-on-quarter growth of 31.4%, a record high. B[Semiconductor equipment sector fluctuated and rebounded, Zhenbao Technology rose by more than 10%] On September 15th, the semiconductor equipment sector fluctuated and rebounded during the session, Zhenbao Technology rose by more than 10%, Frequency Quan Laser, Ultra-Pure Applied Materials, Sanjia Technology, Xinqi Micro Devices, Stech, etc. were among the top gainers. On the news, JPMorgan Chase released a report on the semiconductor SPE sector on September 11, significantly raising the growth forecast for the wafer fab equipment market, with a compound annual growth rate of 28% from 2025 to 2028. B[Yandong Micro: The two production lines will gradually reach breakeven as orders and yield rates increase] Zhang Jinsong, chairman of Yandong Micro, introduced that the planned monthly production capacity of Yandong Technology's 12-inch production line is 40,000 pieces. The current construction monthly production capacity has reached 40,000 pieces, with a yield rate of over 99%. In the future, as new products are accelerated to mass production, the output scale will steadily increase. The planned monthly production capacity of the 12-inch production line of the Nortel Integration Project is 50,000 pieces. The project will start construction in 2024. Engineering construction and process research and development are being advanced simultaneously and efficiently. Equipment has been moved in in the fourth quarter of 2025. It is still in the equipment debugging and production capacity ramping stage. It is expected to achieve mass production by the end of 2026 and reach full production in 2030. Since wafer foundry profitability is affected by multiple factors such as downstream multi-field demand, industry supply, and upstream costs, the company's two production lines are currently climbing steadily, and will gradually reach breakeven as orders and yield increase. B[Northern Huachuang President Dong Boyu: This year, wafer fab customers have begun to proactively initiate joint research with the company and promote collaborative innovation] "Science and Technology Innovation Board Daily" reported on the 1st that Dong Boyu, the president of Northern Huachuang, said in a speech at the 2026 CEPEA main forum that before 2025, the domestic semiconductor industry will be highly dependent on the industrial path and the iteration speed of the equipment link will be slow. But he also said, "Starting from 2026, we have deeply felt that wafer fab customers have begun to proactively initiate joint research with Northern Huachuang to promote collaborative innovation, return to the underlying technical logic, explore and define semiconductor equipment development, and move from early parameter benchmarking to real solution design. The proportion of forward design of product technology has increased significantly." (Guo Hui, reporter of Science and Technology Innovation Board Daily)
