TrendForce’s latest research reveals that China's EV sales continued to grow throughout November 2024, driving demand for EV batteries. LFP battery prices remained stable, while prices for ternary batteries saw a slight decline.
TrendForce’s latest investigations found that the enterprise SSD market experienced significant growth in 3Q24, driven by robust demand from AI-related applications. Prices surged as suppliers struggled to keep pace with market needs, pushing overall industry revenue up by an impressive 28.6% QoQ. Demand for high-capacity models was especially strong, fueled by the arrival of NVIDIA’s H-series products and sustained orders for AI training servers. As a result, the total procurement volume for enterprise SSDs rose 15% compared to the previous quarter.
TrendForce’s latest findings show that global shipments of EV traction inverters reached 6.87 million units in the third quarter of 2024, representing a 7% QoQ increase, though the growth rate has slowed compared to the same period last year. Among the segments, PHEV traction inverter shipments grew by 16%, marking the highest growth across all powertrain types, though down from the 35% increase in the previous quarter.
TrendForce’s latest research finds that 3Q24 coincided with the peak season for smartphone sales. The launch of flagship models by major brands propelled global smartphone production to a QoQ increase of 7%, reaching approximately 310 million units and matching figures from the same period last year. However, production volumes for the quarter have not yet returned to pre-pandemic levels, signaling a continued lack of clear recovery momentum in the global consumer market.
According to TrendForce’s latest report, while the overall economic situation did not significantly improve in the third quarter of 2024, factors such as supply chain stocking driven by new smartphone and PC/notebook launches in the second half of the year, coupled with continued strong demand for AI server-related HPC, led to an improvement in overall wafer foundry capacity utilization compared to the second quarter.
