CHIPS Act money is starting to move, but it's going to take years to get results.
The chip sector is undergoing a sector-wide correction as concerns grow around slowing demand for the products. Moor Insights and Strategy Founder and CEO Patrick Moorhead discusses why he believes markets are getting "ahead of [themselves] with some of the doom and gloom." Moorhead notes "there's still this insatiable need" for semiconductor products, saying consumers "just can't get enough." He notes that oftentimes the products require a pairing across companies, so the demand is still there. While uncertainty persists around headwinds such as inflation and geopolitical tensions, he says this has forced investors to adopt "a wait-and-see attitude" in regard to the sector. When asked if he believes markets are overreacting Moorehead tells Yahoo Finance: "I think this is just a cautious blow."
