The world is looking for this new one COVID-19, which affects both people and economics and is clearly not planning to leave the puppies in their head. Although there were rumors of how it would affect certain markets, they reacted in a completely different way to several categories.
For example, RAM memories due to increased stock will have no problem dealing with the Coronavirus problem and the price increase may be lower than expected or be zero for a few months.
But the guard market is completely different, and it's already suffering for the first time.
The price of monitors will go up, production will fall 20%
When we talk about monitors and specifically their panels (a basic logical piece) there is a city that maintains large production lines for this. Unfortunately for the industry, this city is Wuhan, a focal point and a landmark for all this new outbreak Coronavirus COVID-19.
As expected, all the factories in the city closed for about a month and you still haven't found work. The situation is so important that there is no notice of resumption of work until at least 15 days according to local reports, in which case production can gradually increase in anticipation of new cases or the return of other workers, says closer monitoring of each case.
World production of th is virus will fall 20% in total
Production will return 5 or 10% in March
Due to regulatory measures, China and especially Wuhan will not see delivery returned until at least April or even May, when authorities say the idea will be released in the middle 5 and 10% limit of a standard product.
However, there is no analysis of how this fall in production will affect the price of monitors, perhaps too early to take stock, but all analysts agree that the price will go up by a good percentage, making this 2020 one of the worst years to get a guard.
Therefore, users who think buying one may be an important time to do so, as there are no signs of returning the order and speed of the industry until the end of summer, as long as there is no further infection or relapse.
Uncertainty is high and forecasts may fail, because we do not know how it will affect 80% of the remaining product, because many countries are seeing how the virus never stops spreading and the measures may be equal or stronger than the one taken by China.
