Bernstein has conducted an analysis of the U.S. supply and demand balance in analog and discrete semiconductors, particularly in light of the potential introduction of Section 232 tariffs. The analysis focuses on the implications for major companies, including Texas Instruments, Analog Devices, Infineon Technologies and Renesas.

According to analysts led by David Dai, if the U.S. successfully brings more manufacturing of end applications back onshore, demand for these products may rise even further. However, currently, there isn’t a significant gap that would lead to a substantial increase in the capacity for analog and discrete manufacturing in the U.S.

Infineon and Renesas have the greatest risk of exposure to potential tariffs due to their relatively small production footprint in the U.S., while Texas Instruments and Analog Devices, being U.S.-based, appear to be well-positioned.

The chart below indicates that all the aforementioned stock prices are under the point forecast line of the DeepAR model, but they have potential room to rise if they adapt to the supply chain shifts.
