Semiconductor companies, especially those that sell heavily to China, have faced major headwinds this year. But investors are betting on a big payoff in 2020.
, experienced a sector sell-off at the end of 2018 but rebounded in 2019. The 5G network, using wireless technology that provides a huge leap in speed and connectivity, will benefit companies, according to analysts.-- up about 38% in 2019 -- has won big with new network roll outs, said Michael Walkley, senior equity analyst at Canaccord Genuity. He doesn't expect 5G to be any different.
Broadcom -- up about 13.5% in 2019 -- stock has failed to keep pace with its competitors because its acquisition of CA Technologies last year confused the market, but it was a wise business-decision in the long run. Retail investor Geoff Regan, who bought Micron about 18 months ago, isn't too concerned about its exposure to China.
Weak demand for chips will continue to weigh on the sector through the end of the year, according to analysts. Trade talks with China impact semiconductor's short-term volatility as well.

Five Two Dinnerware, Stoneware, Stackable, Chip and scratch resistant, Handmade unique feelHeads up! We're offering an extra-special launch deal: 20% off 12-piece dinnerware sets now through 9/25 11:59 EST (aka, one week only!). We’re bringing something special to the table: Five Two dinnerware and serveware, made to mix and match (and mingle with your existing pieces). It’s crafted in neutral-toned, chip-resistant stoneware with subtle texture sprinkled in—so no matter how you stack them, these pieces work together beautifully for everyday. And your brilliant opinions helped us get here—11,036 opinions, to be exact (we even invited some community members over to give us feedback in person!). The result: We’re dishing up the best of the best...and we did it together. Durable (yet stunning) stoneware: 85% of you wanted dishwasher-safe pieces, while 62% said, “Let us put these in the microwave, please.” We did both. The edges are also chip-resistant—so stack away. Mix & match designs: Mixing it up is never a bad thing—67% of you asked for it specifically—so our designs are extra-versatile. The neutral hue goes with everything, while the subtle textures (fluting, sunbursts) look great paired up or all on their own. Handmade touches: No two pieces are alike—we used a handmade mold for that one-of-a-kind look. Slightly irregular touches bring an organic feel without being too delicate. A semi-shiny glaze: The glaze is hand-applied—another special detail we love. We made it semi-shiny to help prevent scratches (and incidentally, it's what 66% of you said you preferred). Just the pieces you asked for: As with all our Five Two products, we’ve been listening to our community’s feedback. Nearly half of you asked for pieces you can pick and choose between—like serveware that coordinates with plates or bowls in various sizes—so you could create your own collections. We also threw in a few premade sets because…options!
