In the first half of 2024, with the gradual destocking of major notebook manufacturers and the favorable conditions of slowing inflation, the forecast index of recent interest rate cuts in the United States has risen, if the market expects the US Federal Reserve to start cutting interest rates as soon as the first half of this year, it will help reduce the financing and borrowing costs of enterprises, increase the liquidity capital level, and the generational change of Microsoft's operating system, so as to promote the secure system upgrade of enterprise users, which is expected to drive the demand for laptops to replace the old with the new. As a result, TrendForce expects the demand for notebooks to improve quarter-on-quarter in 2024, with the global laptop market showing moderate growth, with shipments growing at an annual rate of about 3.6% to 172 million units.
