Investments in new fab construction are also nearing a record with a fourth consecutive year of growth predicted and capital outlays next year approaching $17 billion.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:.0001pt\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:.0001pt\"><span style=\"line-height:normal\"><span style=\"font-size:12.0pt\">Investments for fab technology and product upgrades, as well as for additional capacity, will grow as the emergence of numerous new fabs significantly increases equipment demand, the forecast shows. The World Fab Forecast Report currently tracks 78 new fabs and lines that have or will start construction between 2017 and 2020 (with various probabilities), and will eventually require more than $220 billion in fab equipment.&nbsp; Construction spending for these fabs and lines is expected to reach $53 billion during this period.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:.0001pt\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:.0001pt\"><span style=\"line-height:normal\"><span style=\"font-size:12.0pt\">Korea is projected to lead other regions in fab equipment investments with $63 billion, $1 billion more than second-place China. Taiwan is expected to claim the third spot at $40 billon, followed by Japan at $22 billion and the Americas at $15 billion. Europe and Southeast Asia will share sixth place, with investments totaling $8 billion each. Fully 60 percent of these fabs will serve the Memory sector (the lion\u2019s share will be 3D NAND), and a third will go to Foundry.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:.0001pt\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:.0001pt\"><span style=\"line-height:normal\"><span style=\"font-size:12.0pt\">While the $220 billion estimate is based on current insights of known and announced fab plans, total spending could exceed this level as many companies continue to announce plans for new fabs. Since the last quarterly publication of the report, 18 new records \u2013 all new fabs \u2013 have been added to the forecast.
