Charts: European EMS downturn continues

This year's third quarter is better than the second quarter; however, that was the case last year as well. In the first 9-month period we are still down approx. 25% on 2008. The conclusion is based on data from the EMS providers that publish their Q3 figures. Sweden is on par with the first 6 months, Finland is marginally better, but Norway significantly worse. In Belgium, only one of the two EMS companies publishes Q3 figures. Source: www.pildal.com Image Source: Optronic
