IDC Sees Ramifications of US Economic Slide on IT Markets in Asia/Pacific (including Japan)
Singapore and Hong Kong, April 07, 2008–Recurring news of further deterioration to the outlook of the US economy has raised concern over the potential impact on the stability of the IT Market in the Asia/Pacific including Japan (APJ) region. In a review of the most recent economic indicators, current IT forecasts, and the economic linkage of APJ and US economies, IDC has developed two scenarios of worsening US economic outlook for lead factors associated with IT expenditure. In the first scenario, IDC’s research depicts a moderate 1.7% and 0.9% erosion of its current forecasted APJ IT market growth for 2008 and 2009, respectfully, should the US conditions worsen. In dollar terms, this means US$4.8B and US$7.5B less market potential in 2008 and 2009.
