BANNOCKBURN, IL – The 90-day rolling average of EMS shipments rose modestly in May and continues to track ahead of historical baselines. According to IPC, the EMS shipments index rose 1 point sequentially, to 106. The indices are baselined to 2000. New orders for computer and electronic products in the US rebounded to about $28 billion in May, on a par with March and up about $1 billion from April. Rigid printed circuit board and semiconductor shipments both rose, yet remained well below their 2000 index levels.
