  "I would assume the government will set up a new company first and then talk to those companies who want to join later," Nomura semiconductor analyst Rick Hsu said.

  In the short term, Rick Hsu, a semiconductor analyst at Nomura in Taipei, said the new venture won't have major impact on TSMC and UMC, which have larger economies of scale, advanced technology and a wide customer base.
  
  "I don't see any major impact until after 2010," Hsu said."The new company will only have a very small market share in the beginning, maybe 5 percent in the first year."
  
  However, Hsu said the new entrant could become a competitor in the longer term if it moves up the tech ladder and boosts its product portfolios.

  "Cutting capital spending will help the company at least in two ways," said Rick Hsu, an analyst at Nomura Securities.The initiative would help improve pricing power, while reduction in spending will give SMIC a high utilization rate."The company is likely to see an improved logic pricing trend next year, which should help to offset DRAM volatility," Hsu said.

  The first quarter could be bloody," said Rick Hsu, chip analyst at Nomura Securities in Taipei.DRAM prices are rising now because PC makers are filling PCs with 2GB of DRAM per system, he said.
  
  Vista requires more DRAM than older Windows products, such as XP.A buying spree of PCs equipped with Vista would go a long way to fix the current DRAM glut.But so far, the OS hasn't been as popular as hoped, and DRAM price increases in the third quarter will be met by output from several new memory chip factories in the fourth quarter.
  
  The new output should cap price gains, said Hsu.

  "Taiwanese chip makers will be able to build a foothold in China now," said Rick Hsu, chip analyst at Nomura Securities in Taipei.So far, only Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing (TSMC) and ProMOS Technologies have built China plants.New regulations will likely allow them to upgrade their production lines to 130-nanometer or 110-nanometer technology in the near term, which will enable them to grab more business, said Hsu.
  
  United Microelectronics (UMC) will likely be able to work more closely with China's He Jian Technology, a contract chip maker UMC executives advised during its start-up phase.He Jian has tried to pay UMC a 15 percent stake, but Taiwanese regulations have made the transaction difficult.Hsu believes UMC will be able to take this stake in He Jian once Ma is in office.
