Looks like they need to save money and increase efficiency in every way to stay competitive - the way Samsung did to get ahead. They should start by generating revenue on their used equipment with a company like fabsurplus.com. See our website for used equipment trade at www.fabsurplus.com

The investment in foundry business is huge. UMC must have enough contracts on hand to justify an investment this big. Nonetheless, I always wonder what the ROI is like.
