In the first quarter of 2024, NVIDIA secured the second position with a 19% increase in revenue compared to the previous quarter, largely driven by its strong presence in the AI market. Intel, on the other hand, experienced a 14% decline in revenue during the same period due to lower demand at its Intel, Altera, and Mobileye foundries.

Qualcomm and Broadcom, ranking fifth and sixth, also faced revenue declines in the single digits, attributed to underperformance in their core businesses.

The memory market proved to be a significant driver for companies like Hynix and Micron, while others struggled with weaker demand in key areas.
