* Shipments and new orders are the totals for the period and are adjusted for trading-day and calendar-month variations

Due to the number of large semiconductor manufacturers choosing not to participate in this,
voluntary monthly survey, the Census Bureau cannot currently produce monthly estimates of semiconductor shipments, orders, or inventories.

? Aggregate estimates and percent changes exclude semiconductor industry data

* Due to the number of large semiconductor manufacturers choosing not to participate in this voluntary monthly survey, the Census Bureau cannot currently produce monthly
estimates of semiconductor shipments, orders, or inventories.
Note: Estimates of manufacturers’ shipments, inventories and orders are subject to survey error and revision. One major component of survey error is
nonsampling error, which includes errors of coverage, response, and nonreporting. Since the survey panel is not a probability sample, estimates of sampling
error cannot be calculated. Further details on survey design, methodology, and data limitations are contained in our most recent annual benchmark publication,
Current Industrial Reports: M3-1(01), "Manufacturers' Shipments, Inventories, and Orders: 1992-2001."
