Porter’s Five Forces Analysis for the Global Chip Resistor Market

• Bargaining Power of Suppliers: The suppliers in the chip resistor market are moderate in number. For the large semiconductor companies, suppliers have little power - many semiconductor companies have hundreds of suppliers. This diffusion of risk over many companies allows the chip giant to keep the bargaining power of any one supplier to minimum. Thus, there is less threat from the suppliers. 
  Thus, the bargaining power of the suppliers is moderate.
• Bargaining Power of Buyers: Buyers have high bargaining power, mainly due to the huge number of chip resistor services that are offered in low prices. The buyers can hence choose the service that best fits their preferences. 
  Hence, the bargaining power of buyers is high.
• Threat of New Entrants: Startups entering this market are providing advanced chip resistor solutions to the customers. Moreover, the switching cost of buyers is not high. 
  As a result, the threat of the new entrants is high.
• Threat of Substitutes: Low-cost services and technological innovations are being offered in the market by companies attract customers. However, companies that are already in chip resistor offer huge discounts with regular free service. 
  Therefore, the threat of substitutes is low.
• Competitive Rivalry in the Market: The ventures operating in the global chip resistor are opting for various businesses deployment strategies to hold their position in the market. Several companies are launching their value-added services in the international market and strengthening the footprint worldwide.
