Texas Instruments Stocks Plunge into Nasdaq Market

Texas Instruments (TI) is the world's leading semiconductor supplier of digital signal processing and analog technology. It is also a semiconductor engine that promotes the continuous development of the Internet era. TI continues to advance the Internet era in large markets such as wireless and broadband access and emerging markets such as digital cameras and digital audio. Founded in 1947, Texas Instruments has a long history.

Since its listing, Texas Instruments has been trading stocks on the New York Stock Exchange, which is managed and operated by the NYSE Euronext Group. However, TI recently stated that in order to enhance the company’s visibility and acquire more advanced stock trading technology, it will cut costs. TI will transfer shares to the Nasdaq Global Select Market operated by the Nasdaq-OMX Group on January 1, 2012, and begin trading on the Nasdaq Exchange on January 3, 2012. TI believes that this move will play a catalytic role in the future development of the company.

However, the industry believes that the demand for Texas Instruments' products will decline. At present, due to the impact of the flood disaster in Thailand, TI's sales of human computer chips have declined. So far this year, Texas Instruments' share price has fallen by 14%.
