Then demand for semiconductors slumped, and Infineon hit a slick of red ink as losses mounted over the next two years. The company's share price has fallen more than 90% to around €7. That boom and bust story - minus the racing car - is true for companies across the semiconductor industry, which has been mired in the worst economic slump in its history.
