Global Telecom Dip in 2009 to Reverse in 2010, Climb for 4 Years

Analyst Simon Sherrington says global telecom capex is set to decline by about 0.7 percent in 2009 to around $297 billion, with steeper declines in mature markets such as the United States and Western Europe offset by investments in growth markets such as China and India, and regions such as Africa and the Middle East.

But the contraction should be short-lived. Sherrington forecasts an increase in global spending in 2010 and in the following three years, with the global capex total hitting $350 billion in 2012.
