The price of LCD TV panels continues to decline, which is of great significance for the promotion of LED backlight LCD TVs in October, but inventory is still a problem. This, in turn, is putting increasing pressure on panel suppliers to further reduce prices to reduce inventory.

The decline in LCD panel prices has had a significant impact on upstream panel producers. Panel maker Taiwan AUO issued a third-quarter profit warning on October 8. It said that due to the significant decline in panel prices, it will have a negative impact on gross profit. It is expected that the operating results in the third quarter of this year will be significantly lower than the second quarter.
