Sales growth in the semiconductor industry will slow down next year by roughly a third but still expand by nearly 7 percent, an analyst said Friday.
The sector's low stock-price correlation to oil volatility, along with buybacks and dividends supported by strong cash flow, will help provide ongoing attraction to investors, Bank of America's Vivek Arya said.

In a wide-ranging sector review, Arya maintained a generally bullish outlook but warned that 2015 returns from the group will be lower than the average of 26 percent seen during the past year.
Moreover, market volatility in the sector will increase, driven by factors like a slowdown at Apple, swings in the energy market and an increasing imbalance between U.S. and foreign growth rates.
Certain stocks will get driven higher by a continued consolidation trend among the roughly 140 companies in the industry, as interest rates remain low and investors demand increasing scale to justify hefty research and development costs.
