Advanced Micro Devices $AMD is a global manufacturer of semiconductor components, primarily focused on the development of high-performance processors and graphics cards. In recent years, the company has gained significant market share with its high-end products such as theRyzen series of processors and Radeon graphics cards . In this way ,... Read more
I appreciate that it says how Intel is just trying to narrow the gap with TSM. 18A is supposed to be comparable to N3P and Intel will have nothing to respond to N2 planned for 2025. Betting on INTC now is a pretty risky choice in my opinion, that's why I prefer to stick to the current cutting edge, which is hardly something everyone will run away from just because someone else builds fabs and recruits a team of marketers. The idea that competitors in the form of AMD or NVIDIA will manufacture at INTC is hard to believe, in the same way Apple will find it hard to think about handing over their know how to someone who makes their own chips.
So what I've been watching the last couple of years, TSMC despite being the leader is still growing revenues and profits nicely because they have a lot of pricing power due to their manufacturing technology. Intel adopted EUV pretty late, probably will have much worse yields than TSM and probably Samsung, i.e. smaller margins (+large CAPEX). Shareholders are looking at a paltry dividend that just won't get to the original values and capital appreciation is also very uncertain.
🌟 Onsemi's big investment in the Czech Republic: a game changer for the semiconductor industry!
US chip manufacturing giant Onsemiconductor $ON has announced a historic investment of up to $2 billion in a Czech semiconductor manufacturing plant. This project represents the largest single foreign direct investment in our country and is a significant step towards strengthening Eu... Read more
Personally I see good future for $TSM . It's a great company, already got about 50% profit on the shares I own. I am however a little worried about the situation with China invading Taiwan as they declared doing so before 2030. This could have a big negatice impact on the company. Taking this into consideration I am still holding some shares and if we have a little ''sale'' on shares, I will consider buying more!
🚀 Arm Holdings is heading for a revolution with AI chips! 🧠

Great news! Definitely good to follow this company. Now it's about not being too late in 2025. Or it like probably never will be, but that's how AI is already being addressed a lot and I believe it will be somewhere else again in a year. Anyway Arm is on my watchlist. 😊

On Monday , theU.S. governmentannounced that it will contribute $1.5 billion to GlobalFoundries $GFS under the Chip Act, boosting domestic manufacturing. Intel $INTC also finds itself in the game with possible subsidies in excess of $10 billion! 💰
I'm quite curious how they'll manage to pull off that TSM lead. I've been reading some analysis on the new machines from ASML and it looks like they're more expensive to produce than the ones TSM is currently using and they can't manage to produce everything they have planned for 2030. Even if Intel delivers what they've been promising for a few years now, it's quite possible they'll make less profit on it than TSM. Factoring in the cost of human labor in Taiwan, they're not going to have an easy time getting to their original margins.
I've sold Intel and Micron and only hold TSM with ASML in semis anymore.
We have an interesting week ahead of us full of opportunities and important numbers. 📊🌐

Have a great Sunday evening, investors. I've been eyeing $TSM stock for a long time and I really like it, just still not 100% sure about the price. The stock still looks a bit expensive to me. I'd be buying as high as $80. What's your take on this company and what price would you like to buy at?
hello friend, fellow investor! I've had my eye on $TSM as well, and it's a fantastic company. While the current price might seem a tad high, TSM's strong fundamentals and growth potential make it a worthwhile long-term investment. I'd consider it in the mid-$80s, but timing the market can be tricky. What matters most is the company's performance over time.
The markets are showing us a strong sell-off to end the week with big losses in the major stock indices, with the US 500 index down nearly 3% and the Nasdaq 100 down 3.6% in just the last two days! These declines could reveal some nice buying opportunities again next week.

What do you think of yesterday's drop in $TSM stock? Are you buying? There may have been better buying this year, but 5% down is not a bad thing. I saw that even Cathie Wood and Ark Invest immediately bought 28,909 shares of Taiwan Semiconductor.
So today the results of 2 very interesting companies - $PM and $TSM. Personally, I'm more interested in the dividend legend, but I'd like to see how the chips are doing too. What do you expect from the companies? And do you have a portfolio of any of them?
I have $TSM which I was counting on a drop, but I'm holding long and the outlook for the next quarters looks promising. I don't have $PM, I've been buying $BTI this week.
ASML is indispensable for all chipmakers, unfortunately it is not so visible on the stock. If it will level out I don't know, I guess they need to start talking about AI 😂
As others write - we don't know what will happen tomorrow, in a year, in 5 years. But the numbers are beautiful and the potential is huge. There is a risk/reward to consider here.
