Time for AMD to outshine Nvidia? Read & decide.

I think it is undisputable that $NVIDIA Corp(NVDA)$ is currently the world’s leading chip maker in all fronts when it comes to artificial intelligence (AI). However, with the latest ban by the Biden administration on exporting technologically advanced AI chips to China and a list of other countries (of less business significance), its beginning to take its toll on Nvidia. Coupled with the lack of a possible “replacement chip” for the Chinese market, it is likely that Nvidia’s Q4 2023 earnings will be impacted when the chip maker next announces its results for end 2023. At the same time, other chip makers are making inroads in the AI-chip space that was initially dominated by Nvidia. By this, I am referring to

One Trigger To Push US Stock Higher

The December FOMC concluded last week with interest rate results in line with expectations, but the unexpected "dovish" turn by Fed Chairman Powell brought excitement to the market. At the same time, the Fed's dot plot showed that the median interest rate for 2024 indicates three rate cuts throughout the year, exceeding the previous market expectation of two cuts.This move, which aligns with market expectations rather than surprises them, has led to a frenzy in both the stock and bond markets.A step interest rate cutsThe slowdown in economic growth is the primary consideration for the Fed's interest rate cuts, and the current economic data does not show obvious signs of slowing down, and a "soft landing" is the consensus expectation. Therefore, the Fed's third-in-command has come out with

Broadcom might face ARCL similar prospect after this round of bubble pops

$Broadcom(AVGO)$ $Oracle(ORCL)$ has had explosive growth in the dotcom period and then took a long time to recover to its former high after the crash. I suspect Broadcom might face similar prospect after this round of bubble pops.Broadcom, CA, VMWare have one thing in common, which is accounting fraud at various times. So I don't doubt they have the tendency to manipulate books to show revenue growth in a rosier picture given the pressure of justifying share price appreciation. However, it is hard to perpetuate a fraud this long. Maybe they do have something in the networking business. Still, where does the growth come from?
