$Advanced Micro Devices(AMD)$$Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing(TSM)$$Apple(AAPL)$ and AMD benefit from each other. AAPL's deep pockets significantly fund new nodes at TSMC. First chips from a new node at TSMC are usually for the iPhone. Mobile chips are less demanding than CPUs and GPUs running in servers. So those mobile chips are great for initial production on a new node. Cutting edge node helps AAPL sell trendy iPhones. When everything is running smoothly TSMC can then refine the node further for higher power and performance needed by server chips. Volume of chips sold to AMD has a pretty long tail. This helps TSMC amortize the de
$SoFi Technologies Inc.(SOFI)$ Q3 is likely to easily beat the 18% growth rate. The key is any guide up from stronger loan demand with the start of rate cuts. Stock will continue to re-rate over the next several months if this report is good. I do own SoFI and am up 36%, but I'm playing with it's stock, I can care less how they do long-term.
$Amazon.com(AMZN)$A slowing economy could significantly impact discretionary spending, weakening Amazon’s e-commerce revenue, which still constitutes a major portion of its business. The company’s substantial reliance on digital advertising revenue (which grew 20% YoY) may be another vulnerability. In a downturn, advertising budgets are typically among the first expenses companies cut, potentially stalling this crucial growth engine. Furthermore, Amazon’s valuation metrics paint a mixed picture. While the forward P/E ratio of 40 may seem modest relative to its historical levels, this assumes continued robust growth in AWS and advertising segments. If AWS growth merely meets the low end of estimates (around 15%), Amazon’s
$SUPER MICRO COMPUTER INC(SMCI)$SMCI is the girl you date, not the girl you marry.My take is that this stock has at least one big or two smaller legs upward, but long term upward projections will stall. This is $Cisco(CSCO)$ circa 1999. I don't think in the next 3-5 years AI returns will justify the cost of these machines. Right now $Alphabet(GOOG)$$Alphabet(GOOGL)$$Meta Platforms, Inc.(META)$ are in the FOMO stage and don't want to be caught without the biggest and best machines. And at some point there will be enough of these machines in the marke
$NVIDIA Corp(NVDA)$The tech bubble was wild, with companies without any earnings trading at ridiculous multiples. It feels different this time around, especially with NVIDIA being the leader in AI and trading at about 35 times next year’s earnings. That doesn’t seem outlandish, considering the potential for growth. There’s a real business model and revenue stream backing it up now. Plus, with the increasing demand for AI and tech solutions, it feels like there’s a solid foundation.
$JD-SW(09618)$ I’ve noticed that JD’s stock price hasn’t dropped as much as everyone feared. It’s pretty surprising! A lot of my friends are scratching their heads, wondering if this means JD has successfully navigated through this crisis. Honestly, I think there might be some truth to that. First off, it seems like the company is doing something right, maintaining stability when many were expecting a meltdown. Maybe their business strategies are working, or perhaps they’ve managed to regain some investor confidence. I mean, the market can be unpredictable, and while we can’t get too ahead of ourselves, it’s definitely encouraging to see some resilience. It feels like JD has built a solid foundation, whi
$Marathon Digital Holdings Inc(MARA)$I’ve been keeping an eye on MARA, and while there isn’t a clear trend just yet, I can feel something brewing. It recently broke through those previous lows and is now testing that wick on the monthly chart. I really think this has the potential for a solid move upward if we get some monthly confirmation in November. Honestly, I’d be thrilled with just a weekly confirmation for October! It feels like we're on the brink of something exciting. If the momentum picks up, it could really turn things around.
$Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing(TSM)$TSMC’s numbers blew me away—over 50% gross margin and more than 40% net profit! And the craziest part? They’ve kept that up for years. That kind of performance is insane for a manufacturing company. It’s proof that when you’re at the top of your game in high-tech, the moat around your business is basically bulletproof.Their dominance in the semiconductor industry is next level. No wonder everyone from $Apple(AAPL)$ to $NVIDIA Corp(NVDA)$ relies on them. It’s almost like they’ve created this fortress around their business that’s hard for anyone to break through. I mean, how can competitors even com
$Coinbase Global, Inc.(COIN)$COIN starting a move upwards after breaking above the 50 week moving average, this is also a crypto related name, and will benefit from bitcoin's value increasing. BTC looks ready for a large move higher as it is just starting to break out of a beautiful multi month base. Every dip is a buy opportunity from now on.ImageImage
$Meta Platforms, Inc.(META)$Meta's been on an absolute tear this year, no doubt about it. Sure, some of it might be luck—timing always plays a role—but overall, it's been profitable. The stock has really held its ground, and we’ve seen new highs in October. Now, with Q3 earnings around the corner, I'm pretty optimistic. I think we might see Meta pull off a bit of a comeback, especially after a slight dip recently. They’ve been doubling down on AI, the metaverse, and advertising tech, which could boost results. If the numbers impress, we might see another surge. All in all, it feels like Meta’s still got plenty of room to grow.
