ASML's 4Q orders triple in sign of semiconductor industry revival.

Jan 24): ASML Holding NV orders more than tripled last quarter from the previous three months, in a sign that the semiconductor industry is resurgent.

Order bookings rose to a record €9.19 billion (RM47.26 billion) in the fourth quarter (4Q) from €2.6 billion in July to September, driven by demand for its most sophisticated machines, Europe’s most valuable technology company said in a statement on Wednesday.
ASML is the only company that produces equipment needed to make the most sophisticated semiconductors, and demand for its products is a bellwether for the industry’s health. Record orders for its top-of-the-line extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography machines show optimism among the biggest customers for the technology, including Intel Corp, Samsung Electronics Co and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co (TSMC).
Artificial intelligence (AI), which requires massive amounts of computing power, is going to be a “big driver for our business and the business of our customers,” chief executive officer Peter Wennink said in an interview on Bloomberg TV.

Public Investment Bank maintains ‘overweight’ call for tech sector on upbeat outlook

Public Investment Bank Bhd (PIVB) has maintained an "overweight" call on the technology sector, following various upbeat outlook reports for global wafer capacity, semiconductor sales, equipment orders and personal computer (PC) sales.
In a note, the research bank said it is increasingly confident that the global technology downcycle has bottomed out.
"Malaysian players have started seeing the spillover effects from the intensifying United States (US)-China trade sanctions, as more technology-related investments are pouring into Malaysia, while some Chinese players are considering passing some chip-packaging orders to Malaysian peers.

PIVB noted that in a bid to diversify the supply chain and hedge risks against intensifying US chip export and chip-making equipment controls, a growing number of Chinese semiconductor design companies are tapping on Malaysia’s advanced chip-packaging services to assemble a type of graphic processing unit (GPU) that can be used in AI training.

Nvidia Corp. surged in early trading after delivering another eye-popping sales forecast, adding fresh momentum to a stock rally that already made it the world’s most valuable chipmaker.

The outlook extends a streak of Nvidia shattering expectations, thanks to insatiable demand for its artificial intelligence accelerators — highly prized chips that crunch data for AI models. The technology has helped power a proliferation of chatbots and other generative AI services, which can create text and graphics based on simple prompts.

“Accelerated computing and generative AI have hit the tipping point,” Chief Executive Officer Jensen Huang said in the statement. “Demand is surging worldwide across companies, industries and nations.”

Our TP is pegged to 33x FY25F P/E (at +0.5SD from the 5-year mean) and includes a 2% premium, based on its ESG score of 3.1. We are optimistic about Pentamaster Corp's near-term earnings potential, driven by heightened demand in the factory automation solutions (FAS) segment and the recovery in the semiconductor space in the early upcycle, which should boost its automated test equipment (ATE) unit.

Intel and LG bypass Vietnam for billion-dollar projects: Analyzing the reasons
Foreign corporations such as Samsung, Intel, and LG have surveyed Vietnam for potential investment but ultimately decided to invest their billion-dollar projects in other countries.

Notable cases include LG Chemical, which proposed a battery production project requesting 30% cost support from Vietnam but later moved to Indonesia. Intel proposed a $3.3 billion chip production project, asking for 15% cash support, but ultimately chose Poland. Austrian semiconductor company AT&S also surveyed Vietnam but decided on Malaysia due to unmet support requirements and a lack of available high-tech labor.
