Samsung topples Intel to become the world’s largest chipmaker. Intel is the second largest chip maker now. Recent QR announcements of both Samsung and Intel were amazing.
the world’s largest and second largest chip makers have been doing well recently. It's like the whole semiconductor industry has been doing well recently. Start buying semiconductor stocks now.
Autonomous vehicles will cause fundamental shifts across a number of established industry segments tied to automotive, opening up big opportunities for chips and tools.
The move to self-driving vehicles over the next decade or so will result in a massive restructuring of entire segments of the global economy that have evolved to create and support automobiles and the people who drive them.
The shift will create many new jobs-particularly for semiconductors and electronic systems-and conservatively it will eliminate hundreds of thousands of existing ones. It will reshape entire communities and ecosystems. Perhaps even more consequential to existing automotive companies, it has the potential to upend established companies and replace them with others, including some that have played only limited roles in the automotive market. https://semiengineering.com/giant-auto-industry-disruption-ahead/
i think once it goes above $1, it will attract more institutional investors... so after that it may blast to the moon...
there is also another stock call "AVI-TECH" doing similar stuff & recommended by RHB as a "jewel"...the price is rebounding..and dividend seemed good..the boss is buying back shares actively..
Shares of Broadcom Ltd. AVGO, -0.52% soared 6.2% in premarket trading Wednesday after the company delivered an earnings outlook that came in above expectations. The chip maker said in a release that it expected to report adjusted earnings per share of $5.10, up 40% from a year earlier, for its fiscal first quarter, which ends Feb. 4. Analysts surveyed by FactSet had been predicting adjusted earnings of $4.95 a share.
AMD (Advanced Micro Devices Inc.) shares rallied Wednesday after the chip maker showed strong growth in its computer and graphics business with a significant amount of that estimated to come from cryptocurrency-mining-related sales.
the Federal Reserve raised its inflation outlook and flagged "further gradual" interest rate hikes.
Wall Street gave up early gains on Wednesday to finish marginally higher after the Fed kept rates unchanged, but struck a more hawkish tone than expected, no longer saying it expected price growth to stay below 2 percent.
"Janet Yellen, made pretty much clear in her last meeting (as Fed Chair) that the economy warrants more rate hikes," said Naeem Aslam, chief market analyst at Think Markets.
Recent QR announcements of Sumsung, Intel and Apple were very impressive. Malaysian investors cannot affect global markets. It's wrong for malaysians to start selloff as the world is not affected by Malaysians. Malaysians will eventually follow the global trend.
This book is the result of the author's many years of experience and observation throughout his 26 years in the stockbroking industry. It was written for general public to learn to invest based on facts and not on fantasies or hearsay....
