ASM Orders Beat Estimates on Artificial Intelligence Boom

ASM International NV, a Dutch firm specializing in advanced chipmaking tools, reported that its orders in the third quarter exceeded expectations due to increased demand fueled by the artificial intelligence (AI) industry. Orders rose by 30% to €815.3 million ($881 million), surpassing the average analyst estimate of €768 million. ASM's shares rose following the announcement. The company has been benefiting from the growing demand for its "gate-all-around" technology and has experienced increased orders from China. However, ASM expects weaker demand from China in the fourth quarter due to the ongoing pandemic and cyclical downturns in certain industries.

TSMC's first-quarter revenue surges 42%, slightly ahead of forecasts

TSMC, the leading contract chipmaker globally, reported a 42% increase in first-quarter revenue, reaching T$839.3 billion ($25.6 billion), slightly surpassing forecasts. This growth results from the artificial intelligence boom, offsetting the decline in pandemic-driven consumer electronics demand. Despite a $161 million loss from a January earthquake in Taiwan, the revenue aligns with TSMC's guidance. The company's shares, although initially impacted by U.S. tariff announcements, rose with a tariff pause, and full earnings will be revealed on April 17.

Google fails to ‘wow’ as AI bills mount

Alphabet, Google's parent company, reported strong Q2 results with robust advertising and cloud revenue. However, the results failed to excite investors. Overall revenue barely beat Wall Street projections, and YouTube advertising revenue was lower than expected. The company anticipates a more challenging second half of the year due to tougher comparisons and increased spending on artificial intelligence infrastructure. Despite cost-cutting measures, capital expenditures will continue to be high, with an estimated total of over $49 billion for the year. Google's attempts to make acquisitions and navigate through regulatory challenges have also hit roadblocks recently.

AI is having a 1995 moment

According to tech analyst Dan Ives, the artificial intelligence (AI) boom could be compared to the internet boom of the 1990s. He believes that Nvidia is at the forefront of this revolution, producing highly sought-after graphic processing units (GPUs) that power AI models. Companies like Salesforce, Adobe, and Oracle are driving the demand for Nvidia's AI chips. Despite the similarities with the dot-com bubble, Ives does not anticipate a similar crash in the tech industry. Nvidia's recent earnings report, which exceeded expectations, supports the continued growth of the AI market. Nvidia's CEO, Jensen Huang, expects AI to expand into various industries in the coming years.

Salesforce's third-quarter revenue beats on strong cloud demand

Salesforce beat expectations with its third-quarter revenue, leading to an 8% increase in its shares.
