TSMC reported record earnings for their quarter ended March and made some comments regarding CoWoS packaging-a positive. CEO C.C. Wei stated that CoWoS demand remains extremely strong. He noted that TSMC is working diligently to double its CoWoS capacity in 2025 to meet customer demand, but supply is still expected to fall short of demand. Wei expressed optimism about achieving a better supply-demand balance by 2026. Takeaway-no change to the plan and demand supply balance still shows constraint. Targeted capacity is 80k wafers per month by end of 2025 and 125K by end of 2026. Nvidia has secured 70% of total output We know that 1 wafer yields 16 good chips.

We expect around 800k chips being available to ship in Q1(ending April 25) up from around 250k in the previous Q(Q4)

Our main Pharma holding is Vertex. They have majority manufacturing presence in Boston, Massachusetts, where they use a cutting-edge continuous manufacturing facility for cystic fibrosis drugs like Trikafta. Their golden goose.

It looks like another nosedive day again today. Still, we've had a few of those recently and things seem to move back up again. Shame they don't move up as quickly as they move down, but I guess that's the way that markets work.

Here is a complete list of ALL notable Robotics players. See the common thread? [image: 1744622289650-screenshot-2025-04-14-at-10.15.51.png]

SK hynix raises its 2025 CAPEX from $15 billion to $19 billion. SK Hynix has decided to increase its planned CAPEX this year by 30% due to the surge in demand for high-bandwidth memory (HBM), which was already high. The chipmaker initially planned to spend 22 trillion won this year in expanding its facilities but this has been upped to 29 trillion won, sources said. The decision was recently finalised and SK Hynix has also sent memos to suppliers to deliver the equipment to the M15X fab in Chungju by October, two months faster than initially planned. These moves are all responses from its customers requesting SK Hynix deliver more HBM chips faster. The company’s main customer is Nvidia, which is using HBM with its AI accelerators. The GPU giant is requesting SK Hynix deliver HBM faster than planned. SK Hynix will also be supplying HBMs to Broadcom starting this year. We are reading the room, folks. Demand is off the hook and I would speculate, supply is also improving. Whilst the market is distracted by and shunning everything due to tariffs speculation, these businesses are clearly articulating a shift.

Hi D, Netflix is set to drop its Q1 2025 earnings after the market shuts on 17 April. Analysts expect earnings per share (EPS) will hit $5.74, up 8.7% from $5.28 last year, with revenue expected at $10.54 billion, a 12.5% jump year-on-year. That’s pretty close to Netflix’s own forecast of $10.46 billion in revenue and an operating margin of 28.2%. They’ve got a history of smashing EPS forecasts, beating expectations in all four of the last reported quarters, like Q4 2024 when they pulled off $4.27 against $4.20 expected. That said, it's hard to know but their numbers should be solid. Everyone’s eyeing their ad-supported memberships, which made up 55% of sign-ups in ad markets last quarter, and their content line-up, with several content hits. They won’t disclose subscriber numbers anymore, focusing on revenue and margins instead.
