Who Really Wins In the Legal Battle Between Arm & Qualcomm? Maybe Not Who You Think

Cadence Design Systems (CDNS) earnings were good, as per usual. Nothing we felt like we needed to specifically address. But there were some management comments made regarding an expanded relationship between Cadence and processor technology licensor and IP leader Arm Holdings (ARM). It seemed pertinent given Arm and Qualcomm‘s (QCOM) tit-for-tat legal battle. The court […]
Impinj PI Stock – Up 200% In A Year

We wanted to do a one-year-later review on Impinj (PI), but October came and went, and we ran out of time.

Aehr Test Systems (AEHR) Stock – More Patience Required From Investors

With Q1 fiscal 2025 earnings in hand (for the three months ended in August 2024), investors are feeling a bit more optimistic about Aehr Test Systems (AEHR) stock once again.

We’re coming up on the six-month-anniversary of Astera Labs’ (ALAB) initial public offering (which occurred in March 2024, if you’re reading/watching this installment later than September).

Taiwan Semiconductor Stock TSMC Buys A New LCD Screen Fab – For AI Chip Packaging? Top Long-Term Stock Now?

August has been a busy month for the world’s largest and most advanced foundry, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing (TSM).

New Amazon Chips Are Coming – Are They “Nvidia Killers?”

Amazon (AMZN) exceeded expectations in Q2 2024. It once again proved that after amassing all that revenue last decade, it can still be a winning stock by now shifting to profit margin growth.
