$ASML Holding (ASML.US)$
- Q3 bookings of €2.63B (vs. est. of €5.39B)
- '25 sales at €30-35B (vs. est. of €35.94B)
What's going on?
1. "competitive foundry dynamic" aka $Intel (INTC.US)$ cut capex
2. "Limited capacity additions in memory" aka $Micron Technology (MU.US)$ & SK Hynix are converting existing overcapacity for HBM
3. This is on top of China restrictions (the only booming market for equipment)
People miss that semi-equipment follows its own cycle and is facing so...

Tough day: there’s been a sell-off; all categories of US stocks fell except for small-cap value; and for international stocks it was particularly brutal. I ended up this day in green due to a dumb beginner’s luck - I made a few contrarian bets, plus some intraday trading of WVO.
Lesson learned today: if one buys a short-term position, one has to monitor intraday dynamic closely. I foolishly made a few purchases today when ETFs were at intraday highest.

With the capabilities and computing power brought in by Blackwell, the arch...
