As the craze of earnings season draws to a close, here’s a look back at some of the most exciting (and some less so) results from Q3. Today, we are looking at semiconductor manufacturing stocks, starting with Marvell Technology (NASDAQ:MRVL).
The global semiconductor market experienced a seismic shift on January 15, 2026, as Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (NYSE:TSM) released a fourth-quarter earnings report that shattered even the most optimistic analyst projections. The results, characterized by record-breaking revenue and a massive upward revision in capital spending, sent an unmistakable signal
The dawn of 2026 marks a pivotal turning point in the artificial intelligence arms race. For years, the industry was defined by a desperate scramble for high-end GPUs, but the narrative has shifted from procurement to production. Today, the world’s largest hyperscalers—Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ: GOOGL), Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ: AMZN), Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ: MSFT), and Meta [...]
As artificial intelligence models grow from billions to trillions of parameters, the physical infrastructure supporting them has hit a "power wall." Traditional copper interconnects and pluggable optical modules, which have served as the backbone of data centers for decades, are no longer able to keep pace with the massive bandwidth demands and extreme energy requirements [...]
The artificial intelligence industry is currently undergoing its most significant structural shift since the "Attention is All You Need" paper, driven by what analysts have dubbed the "DeepSeek Effect." This phenomenon, sparked by the release of DeepSeek-V3 and the reasoning-optimized DeepSeek-R1 in early 2025, has fundamentally shattered the "brute force" scaling laws that defined the [...]
The semiconductor sector has entered 2026 with a familiar sense of high-stakes volatility, and no stock is currently sparking more debate than Broadcom Inc. (NASDAQ: AVGO). After a blistering run through 2025, the stock faced a sharp correction in late December following a "margin warning" that sent jitters through the
As of January 13, 2026, the artificial intelligence industry has reached a pivotal physical milestone. After years of grappling with the "interconnect wall"—the physical limit where traditional copper wiring can no longer keep up with the data demands of massive AI models—the shift from electrons to photons has officially gone mainstream. The deployment of Silicon [...]
The artificial intelligence industry has officially entered the era of light-speed computing. At the conclusion of CES 2026, it has become clear that the "Copper Wall"—the physical limit where traditional electrical wiring can no longer transport data between chips without melting under its own heat or losing signal integrity—has finally been breached. The solution, long-promised [...]
The cryptocurrency market is no stranger to volatility, but the "DeepSeek Effect" of January 2025 stands as a watershed moment that fundamentally decoupled "hype" from "utility" in the AI-crypto sector. On Monday, January 27, 2025, a massive sell-off in risk assets—triggered by a breakthrough in AI efficiency from the Chinese startup DeepSeek—erased over $300 billion [...]
As of January 2026, the artificial intelligence industry has reached a pivotal architectural milestone dubbed the "Transition to the Era of Light." For decades, the movement of data between chips relied on copper wiring, but as AI models scaled to trillions of parameters, the industry hit a physical limit known as the "Copper Wall." At [...]
MENLO PARK, CA — As of January 12, 2026, the artificial intelligence industry has reached a pivotal inflection point. For years, the story of AI was synonymous with the meteoric rise of one company’s hardware. However, the dawn of 2026 marks the definitive end of the general-purpose GPU monopoly. In a coordinated yet competitive surge, [...]
