Chip Development and AI:

Nvidia: A leader in AI chip development, Nvidia’s GPUs are widely adopted for AI training and inference. They focus on creating powerful and efficient chips for AI workloads.

Huawei: Huawei has been rapidly expanding its AI chip portfolio. Their Ascend series of chips competes with Nvidia’s offerings. Huawei’s flagship product, the 910B chip, directly rivals Nvidia’s A100 chip.

UlarSawa Haiyoh what is usd49bil revenue. Baru rmb 354.61bil only. Huawei 2023 revenue double of Nvidia leh. Kesian. Haiyoh. Correct?

Huawei's overall performance in 2023 was "in line" with forecasts, Ken Hu, Huawei's rotating chairman said on Friday, adding that the company has managed to grow despite "one challenge after another."

For the full year 2023, the company's revenue grew 9.6% to 704.2 billion yuan, up from 642.33 billion yuan in 2022. Its spending on research and development hit another historic high of 164.7 billion yuan, equivalent to around 23.4% of its total revenue. It has spent a total of 1.11 trillion yuan on R&D over the past decade.

Yes Ular my Bro,

But there is a differences between Huawei and Nvidia in terms of their business models:

Industry Focus:

Nvidia: Primarily known for its expertise in graphics processing units (GPUs), Nvidia has a strong presence in the gaming, data center, and AI markets. Their GPUs are widely used for high-performance computing, deep learning, and scientific simulations.

Huawei: A diversified technology company, Huawei operates in various domains, including telecommunications, networking equipment, smartphones, and cloud services. While they also have AI ambitions, their business extends beyond chips.

Meanwhile, Mabel Nvidia is very close to overtaking Intel, after declaring $49 billion of topline revenue for 2023. This is more than double its 2022 revenue ($21 billion), increasing its share of industry revenues to 9%. Nvidia’s meteoric rise has gotten a huge thumbs-up from investors. It became a trillion dollar stock last year, and broke the single-day gain record for market capitalization this year.

Other chipmakers haven’t been as successful. Out of the top 20 semiconductor companies by revenue, 12 did not match their 2022 revenues, including big names like Intel, Samsung, and AMD.

As computers invade nearly every sphere of life, so too have the chips that power them, raising the revenues of the businesses dedicated to designing them. But how did various chipmakers measure against each other last year?

We rank the biggest semiconductor companies by their percentage share of the industry’s revenues in 2023, using data from Omdia research. Market leader and industry-defining veteran Intel still holds the crown for the most revenue in the sector, crossing $50 billion in 2023, or 10% of the broader industry’s topline. All is not well at Intel, however, with the company’s stock price down over 20% year-to-date after it revealed billion-dollar losses in its foundry business.

Did you know that some computer chips are now retailing for the price of a new BMW?

#LimPek Mabel Nvidia like waterfall tonight.
NVIDIA Corp
NASDAQ: NVDA
839.49 USD −31.84 (3.65%)today
09/04/2024 10:34 PM

Yo Mr Lim,

Yes Nvidia’s shares are off 10% from their most recent all-time closing high of more than $950 apiece. The stock closed at a price of $853.54 yesterday, down 2% for the session.

Tonight it climbs 2 % back to USD 870. Mabel bought Nvidia when it was USD 400+, locked some profits at USD 900+...while the remaining waiting to sell when it breaks the USD 1000 barrier like what happened to Mabel’s ASML last month.

Nvidia has several compelling reasons that make it an attractive investment:

AI Chip Dominance: Nvidia is a leader in the field of artificial intelligence (AI) chips. Its graphics processing unit (GPU) chips have emerged as the best type for accelerating AI workloads in data centers. Estimates suggest that Nvidia holds approximately 90% of the data center AI GPU chip market and about 80% of the entire data center AI chip market, including custom AI processing chips developed by larger tech companies. The company’s data center business has been growing robustly, and its AI chip dominance is a key catalyst for its stock’s impressive performance.

Strong Financial Results: Nvidia’s revenue and adjusted earnings per share (EPS) have grown at a torrid triple-digit percentage pace for three consecutive quarters. In the fiscal first quarter of 2024, Nvidia stock surged 82.5%, making it the second-best performer on the S&P 500 index. The company’s powerful financial results and its position in the AI chip market contribute to its impressive stock performance.

These factors, along with Nvidia’s continuous innovation and market leadership, make it an appealing investment to hold.

To Our Success !

Brent crude futures have established a firm footing over the $90 per barrel mark and not even a brief opening for a potential ceasefire in Gaza managed to pull it lower. Mexico cutting oil exports will ensure bullish sentiment continues to build in the coming weeks, with further directionality set by the US and Chinese inflation numbers this week, potentially even paving the way for a climb closer to $95 per barrel.

https://www.thestreet.com/investing/analyst-revises-nvidia-stock-price-target-on-china-update

Analysts see 'signs of life in China

It's an important move for Nvidia, considering that the Asia-Pacific region is the world's largest market for semiconductors, accounting for more than half of the global market share. The area is also home to some of the world's largest chipmakers.

China is the world’s largest semiconductor market, representing 31.4% of worldwide final sales or $180 billion out of $574 billion in 2022, Citigroup said.

dragon328 Share price movements everyday is hard to predict and explain, as there are too many parties with different interests.

For example, we have another call warrant expiring on 19 April, which is issued by AffinHwang. Remember Affin dumped big volumes of mother shares on 8th Mar when its another call warrant expired. The big dump volume was adsorbed and share price recovered within a week. Just beware of another potential move by the IB who may try to depress the mother share price until next Friday.

Meanwhile, aided by a whirlwind of bullish news, Brent prices surpassed the $90 per barrel threshold and surged past the $91 per barrel mark on Friday morning. The anticipation of Iran’s retaliatory strike on Israel, a developing Mexico export shortage, and the continuation of OPEC+ cuts have boosted sentiment in the oil market recently. On the other hand, the potential of the Fed not cutting interest rates this year could pour some cold water on the oil price rally.

Haha Thank you for the Invitation paktua73…

Lately Mabel has received lots of invitation to tango with IPO. IPO can be attractive and one of them which Mabel has invested was Greatech. Greatech has given Mabel more than 700% ROI over a period of 3 years.

Zantat Holdings Bhd was recently listed company on the ACE Market of Bursa Malaysia, specializes in calcium carbonate production.

IPO Debut: On March 27, 2024, Zantat made a strong debut by opening at 40 sen per share, which was 60% higher than its initial public offering (IPO) price of 25 sen per share. The opening volume of the new counter was 6.3 million shares.

Business Focus: Zantat is primarily engaged in the production of calcium carbonate. This compound finds applications in various industries, including plastics, rubber, PVC pipes, cables, paints, coatings, ceramics, and more.

Market Valuation: Based on its net profit of RM6.77 million and basic earnings per share of three sen for the financial year ended December 31, 2023, at 40 sen per share, Zantat is now valued at approximately 13 times its price-earnings ratio.

Mabel will pass this one paktua73 as the name of the company oledi makes Mabel blush pink all over …hihihi…

Besides, the business itself is not in line with Mabel’s Business Interest.

All the best to you and Zantat !

#dragon328 @Mabel, this Walll Street fair value for YTLP is derived by AI using inputs from 10 analysts. If you check the methodology and data inputs to the AI, you will see that it relied on just one analyst's input for projected cashflow for 2027 to extrapolate further to 2030 and to calculate the terminal value. As this particular analyst gave a very low projected cashflow figure for 2027 (something like RM2.1b for 2027 compared to RM2.7-3.0b for 2025-2026 based on more data inputs), so the AI thought that the earnings would gradually go down over the years from 2026. This to me sounds like the narrative of some local analysts like Maybank.

Apparently this particular analyst was able to influence the valuation of YTLP by submitting a low cashflow projection figure for 2027 to Wall Street.

So just take it as a pinch of salt.

Trading at 6.1% below our estimate of its fair value
Earnings grew by 86.6% over the past year
Trading at good value compared to peers and industry

RISK ANALYSIS
Debt is not well covered by operating cash flow
Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 5.7% per year for the next 3 years
Volatile share price over the past 3 months

Price target increased by 14% to RM4.23
Up from RM3.72, the current price target is an average from 10 analysts.
New target price is 5.1% above last closing price of RM4.02.
Stock is up 447% over the past year.
The company is forecast to post earnings per share of RM0.36 for next year compared to RM0.25 last year.

Based on dragon comments looks like it debt now covered at subsidiary level..

Meow Meow Meow

#dragon328 Let me update on YTL Power cashflows and net cash situation based on latest Q2 FY2024 results:

Operating cashflows before working capital changes and capex amounted to RM2.74 billion for the 6 months ended 31 Dec 2023, annualised to RM5.5 billion. Among this, PowerSeraya will contribute over RM3.0 billion of operating cashflows a year to YTL Power, others are steady dividends from Jawa Power and Jordan Power plus shareholders' loan interest income.

Capex for the 6 months amounted to RM1.6 billion, meaning that YTLP had free cashflows of RM1.4 billion for 6 mths, annualised to RM2.8 billion a year.

As of 31 Dec 2023, YTLP had gross cash of RM9.6 billion and total borrowings of RM31.4 billion, or net debt of RM21.8 billion.

I estimate that almost all of the debts are sitting at the various subsidiary level:
Wessex - GBP3.1b or RM18.6b
PowerSeraya - SGD1.0b or RM3.5b
Jordan - USD1.5b or RM7.0b
Yes - RM1.0b
YTL Comms/data centre - RM1.3b

Total debts at subsidiaries RM31.4bn

This means that at the holding company level, YTL Power actually has zero debt. The RM9.6b gross cash at the balance sheet, the bulk of which is sitting at subsidiary level too for general working capital purposes and for future capex plans. I estimate that at the holding company level, there is a minimum of RM2.0 billion net cash that YTL Power can deploy for future M&A and new project capex.

So to some parties claiming of high debts at YTL Power, please study the balance sheet again.

Why are they not saying high debts at Tenaga?? FYI, Tenaga had total RM61 billion of debts and gross cash of RM19.3b as of 31 Dec 2023. Tenaga is required to spend a total of RM51b for normal grid capex over next 5 years to 2030 and additional RM35b for NETX related capex by 2030, so a total of RM86 billion of capex to be spent over next 5-6 years. Where is it going to get the money from? By increasing the electricity bills for everyone here? BY getting bailout grant from the government? from issuing more bonds? by getting more bank borrowings? Please think again and talk with facts and figures.

The transaction places Ekuinas as one of the few investors within the O&G sector to successfully realise its investment, Syed Yasir Arafat added.

“With the investor’s track record and financial stability in the O&G industry, we consider the transaction to be a win-win opportunity, mutually beneficial for both Ekuinas and Icon Offshore shareholders.

“This strategic divestiture is certainly a reflection of our commitment to maximise shareholder value and one that leaves Icon Offshore in capable hands to chart their next level of growth,” he added.

Icon Offshore has established itself as an OSV provider in Malaysia and Southeast Asia that primarily serves the Malaysian and Bruneian coasts with a total of 19 active OSVs.

Following the transaction, Ekuinas' shareholding in Icon Offshore is set to reduce to about 5.83%.

In a separate statement, Ekuinas chief executive officer Syed Yasir Arafat Syed Abd Kadir said that the private equity firm has made a cumulative realised gain of over RM500 million, derived throughout Ekuinas’ holding period of more than 10 years.

Following the 50.2% acquisition, Lim through Liannex also extended its offer to acquire the remaining shares it does not own, consisting of a cash offer of 63.5 sen for a 49.8% stake in Icon Offshore and 100% of its warrants or 130.90 million warrants for 0.1 sen.

The 63.5 sen offer price represents a discount of 13% to Icon Offshore’s closing price of 73 sen on Tuesday. Its 0.1 sen offer price for warrants showed a massive discount of over 99% from its warrants' closing price of 17.5 sen on the same day.
