Semiconductors, Memory and SSDs

Equity Bottom-Up

Samsung's revenues have risen above Intel's for the second time in history, making Samsung the semiconductor market leader.  This should be a short-lived distinction, though, as was Samsung's similar distinction in 2018.  This Insight explains why Samsung will lose it's first-ranked position, and what the company would need to do to gain a sustainable leadership of the market.

Thematic (Sector/Industry)

July semiconductor revenues, just reported by the SIA, reached a record high.  Today's market bears a strong resemblance to the high-growth days of 2017-18, and an end will come when the market falls back to normal growth.  This presents opportunities for growth in the near term and shorts in the longer term.

Semiconductors Continue Surprise Strength

The semiconductor market reached record revenues in June.  Much of this has been driven by a mild shortage in semiconductor memories, DRAM and NAND flash, but the larger shortage of older technologies has also had a hand in this.
