TSM

Next 2-3 weeks should feature lots of outsized moves based on the huge rotations we've seen at the end of June/beginning of July.
I think we see big run ups on GOOG, TSM, and NVDA. Those 3 to me feel like where AI money will start to run to on any rotation back to semis.
The highest flyers of the past 3 months had mini-blow off tops, so I wouldn't touch those for the next couple of weeks: LRCX, KLAC, AMAT, ALAB, AMD, etc.
Feels like money will go where there's perceived "AI safety" (to me that's GOOG, TSM, NVDA). I don't trust any positive move on MSFT (or AAPL). MSFT has been trading up on down days only, which is almost never a sign of strength and instead just a sign of short covering or closings of paired trades (with MSFT being a hedge).

TSM has had a couple of days pullback. Good entry point for another long position. My TSM contracts have been my most valuable play this year.

TSM finally shutting their factory doors on monday

TSM pump into close PLZ, i changed my mind and don't want to hold these calls over the long weekend

The whole sector is so flooded with investment is there such a thing as a undervalued the radar stock that will survive the current market conditions (show me the money now)? "under the radar" also means most vulnerable if we go down, like Burry is suggesting.

They will all be inherently risky. Qualcomm, Google and TSM may all be undervalued but they are well known.
FN? COHR? CLS? FIX?

Jensen is also pointing out that the AI sector is bigger than just Nvidia. In a sense, he is building out the overall ai infrastructure because Nvidia is best poised to capitalize on the industry's growth. Investing in these companies helps them overcome bottlenecks...like perhaps TSM's shortcomings ( he also lauds TSM). If Nvidia keeps beating the earnings/revenues, NVDA keeps rising--just not fast enough for some investors but it's growing.

Looking at today’s semiconductor sector heatmap, it is almost entirely awash in red.
NVDA, AMD, TSM, AVGO, MU... it feels as though the entire sector has taken a massive hit all at once.
At times like this, I always hear two completely opposing viewpoints:
"This is the perfect time to buy in."
"People are still underestimating the severity of the valuation bubble in AI-related stocks."
Personally, I am neither adding to nor reducing my positions today. I plan to wait and see, trying to determine whether this is just normal market volatility or if the market is finally beginning to re-evaluate its expectations.
If you had spare capital on hand, would you choose to buy NVDA, switch to TSM, or simply steer clear of the semiconductor sector altogether? Why?

You're right. But when I look at the 5 largest Semi companies: Nvidia, TSM, Broadcom, Micron, the profitability really is there. At over 10 trillion in combine market cap, they really make up the majority of the what people are calling a bubble. But I really don't see bubble valuations from them

Swing trading much easier for me because I only trade big tech names or etfs such as SMH, SPY, QQQ, TSM, AVGO, NVDA. i am ok holding these if I get stuck. These are good long investments.

I need TSM to hit 455 today and I’ll have made enough money this week to buy a gently-used Honda Civic

Here's my high-conviction watchlist for selling premium if the market pulls back further. These are businesses I'd be comfortable owning if assigned.
**AI Compute & Semiconductors:** NVDA, MU, SNDK, TSM, ASML, AMAT
**AI Networking, Optics & Connectivity:** LITE, COHR, MRVL, CRDO, GLW, APH
**AI Power, Cooling & Infrastructure:** VRT, VICR, BE
**AI Platforms & Enterprise Software:** MSFT, META, SNOW
**Higher Risk / Emerging:** AXTI
The idea isn't to chase momentum. It's to let volatility work in my favor by selling premium on high-quality companies that are enabling the AI buildout across compute, memory, networking, power and enterprise software.

LOL bought TSM Monday, close to a 5% return last two days thought I was a genius.
Then today - I'm cursed
