RT @SenDanSullivan: Taiwan’s legislature adjourned last week without passing the budget necessary for Taiwan to defend itself. Meantime, the leadership of the opposition party responsible for this, the KMT, is in Beijing meeting with the CCP and planning bigger engagements. It doesn’t take a genius to figure out what’s going on here. I’ve warned before - short changing Taiwan’s defense to kowtow to the CCP is playing with fire.

RT @GordonGChang: In the first half-decade of this century, Gen. Chi Haotian, then China’s defense minister, reportedly gave a secret speech advocating the use of biological weapons to exterminate the American population. The CCP is apparently now building the infrastructure on our soil to do that.

RT @DividendTalks: This is how Wall Street is positioning for semiconductors in 2026.
Not Twitter hype.
Not retail flow.
Actual top picks from JPMorgan, Morgan Stanley, Bank of America, Citi, and Goldman Sachs.
Different banks.
Different models.
Same conclusion.
The names that keep showing up:
$NVDA
$AVGO
$ASML
$LRCX
$AMAT
$ADI
$CDNS
$KLAC
This isn’t about “the next AI stock.”
It’s about who controls the bottlenecks:
• EUV lithography $ASML
• Chipmaking equipment $LRCX $AMAT $KLAC
• High-value IP and design software $CDNS $ADI
• System-level leverage $NVDA $AVGO
When banks align like this, they’re not trading headlines - they’re underwriting multi-year capex, backlog visibility, and pricing power.
Retail chases earnings beats.
Institutions position years ahead.
The real question isn’t “what’s the next runner?”
It’s where in the semiconductor stack you want exposure.
Front-end tools?
Back-end manufacturing?
Design & IP?
Or system-level monopolies?
Which of these do you own - and which do you think Wall Street is most confident in for 2026?
