Episode 96: Sell This Top Semiconductor Stock and Stay Away Until 2025? Axcelis Technologies (ACLS)
We have looked over Axcelis Technologies (ACLS) stock multiple times over the past six to nine months, but have never pulled the trigger on buying this small cap stock. But what about now, after a big selloff in recent months as the EV market and other industrial semiconductor demand has fallen?
In this episode of Chip Stock Investor, Nick and Kasey take a deeper look into this company centered in a choke point in the semiconductor fab equipment industry. Axcelis focuses primarily on an important step in the process called ion implantation. This niche within the chip manufacturing process is an essential part of producing semiconductors, including for new power chips made of silicon carbide SiC. Will Chip Stock Investor finally be adding this stock to its investment portfolio?
00:00 Introduction and Market Overview
00:27 Deep Dive into Axcelis Technologies
01:47 Introduction to Ion Implantation
03:19 Understanding the Ion Implantation Process
05:10 Axcelis Technologies' Market Position

Episode 95: Hot Stocks 2024: Semiconductor Manufacturing & Apple Vision Pro Chip Supplier (AMAT & LSCC stock)
In this video, Chip Stock Investor discusses the earnings of two of their top favorites in the industry: Lattice Semiconductor (LSCC) and Applied Materials (AMAT).
Lattice’s recent report was admittedly not great, but not unexpected with the current state of industrial and automotive markets – including electric vehicles (EVs). Year over year though, the company reported some progress, awesome profit margins, and a squeaky clean balance sheet. Pair that with a solid product lineup and a new large OEM in the headset market (Apple’s (AAPL) Vision Pro), Lattice still has our vote of confidence for the long term.
Applied Materials is a dominant player in the wafer fab equipment space, and for good reason. Even though growth has been flat, they are well positioned for ongoing growth in the high-end data center and accelerated computing market (AI). Even though ASML gets all the attention and hype, don’t forget what an important player AMAT is!
Nick Rossolillo and Kasey Rossolillo will be back next week with more stock coverage. Check out the new Discord membership for more discussion on stocks in general, and get access to our show notes on the Ko-Fi shop. And stay tuned for our upcoming Cybersecurity Industry Manual for 2024!!!

Episode 94: Will This Top AI Stock Dominate Again In 2024? Cadence Design’s (CDNS Stock) Epic Closeout to 2023
Chip Stock Investors Nick and Kasey discuss Cadence Design Systems (CDNS) in today’s video, the #2 player in the electronic design automation (EDA) oligopoly behind Synopsys (SNPS) and ahead of Siemens EDA (formerly Mentor Graphics).
They talk about Cadence’s impressive performance in 2023, which has steadily propelled the “top AI stock” to new heights. Cadence Design Systems has had a successful organic developer of new tech, and its collaborations (such as with Nvidia), and its impact on AI and accelerated computing systems, has put it in position for excellent growth prospects going forward.
Its hardware division is also a good indicator of the overall semiconductor market, acting as a proxy for more good times to come. Watch this video to learn more about Cadence Design Systems, and how Chip Stock Investor is handling this investment in their own portfolio.

Episode 93: Arista Networks Stock Has Doubled In the Last Year – Is Management Planning A BIGGER Move Next?
In this episode of Chip Stock Investor, Nick and Kasey discuss the recent performance and future prospects of Arista Networks (ANET). The company is known for its design of networking hardware for data centers and internet infrastructure – the highways and freeways that data travels on.
Arista Networks' stock has doubled in the past year. AI has lent a big helping hand, and its market share continues to grow at the expense of Cisco. Despite a predicted slowdown in growth in 2024, the company continues to show strong performance, and high profit margins. There is also a growing amount of cash on the balance sheet, and with no share repurchases last quarter, could Arista be planning something big?
Stay tuned later this week for updates on Cadence Design Systems (CDNS), Albemarle (ALB), and Lattice Semiconductor (LSCC)! Our show notes are available on our Ko-Fi shop, and consider joining our membership for more perks accessed via Discord.

Episode 92: ENPH Stock (Enphase Energy) Ready to Rocket Higher In 2024?
Enphase Energy (ENPH) had a not so sunny company earnings report for Q4 2023, and the bad news is it's only going to get worse in Q1. Enphase has had a significant decrease in revenue and free cash flow in recent quarters. The transition from NEM 2.0 to NEM 3.0 in California seems to have had an outsized impact on the solar inverter and battery energy storage business, as has a higher interest rate environment.
However, there are some positives. Enphase management thinks early 2024 could be the bottom for this downturn. It’s also making a solid go expanding into new markets, and is undershipping solar inverter supply to its customers to manage inventory.
Does this next-gen energy stock favorite meet the Chip Stock Investor criteria for the portfolio? Nick and Kasey discuss what’s going on, and when they might be interested in buying again.
Chapters:
00:00 Introduction to Enphase Energy
01:01 Understanding Enphase's Market Position
02:59 Enphase's Financial Highlights
03:44 Impact of the Pandemic on Enphase
04:56 Enphase's Q1 2024 Outlook

Episode 91: “Exclusive Report” New Nvidia Chips Competing With Broadcom and Marvell – Are the Stocks Doomed?
In this episode of Chip Stock Investor, Nick and Kasey discuss a recent news report (https://www.reuters.com/technology/nvidia-chases-30-billion-custom-chip-market-with-new-unit-sources-2024-02-09/) suggesting Nvidia (NVDA) is aiming to compete in the custom data center and AI market, a domain currently “dominated” by Broadcom (AVGO) and Marvell (MRVL). There’s far more to the story, though.
They break down the definitions and types of semiconductors out there, including general purpose chips (merchant silicon) and Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs) and the use cases, especially for generative AI. They also explore NVIDIA's existing ASIC business, and consider whether its activities pose a real threat to Broadcom and Marvell, and whether the reported figures quoted by the media are entirely accurate when discussing the market share that Broadcom and Marvell actually have in ASIC development.
Stay tuned for our Enphase (ENPH) and solar energy episode later this week, as well as quarterly updates from some of our favorite cos including Arista Networks (ANET), Lattice Semiconductor (LSCC), and Cadence Design Systems (CDNS)!

Episode 89: Fortinet Stock Rally – Is It A Top Cybersecurity Buy For 2024?
In 2023, top cybersecurity pure-play Fortinet left us wondering how things were going to be shaping up as we entered 2024. The guidance for Q4 2023 left us feeling a little “meh.”
But, great news! Fortinet’s management under-promised and over-delivered! Despite initial uncertainties due to a projection for billings to drop, Fortinet exceeded financial guidance.
While Q1 2024 is expected to be lackluster due to the networking infrastructure industry cycle downturn, Fortinet's growth prospects for later in 2024 and beyond is looking positive! Chip Stock Investors Nick and Kasey break the numbers down in this video, and provide some thoughts on the current state of affairs for cybersecurity at large.

Episode 88: 2 Top EV Chip Stocks We’re Buying In February – On Semi and Aehr Test Systems
In this episode of Chip Stock Investor, we examine the Q4 2023 report for On Semiconductor (ON), one of our top semiconductor buys for 2024, and discuss its impact on Aehr Test Systems (AEHR). Similar to our take on Microchip (MCHP), it appears that things are going to get worse before they get any better for the automotive, EV, and general industrial markets this year.
But Onsemi has really positioned itself to ride out this storm. How has it done so, and are we still calling for this stock a top pick in our portfolio for 2024?
Aehr Test Systems has Onsemi as its leading customer, so what happens to Onsemi, happens to Aehr. Where does this recent report leave us? Will Aehr Test Systems also be able to weather this cyclical downturn?
