title: ASML Investors Back AI Chip Boom, Eye Earnings Lift and Export Risks

description: ASML investors eye raised forecasts as booming AI chip demand lifts shares. Export limits, sales outlook, and China exposure are in focus for Q1 results.

snippets: We're investing in the picks and shovels of the AI revolution," said equity investment director Richard Carlyle of Capital Group, whose funds hold just over 3% of ASML's shares. He said his firm is closely watching EUV shipment volumes.

title: ASML investors bet on 'picks and shovels' of AI revolution

description: Investors in, Europe's most valuable listed company, are betting the chip-equipment maker can raise financial forecasts when it reports first-quarter earnings on Wednesday, as demand for artificial intelligence chips keeps orders for its machines running flat out. Shares in the Netherlands-based company have risen […]

snippets: Elevated expectations are evident in the stock's valuation. ASML is currently priced at 40 times next year's earnings, well above its five-year average level of 33 times. Positioning among investors — both long-only and hedge funds — looks more crowded than past quarters, according to JPMorgan Chase & Co.'s trading desk — leaving the stock particularly sensitive to any negative surprises.

snippets: ASML has forecast first-quarter sales of 8.2 billion to 8.9 billion euros, up from 7.7 billion euros a year earlier, and full-year revenue of 34 billion to 39 billion euros ($40 to $46 billion), compared with 32.7 billion euros in 2024. LSEG-polled analysts expect 8.5 billion euros in first-quarter revenue and 37.6 billion euros for the year.

snippets: Core challenges include whether ASML can keep up with demand for its chip-making tools, which can take more than a year to build, and whether potential new restrictions on exports to China could curb growth.

description: ASML a key player in the chip-equipment market is poised to announce robust first-quarter earnings bolstered by soaring demand for AI chips The Netherlands-based company has witnessed a 40 surge in share value this year largely due to heightened data center construction and the need for state-of-the-art chips

snippets: Reuters reported that the company is set to post a 50% increase in net profit for the January to March quarter. Analysts expect net profit of T$542.6 billion, ($17.1 billion), according to an LSEG SmartEstimate based on 19 analysts. Any result above T$505.7 billion would be the highest quarterly net income in the company's history and its ninth consecutive quarter of profit growth.

snippets: One area of focus will be whether TSMC maintains or raises its 2026 capital spending plans as that will reflect management's confidence in long-term AI demand, Zeng said.

snippets: Dutch tech giant ASML, which makes cutting-edge machines to manufacture semiconductor chips, said Wednesday that rapidly expanding AI-related investments had pushed up net profits as it also hiked its sales forecast for 2026.

snippets: ASML no longer reports quarterly new bookings, so investors are leaning harder on revenue guidance and shipment timing to judge demand. That makes execution a bigger swing factor for chip stocks tied to the AI buildout – delays can ripple from equipment makers to foundries and designers. EUV has no true competitor, but DUV does, and any bottleneck there can still slow overall fab expansion.

snippets: It's no secret that the quarter will be strong", Morningstar analyst Javier Correonero said. "We've had a lot of incremental positive news in the last month, like SK Hynix buying $8 billion in (ASML tools), or Samsung placing around $4-5 billion in orders".

snippets: ASML supplies lithography machines to chipmakers, including Taiwan's TSMC, which manufactures processors for Nvidia and Apple. It is the sole maker of extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography systems, which are essential to producing the most advanced AI chips.

snippets: L'Amministratore delegato dell'Eni, Descalzi, ha detto che bisogna riaprire al gas russo… "Sono pienamente d'accordo con lui. Non solo al gas, ma anche al petrolio che c'è in giro", dice il vicepremier. "Ma l'Amministratore Delegato di Eni- prosegue- ha detto che dal primo gennaio dell'anno prossimo non possiamo fare a meno del gas liquido dalla Russia perché altrimenti il sistema salta per aria.

In maggioranza convivono segnali pro-vigore occidentale e richieste pragmatiche sullo stretto di Hormuz; entro gennaio 2027 l'esecutivo punta a una possibile evoluzione. Meloni prepara l'incontro con Zelensky, ribadendo l'equilibrio interno. Trump-Pope anima il dibattito sulle opportune prese di posizione.

snippets: In ambienti di governo, il ragionamento del manager del 'Cane a sei zampe' viene letto per quello che è: la valutazione di un tecnico di grande spessore. Ma, allo stesso tempo, si sottolinea come la partita energetica abbia inevitabilmente anche una dimensione politica. E in questo quadro, per l'Italia guidata da Giorgia Meloni, resta centrale la necessità di mantenere la pressione occidentale sulla Federazione russa.

snippets: Nell'ultimo decreto con cui rinnovavamo lo sconto dei 25 centesimi sulle accise del gasolio abbiamo anche allargato una misura al mondo dell'agricoltura, che ci consente di riconoscere ai produttori un credito di imposta pari all'aumento che registrano - ha proseguito Meloni - Esattamente come abbiamo imposto di fatto un'impossibilità di aumentare il costo del gasolio agricolo. Stiamo cercando di dare risposte a questo settore.

snippets: A Palazzo Chigi, però, il tentativo è quello di tenere insieme i diversi livelli, anche indicando un orizzonte: gennaio 2027. Non solo una scadenza tecnica, ma – nelle speranze dell'esecutivo – il momento in cui il quadro potrebbe evolvere. L'auspicio, filtra da fonti di governo, è che entro allora cessino le ostilità tra Mosca e Kiev e si possa aprire una fase nuova di confronto. È con questo equilibrio che la premier si prepara al faccia a faccia di mercoledì con Volodymyr Zelensky.

snippets: Nel discorso dell'11 aprile al popolo di Israele, il primo Ministro Benjamin Netanyahu ha dichiarato che la loro campagna contro l'Iran "non è ancora finita", sebbene Israele abbia ottenuto "risultati storici" nel conflitto in corso. Il 13 aprile il governo israeliano ha approvato la proroga dello stato di emergenza nelle retrovie fino alla fine del mese. Tra le motivazioni c'è "l'incertezza riguardo al cessate il fuoco in Iran".

snippets: Poi, con il crescere delle sollecitazioni e con l'intensificarsi degli attacchi da parte delle opposizioni, arriva una presa di posizione più netta. In una seconda dichiarazione, la premier si smarca dal tycoon: "Pensavo che il senso della mia dichiarazione di questa mattina fosse chiaro, ma lo ribadisco con maggiore chiarezza. Trovo inaccettabili le parole del Presidente Trump nei confronti del Santo Padre", afferma Meloni.

snippets: Una linea che convive con sensibilità diverse dentro la maggioranza, mentre il contesto internazionale si fa sempre più instabile. La crisi legata alla chiusura dello stretto di Hormuz, con le sue ricadute sui flussi energetici, diventa l'argomento principale di chi – nella coalizione di governo – invita a un approccio più pragmatico. È soprattutto la Lega a spingere in questa direzione, con Matteo Salvini che e i suoi che tornano a sollevare il tema di una possibile revisione del veto sull'energia russa.

Revenue of $24.63 billion — the bank's highest quarterly figure in a decade — also topped Wall Street expectations of $23.55 billion. Geopolitical tensions that stoked volatility across asset classes helped push total markets revenue up 19% year-over-year to $7.2 billion, Reuters reported.

snippets: And while the firm shot down a report that it's looking to buy a U.S. regional bank, there will be questions about other potential deals, especially with several regulatory proposals that could allow the firm to spend more capital.

snippets: Citigroup Inc (NYSE:C) reported first-quarter profit that rose sharply from a year earlier and topped Wall Street estimates, helped by stronger trading performance and steady growth across its core businesses. The bank said revenue rose 14% to $24.63 billion, above analysts' expectations of $23.5 billion, while earnings per share came in at $3.06, compared with estimates of $2.6.

snippets: The bank reported its highest quarterly return on tangible common equity in five years and said it was about 90% of the way to completing the programmes it established to fix back-office and regulatory-reporting problems.

title: Goldman Sachs Shatters Earnings Estimates as Equities and M&A Surge Overpower Fixed Income Slump

snippets: Goldman Sachs GS.N on Monday also showed strength in equities trading. The bank's equities trading business had a record quarter, with revenue from trading intermediation and financing rising 27%. But the U.S. investment bank also showed weakness in its fixed income, currencies and commodities division.

snippets: The bank's ability to navigate this—generating $17.23 billion in total net revenue—indicates a decoupling of corporate earnings from broader geopolitical instability. Looking ahead, Goldman Sachs must focus on stabilizing its FICC desk while maintaining the momentum in its equities and advisory arms. The short-term challenge remains the final exit from the Apple ( NASDAQ: AAPL ) partnership.

snippets: Citigroup ( NYSE: C ) also emerged as a surprise winner this quarter, posting its highest revenue in a decade. Citigroup's 39% surge in equities trading indicates that the firm's long-running restructuring is finally bearing fruit, potentially creating a more competitive landscape for Goldman in the secondary markets.
