TRT an Undervalued Semiconductor ProducerTRT's stock price has fallen in value from a yearly high of $7.50 to a $4.30 to $4.55 demand zone. Trio-Tech has relatively strong finances when benchmarking this semi-conductor company at the 79th percentile within the semiconductor industry. This is a company that has been impacted by the economic slump created by COVID-19 and the China-United States trade war imposed by the 45th U.S. president, Donald J. Trump, in 2019 due to TRT's operations within Southeast Asia to include China, Thailand, Malaysia, and Singapore. Despite these factors, TRT has maintained profitability as demand for semiconductors continues to surge during the current shortage that had dampened the auto industry and continues to negatively affect personal computers, smartphones, and other hardware. TRT's stock price moves on an average of $0.36 cents in a day for 2021 with an average volume of 94,000. The fair value is calculated to be at $6.84/per share of TRT, much higher than the current price making TRT an attractive option for value investors.

BOE Released its Performance Forecast: Profits Might be IncreaseBOE expects to achieve a net profit of CNY 12.5 billion to CNY 12.7 billion in the first half of 2021, with a year-on-year growth of 1001% to 1018%. On July 13, BOE Technology Group Co., Ltd. (BOE) released its 2021 semi-annual performance forecast. According to the announcement, the basic earnings per share are expected to be about CNY 0.355 to CNY 0.361, 13 times higher than that of CNY 0.026 apiece in the same period of 2020. The announcement shows that BOE's good performance is attributed to the global semiconductor display industry's prosperity, with stronger demand and rising prices caused by the shortage of raw materials. Meanwhile, the company's mature production lines will maximize production and sales, maintaining a leading position in the LCD mainstream application market, improving profitability and the product mix. According to BOE's 2020 financial report, the annual revenue was CNY 135.55 bn, with an increase of 16.80% year-on-year; the net profit was CNY 5.04 bn, reporting growth of 162.46%. Furthermore, the company achieved a net operating cash flow of about CNY 39.25 bn, with cash on hand of approximately CNY 73.69 bn. During the same period, BOE's overall display shipments ranked first globally, including five major application fields such as smartphones, tablets, laptops, monitors and TVs. In addition, based on the forecast data of Sigmaintell, the firm will still rank first in the world in terms of display shipments in the five application areas of smartphones, tablets, laptops, monitors and TVs. And the market share of automotive display panels over 8 inches will also continue to remain the world's first. Omdia, a technology research firm, predicted that BOE, TCL CSOT and HKC would become the top three global panel production capacities, accounting for 25.3%, 17.2% and 10.3% respectively.

A great buy and holdTexas Instruments is a semi conductor manufacturer that appears to have attractive growth prospects within the forecasted high growth semi conductor sector or investment theme. Stats The average free cash flow over the last 10 years is 29.9% with an annual dividend yield of 2.27%. Growth in annual revenue over the last 10 years has been modest. On average total operating expenses has seen a modest declined since 2006. As the revenue has grown and operating expenses has declined, the margins at face value has increased. One can see this by the growth in annual gross profit. What about the debt? long-term debt to total assets ratio is at 0.34 or 34%. The standard debt to asset ratio is 0.37% which means that most of the debt is long term debt. The effective interest on the total debt is less than 3%. So no real problem or red flags there. The company is however taking on more debt compared to its historical position. This isn't necessarily a bad thing provided that it is well managed and reinvested into the company. I don't like companies that take on more debt and pay high dividend yields. That's just a personal view. With regards to the price per share. The company may be trading at a fair value based on traditional metrics and on some metrics such as price to book, it looks expensive. With a 5 year view, i think the company could be in a really good position to continue to grow its revenue particularly if you reinvest the dividends over time. The trading signals on the weekly chart show mixed results. The Demarker and Stochastic Momentum Indicator suggest that the price may need to consolidate for a while or even retrace before it sees another upward leg. The Stochastic Relative Strength Index shows that the price may increase in the short term, however, this may be suggesting that the price may break through the 185 or 190 mark before retracing to the 160 area. This is all short term guesses. The question is, should one buy and hold at the current price or wait for a retracement? My feeling is that it shouldn't matter to much if you are looking to hold the company for the next 5 years or more. Please like and follow for daily posts on various asset classes.

Photronic Future Projection and DD over the coming ~3 monthsI project an increase in the stock price of NASDAQ:PLAB due to: Increase in revenue since the last quarter. Commitment to Chinese and Taiwanese production plants that have a solid backing of governmental support. New technologies within the industry combined with a solid demand that wont decrease and the mono-product nature of Photronic. Demand for smartphones and similar products have increased in the last quarter of 2020 and the first quarter of 2021. Internally the company believes that the industry-wide stocks is oversold, as told in their 'Photronics Q1 - FY21 Earnings' web-conference available on their website. The lack of supply of their product market-wide has made possible for the first time in 35 years an increase in main-stream pricing of their product, as shared in the same conference at the 40 minute mark. Available on the website is also two videos, hosted on YouTube, discussing two of their most recent production plants in China. But the low view-count (500) tells me they are videos made for investment meetings and similar meetings and therefore the company itself are making big steps to increase their production and gain governmental and private support. As far as indicators go: The MACD is below 0 and looks to move over the signal line and over the 0 line again. The Ichimoku cloud has a red cloud within the near future but I project that it will quickly close and return to a green cloud. The RSI is below the mid line and the current situation is reflected in past movements of the RSI. As far as fundamentals go: The support and resistance of the stock has had incremental increases since the start of the quarter. The revenue movement compared to last years Q1 is only -2%, which is a market situation that doesn't reflect most other industries as many are still recovering from the effects of Covid-19. As far as the only negative I can find in this DD is that the CEO of the company sold a fifth of his personal stocks for an undervalued price of around 11$ at the turn of the year. It could be personal reasons or a need for more capital in the company could have necessitated this sell of, but in any case its the only point I cannot fully explain or reason, but that may also be down to a lack of experience on my own part. If you have any thoughts on this please share. Personally, I have an alert set for the crossing of the Ichimoku Conversion line up and over the Ichimoku Base Line to indicate a value increase that could projectically rise and stay risen at least temporarily over the next month or two. Thank you, and please, if you have any other thoughts or counter-points make sure to share them so I may discuss this symbol with you.

NXPI - trade idea if NXPI can hold the trend the line on the 1 HR I believe it will continue to push higher however it does have some bearish indicators such as decreasing momentum and a bearish cross on MACD. if it fails to hold the trend line I believe it can drop to the nearest resistance. the 4 hr looking somewhat bearish but the 1 day looks bullish overall. *NXPI Is being added to SP500...can cause short term pop. In summation, bullish very long term, possibly bullish short term only if we hold the trend line. If not, bearish short term, going to wait the first hour or so to see which direction we take. as always do your own analysis before placing any trade this is for education purpose only and is not investment advice.

AMD update: potential path based on technical analysisNo death cross on the daily chart. The stock has significant support at the $73.90 level. Most recent resistance at the $87.10 level. 4H Chart Looking Bearish Short-term but on the verge of a reversal back into bullish sentiment. We'll see how this plays out with stimulus just being announced with the backdrop of a global semiconductor shortage. It could be choppy, be careful. There could be some chop while the chip shortage is resolved and the tech sell-off finishes, but this should be a good medium-term trade/investment to start building a position in. Buy under $80. Price Target $100-115 Stop Loss $70.

WATT Potential Over-Correction BreakoutWATT (Energous Corp.) Identifying the primary breakout levels indicates a high probability for a breakout event beginning on 21/3/8. WATT has had two prior breakout events at the 3.80 level, first on a descending trend and second on an ascending trend, with a high peaks realized following descending trend lines (Over-Correction). The current scenario is occurring on a descending trend line at the point of uptrend reversal. Other factors include the ongoing market correction that caused a steep down trend to occur last week. This increases the probability for an over-correction up to approximately 4.33 (+/-) in the up trend. Full disclosure, I currently have no position in WATT so this projection just my unbiased opinion of a probable movement, based solely on previous performance.

TSM Long 12/23/2020TSM is a leading chip maker for some of the largest tech companies on the planet, including Apple, Sony, Huawei, Qualcomm, and others. It is pushing new all time highs & I bought in anticipation of a breakout to those new highs. I got long half of a position @ $104.14 with a stop @ $101.75. I didn't feel comfortable putting on a full sized position going into year-end, but if the trade continues to work for me, I am looking to add. With an initial stop loss of ~2.3%, I am looking for at least a 5% move from my initial entry price, which is roughly the $109.50 level.
