"Full-Fledged Ice Age": Semiconductor Companies Slash Output On Supply Glut Samsung Electronics, the world''s largest memory chipmaker, provided more insight into the worsening slowdown for semiconductors and the bust in global PC markets. Korea Economic Daily reported Samsung "lowered its semiconductor sales forecast for the second half of the year by more than 30%." The newspaper attributed slumping semiconductors demand "as the economy froze due to central bank rate hikes caused by global inflation." The paper warned: "As the semiconductor industry has entered a full-fledged ice age , there are many forecasts in the industry that the recession will continue until the first half of next year when semiconductor inventories are eliminated." Earlier this week, Samsung''s Device Solutions division said they "lowered our sales guidance for the second half of this year (the company''s internal forecast) by 32% from our April forecast." None of this should be a surprise as we recently outlined PC Demand Suffers'' Steepest Decline In Years'' As Chip Shortage Turns To Glut . "Both DRAM and NAND flash suppliers and customers are holding too many semiconductor inventories," an official told Korea Economic Daily.

NEW YORK : Wall Street stocks suffered another ugly rout on Thursday (Sept 29) as US bond yields resumed their upward climb on a bruising day for shares of Apple and other tech giants. Thursday''s economic reports included data showing a drop in weekly US jobless claims that point to a strong labor market likely to keep the Federal Reserve focused on its current policy of countering inflation. “Risky assets don’t stand a chance of a meaningful rally if the economy continues to show resilience while inflation continues to be significantly above the Fed’s funds rate,” said Oanda’s Edward Moya. The broad-based S&P 500 dropped 2.1% to 3,640.47, its lowest close since November 2020. The Dow Jones Industrial Average lost 1.5% to 29,225.61, while the tech-rich Nasdaq Composite Index tumbled 2.8% to 10,737.51. FHN Financial''s Chris Low said investors were also unnerved by market volatility in Britain after Prime Minister Liz Truss doubled down on a controversial tax cut policy that has rattled markets.
September has historically been the worst month for stocks . With the S&P 500 down 7.5% with one trading day to go, you could say September is living up to its reputation. Well, almost. The index actually did worse in April and June, falling 9% and 8.8% , respectively. For September to claim its title, the S&P 500 would need to close the month below 3,582. After today’s rout, that would take a drop of about 1.6%. Certainly not out of the realm of possibility. Given this, you might be wondering why I’m writing about growth stocks to buy. I have three reasons. First, September is coming to an end and we are headed into a traditionally stronger period for stocks and the start of the Q3 earnings season. July, which marked the start of the Q2 earnings season, was by far the best month for stocks this year, with the S&P 500 up 9.2%. Second, this week’s bond-buying initiative by the Bank of England showed investors that, even during periods of high inflation, central banks are ready, willing and able to come to the rescue to prevent a true financial crisis from materializing.

Stocks Slide, Ugly Mood Returns As Traders Ask ''Did Anything Change'' The brief post-BOE euphoria has worn off, and risk-off sentiment returned to markets as concern about inflation and the global economy overshadowed the Bank of England’s desperate attempt to restore calm by restarting QE, exacerbated by more hawkish central bank talk and defiance by British PM Liz Truss''s tax plan (which has been slammed from the IMF all the way to the White House ). Treasuries resumed their slide with UK gilts, while US equity futures fell as European stocks extended a selloff that’s caused valuations to drop to their lowest since 2012.

Supply Chain Effects From Hurricane Ian Could Linger For Weeks By Eric Kulisch of FreightWaves The risk to manufacturing, agriculture and distribution sectors in Florida is rapidly intensifying as powerful Hurricane Ian takes aim at the state’s southwest coast. But the economic ripple effects are likely to be felt well beyond the storm zone. Experts are predicting severe disruption to supply chains from flooding, power outages and wind damage that could stall factory and farm production, as well as freight movement through major port, airport, highway and rail nodes. The Tampa-to-Orlando corridor is chockablock full of huge retail and e-commerce distribution centers. Meanwhile, Typhoon Noru is similarly upsetting supply chains in Southeast Asia as it barrels across the South China Sea toward Vietnam. Ian is expected to make landfall in western Florida on Wednesday, according to forecasters. Major flooding from the storm surge is expected for communities along Tampa Bay. The storm could impact up to 2,800 manufacturing firms in aerospace, automotive components, heavy machinery, chemicals and plastics, as well as about 7,000 health care producers in pharmaceuticals, medical devices, diagnostics and other fields, Everstream Analytics, which uses predictive software to help customers like Apple and Schneider Electric manage supply chain risk, said in a weather update Tuesday. “Even just a couple hours of downtime at a major production site or industrial zone means additional time making repairs, spinning up machinery and restarting work,” said analyst Anthony Yanchuk.

Do you own a foldable PC? A dual-screen PC? How about a laptop with two screens? All but a few of you will answer “no.” So why was Samsung’s demonstration of a slideable OLED display this week important? If you ask Intel executives, the answer is not always what you’d expect: Because it’s the other display technologies that benefit, and eventually you. Samsung Display chief executive JS Choi appeared on stage on the first day of Intel’s Innovation conference on San Jose to show off a 17-inch “slideable” display, which pulls out horizontally to expand the screen. Choi said that the prototype, which has yet to get a production date or price, was chosen over a foldable option. “As the leading provider of OLED technologies, this just convinces me that we have a lot more coming between us,” said Pat Gelsinger, Intel’s chief executive. Gelsinger earlier introduced the 13th-generation Core processor, code-named Raptor Lake , though he later downplayed an imminent 6GHz chip . Samsung Display’s slideable OLED display.

Futures Rebound From 2022 Low After Bank Of England Panics, Restarts Unlimited QE With everything biw breaking, including an explosive move in bond yields in the UK, 10Y yields rising above 4.00%, and Apple "suddenly" realizing there was not enough demand for the latest iteration of its iPhone 5, it was only a matter of time before some central bank somewhere capitulated and pivoted back to QE, and this morning that''s precisely what happened when the BOE delayed the launch of QT and restarted QE " on whatever scale is necessary" on a "temporary and targeted" ( lol ) basis to restore order, which sent UK bond surging (and yields tumbling the most on record going back to 1996 erasing an earlier jump to the the highest since 1998)… ... the pound first surged before falling back as traders realized the UK now has both rate hikes and QE at the same time, the dollar sliding then spiking, the 10Y US TSY yield dipping from 4.00%, the highest level since 1998, and stock futures spiking from fresh 2022 lows, but then fizzling as traders now demand a similar end to QT/restart of QE from the Fed or else they will similarly break the market.
There are several large-cap stocks with dividend growth potential even as broad market conditions remain challenging. In general, large-cap stocks are ignored by investors in a bull market. However, funds flow into large-cap stocks once market sentiment turns bearish. The reason is that large-cap companies have earnings and cash flow stability. With the market correction, several large-cap stocks are also trading at an attractive valuation. Besides sustained dividend growth, I would expect healthy capital gains from these large-cap stocks. My focus is primarily on large-cap companies that are relatively immune to economic shocks. The cash flows, therefore, remain robust and provide headroom for dividend growth. There are cyclical businesses with an investment-grade balance sheet that continue to increase shareholder returns even during challenging times. Let’s talk about seven large-cap stocks with dividend growth potential. CVX Chevron $143.20 AZN Astra Zeneca $53.86 MO Altria $41.69 AAPL Apple $153.53 COST Costco $484.36 LMT Lockheed Martin $408.65 T AT&T $16.01 Chevron Corporation (CVX) Source: Jeff Whyte / Shutterstock.com From highs of $182, Chevron (NYSE: CVX ) stock has corrected by 22% as oil declines on macroeconomic concerns.
It may not occur to investors to look for blue-chip sleeper stocks, since they don’t often think of blue-chips as “sleepers.” In tough times, seasoned investors seek comfort in the stability and safety that well-established robust companies can offer. Blue-chip businesses generate consistent earnings thanks to their vast resources, resilient business models, and strong brands. In addition, such businesses boast impressive track records of delivering strong returns over the long term, including consistent and growing dividend payments. In an environment where the benchmark S&P 500 index has lost a quarter of its value year to date, the market now offers a range of undervalued blue-chip stocks. Clearly, some of these businesses have been unfairly punished by the jittery market sentiment. Put another way, the recent decline in valuations of some of the leading blue-chip stocks represents a compelling buying opportunity for patient, long-term investors. These stocks are primed to provide robust capital returns when market sentiment reverses.
Apple Inc. is backing off plans to increase production of its new iPhones this year after an anticipated surge in demand failed to materialize, according to people familiar with the matter.
The Cupertino, California-based electronics maker has told suppliers to pull back from efforts to increase assembly of the iPhone 14 product family by as many as 6 million units in the second half of this year, said the people, asking not to be named as the plans are not public. Instead, the company will aim to produce 90 million handsets for the period, roughly the same level as the prior year and in line with Apple’s original forecast this summer, the people said.
Demand for higher-priced iPhone 14 Pro models is stronger than for the entry-level versions, according to some of the people. In at least one case, an Apple supplier is shifting production capacity from lower-priced iPhones to premium models, they added.
