(Bloomberg) -- Elon Musk’s lieutenants have reached out to chip industry suppliers including Applied Materials Inc., Tokyo Electron Ltd. and Lam Research Corp. for his envisioned Terafab, early steps in an audacious and likely arduous attempt to break into the production of cutting-edge chips. Staff working for the joint venture between Tesla Inc. and SpaceX have sought price quotes and delivery times for an array of chipmaking gear, people familiar with the matter said.

owngarden/iStock via Getty Images Investment Thesis Note: This is an update to my previous article . Paul Mueller ( MUEL ) had a record fourth quarter with sales growth of 30% and a 59% year-over-year increase in backlog. Also, capital allocation remains shareholder-friendly while the company seeks to capitalize on growth opportunities through a new manufacturing facility. All of this, combined with an attractive current valuation, leads me to maintain my buy rating and even slightly improve my outlook for the company. Record Backlog and High Growth It's been over six months since my last coverage of Paul Mueller. Back then, I commented that the company was becoming an unexpected beneficiary of data centers, but that at the same time, his legacy business was solid and this new market was merely optional. Well, fiscal year 2025 has ended, and it's worth reviewing how that thesis has progressed. In my previous valuation model, I estimated sales of $268 million for 2025, but I was quite far off the mark, and sales closed at $287 million, representing 15% year-over-year growth thanks to an extraordinary Q4 2025 with 33% growth. This growth wasn't limited to the top line, by the way. Operating income also grew 18% year-over-year, and net margins reached 12% at year-end (pretty much in line with my previous estimate), but Q4 was again stellar, with net margins closing at 14%. Fourth quarter 2024 2025 Change Revenue $70.5M $94.1M 33.6% EBIT $13.6M $17.0M 25.2% EPS $11.9 $14.7 23.9% Click to enlarge Author's compilation What strikes me most is that it wasn't just a solid quarter, and rather there are signs that this trend could continue. The backlog reached $243.6 million, up 59% year-over-year, suggesting that demand isn't only holding steady but even accelerating in a way. Something worth noting is that I previously mentioned the company was entering the data center market through its chillers, heat exchangers, and water storage tanks. However, there's no evidence that th...

Indian equities look set to build on Wednesday’s rally, tracking gains in global stocks on bets of a de-escalation of the Middle East conflict. The US and Iran are considering a two-week extension of the ceasefire to allow more time to negotiate a peace deal. At home, the Nifty’s decisive move above the 24,200 mark in the last session signals bulls have taken charge in April after four straight months of declines in the benchmark. But with crude still not too far from the $100 mark and foreign flows remaining patchy, the durability of this rebound will be tested. Indian officials have said the Iran war could be as disruptive to the economy as the Covid pandemic was. Meanwhile, Wipro and HDFC Life are among the Nifty companies reporting earnings today. In today’s newsletter, we explain why: Kotak AMC is bullish on defense stocks It may be a good time to bet on bonds ICICI Securities is wary of asset managers’ shares But first, let’s look at the resurgence in small-cap stocks. Markets Buzz: Small Caps Erase War Losses Small-cap stocks are back in the spotlight . The cohort has fully reouped losses triggered by the Iran war, thanks to a surge of over 12% in April, signaling a return of risk appetite. After a rough 2025, money is flowing into smaller firms, supported by faster earnings growth than that of their larger peers. Often seen as a barometer of the market’s animal spirits and popular among retail investors, small caps have fared better overall in 2026. The benchmark Nifty 50 Index is down 7.3% so far in 2026, while the NSE Nifty SmallCap 250 Index has lost just 3.8%...
