adventtr China’s role in the global technology supply chain continued to expand in April, with the country’s high-tech exports surging 39.2% year over year. The sharp increase highlights Beijing’s growing influence across industries tied to artificial intelligence, advanced manufacturing, and digital infrastructure. High-tech products now account for more than one-quarter of China’s total exports, reflecting the country’s accelerating transition from a low-cost manufacturing hub into a central pillar of the global technology ecosystem. The trend comes as worldwide demand for AI-related infrastructure continues to climb. While artificial intelligence is often associated with software and data models, the sector also depends heavily on a vast physical industrial network. Data centers, semiconductors, servers, electronic components, batteries, cooling systems, power equipment, and industrial machinery all play critical roles in supporting AI development and deployment. China remains deeply embedded across many of these supply chains, either through direct production or the sourcing of key materials and components. As investment in AI infrastructure grows globally, China’s expanding high-tech export footprint underscores how closely the future of artificial intelligence is tied to international manufacturing and industrial capacity.

TwilightEye/E+ via Getty Images Thesis Summary Intel ( INTC ) is arguably one of the most divisive companies in the market right now. After being regarded as dead money for months, the stock has now doubled as semiconductor stocks have become the hottest trade on Wall Street. But is Intel really worth today’s price? The company lost the AI race, missed mobile, got crushed in CPUs, and spent years floundering in the market. And yet, I think there’s a real argument that Intel could one day become a trillion-dollar company. This would require the stock to trade at around $200, which would be another 50% rally from here We can definitely get there in the next 5 years, but likely the stock has run too far today, but for reasons I’ll discuss below, I maintain a Buy rating. Intel’s Problem Was Never Demand The mistake many investors make with Intel is assuming the company lacks relevance, and this is why many missed the boat. Even at its worst, Intel was still generating billions in sales. The real issue was execution, or lack thereof, something I highlighted in my last piece. For years, Intel lost market ground to competitors like Advanced Micro Devices ( AMD ), while failing to generate new sources of revenue. That destroyed investor confidence, and Intel became one of the stocks like PayPal ( PYPL ) that seems permanently undervalued. But two things over the last year changed everything for Intel. The Manufacturing Leap It’s been known for a while that Intel has made a big play to become a fab. In other words, it wants to build out the capacity to actually make chips. During the early days, investors were sceptical of this move, since it requires massive upfront investment, and the market is dominated by Taiwan Semi ( TSM ). But in the face of what we’ve seen in the last few months, it’s hard not to see this as a brilliant move. There’s a very real bottleneck in AI manufacturing. Memory is the standout, which is not something Intel does, but we’re seeing bottlenecks eve...

BING-JHEN HONG/iStock Editorial via Getty Images Thesis Everyone knows NVIDIA ( NVDA ) for the enormous impact its software platforms and GPU advancements have had on AI development, and the market prices it accordingly. But where does the value truly lie? It is in something that nobody seems to recognize, that being that NVIDIA is, in fact, 3 companies under one ticker, not just the AI poster child everyone prices it as, but in fact something larger-scale and more sustainable. NVIDIA is silently becoming the world's largest networking company, influencing the flourishing token economy and spearheading the evolution of physical AI, all at the same time. For these reasons, I rate NVIDIA a Buy with ~20-25% upside as the company reaches global scale in multiple facets. Company Background NVIDIA operates within two main segments, with the revenue split quickly becoming skewed towards the compute sector as AI datacenter demand has exploded in the last few years. Here is a synopsis of the two sectors, for those who need a refresher: Compute & Networking: Develop and sell AI-accelerated computing platforms, datacenter solutions, and automotive platforms (self-driving car interface) Graphics: GeForce graphics cards for gaming, GPUs for enterprise workstations , and software for cloud-based computing. The revenue split is roughly 90/10 for Compute and Graphics, respectively (FY26 10-K Page 40). Exponentially increasing demand for AI GPU solutions and compute has led to the compute segment heavily outweighing that of graphics, which was historically significant to company operations. NVIDIA: A Networking Player That Outlasts Bearish GPU Share Erosion Many of the bear cases surrounding NVIDIA focus on GPU market share erosion (CUDA-moat-erosion, AMD > NVIDIA), citing TPU migration risk , Trainium adoption, and other market headwinds as evidence. But these miss the true value proposition, one that ensures the company remains central to the AI market through increased competitio...

Only on Sunday, Starmer was talking about his 2029 manifesto. If a week is a long time in politics, this one already feels longer A masterpiece new entry for the dictionary of political quotes, as a Labour MP told the Guardian yesterday of the party’s leadership options: “We have to face up to the fact that every single one of them is fucking useless.” Anyway, come on in and experience chaosmaxxing with the governing party! Let’s take a look at the runners, riders, loose horses and horse traders who just want Keir Starmer to go and live on a farm. This is a fast-moving situation, so please don’t worry if something different seems to have happened to him by the time you read this column. Apparently the van you saw is owned by a vet who had simply failed to repaint it. Although one thing we absolutely must insist on the death of in the hours/days/weeks ahead is the catchphrase “I get it”, or the observation of another hopeful that he or she “gets it”. At this rate, the only thing people will be interested in many of this lot getting is hantavirus. The language in general is unconvincingly exquisite. Behold, people asking delicately for an “exit timetable” when what they really want to do is get the PM on the first train to Eff Off For Ever. Some cabinet ministers have reportedly discussed how Starmer could take “a responsible, dignified, orderly” approach to departure, to which the only answer now is: get a time machine, buddy.
