KanawatTH Chip and AI-related stocks jumped on Tuesday following a report that U.S. President Donald Trump intends to wind down the military campaign against Iran within weeks. The Wall Street Journal reported that Trump told aides he is willing to end hostilities on a four-to-six-week timeline, prioritizing the degradation of Iran’s navy and missile stocks over the more complex mission of reopening the Strait of Hormuz. Trump also urged countries hit by Strait of Hormuz fuel disruptions to buy from the U.S. or “take it” themselves in remarks highlighting tensions with allies over the Iran war. Matt Gertken, BCA Research’s geopolitical and U.S. political strategist, says there is “zero chance” the U.S. will launch a conventional full-scale ground invasion of Iran, but the deep mistrust between the two nations means Tehran is clinging to its nuclear leverage more tightly than ever. Brent Futures ( CO1:COM ) climbed about 0.5%, while Crude Oil Futures ( CL1:COM ) rose nearly 1.2%. The tech-focused Nasdaq Composite ( COMP:IND ) jumped about 1.8%. At the same time, the benchmark S&P 500 ( SP500 ) rose about 1.3%. The blue-chip Dow ( DJI ) climbed nearly 1.1%. Shares of AI chipmaker Nvidia ( NVDA ) surged about 3%, while Advanced Micro Devices ( AMD ) rose nearly 2%. Broadcom ( AVGO ) jumped around 3, while Qualcomm ( QCOM ) was largely flat but in the green. Several other AI and networking-related stocks were also among the gainers. Celestica ( CLS ) surged around 5%, Coherent ( COHR ) soared about 4%, and Ciena ( CIEN ) jumped nearly 3%. Arista Networks ( ANET ), Corning ( GLW ), and Lumentum ( LITE ) each rose about 2%. Cisco ( CSCO ) was also in the green. Applied Optoelectronics ( AAOI ) seemed to buck the trend and dipped about 2%. Marvell Technology ( MRVL ), in which Nvidia is planning a $2B investment, surged about 8%. Arm ( ARM ) and Lattice Semiconductor ( LSCC ) soared around 5%, while GlobalFoundries ( GFS ) surged nearly 4%. Intel ( INTC ) and Taiwan Semico...

Sergii Vasylchenko/iStock via Getty Images Thesis Seagate Technology Holdings plc ( STX ) has had a great run since I recommended the stock back in early October. I still think that STX is a great company and overall in a good position, especially with its emphasis on HDD storage, which should continue to enjoy high-demand amid the AI boom. However, I do believe the AI-boom will cool a bit in the near term. I’m not in the AI bubble camp, to be clear, and believe that AI will continue to prove disruptive as a technology. That said, investor skepticism over massive AI CapEx spending, along with surging energy prices, could result in a short- to medium-term cooldown. I also suspect we’ll see governments pressuring tech companies to cool energy consumption for now, owing to the conflict in the Middle East and the closure of the Strait of Hormuz. Additionally, Alphabet has unveiled a few new algorithms that could allow LLMs to dramatically increase efficiency in terms of both memory (RAM) and storage. The reveal sent many memory and storage companies into a tailspin, and I believe it accounts for STX’s recent stumbles as well. That said, if my understanding of Google’s algorithms is correct, Seagate is likely not as exposed as memory companies, like SK Hynix, and also storage companies that focus on SSDs, like Western Digital ( WDC ). Seagate obtained more than 90% of its revenues from HDDs as of Q4 2025, rather than SSDs. Alphabet's ( GOOG ) algorithms should have a strong impact on memory and SSD demand, as these focus on the data LLMs frequently store on fast storage solutions. The underlying data lakes, including images, video files, and general text, won’t be as dramatically impacted. The memory/storage stumbles caused by Alphabet's new algorithms are not, I believe, a major threat to STX. While STX is recording strong growth, it is also rather pricey valuation-wise. This high valuation, combined with risk factors, including a cooling AI-race and especially the war ...

Significantly for Minerva investors, its current pipeline graphic from its website, accessed as I write on 03/30/2026, is identical to the one copied in my article nearly five years ago. It is a tightly focused pipeline, as shown below: Seeking Alpha It is strange to me that its pipeline graphic, accessed in 03/2026, includes a note that its status is as of 03/2021.
