Thematic (Sector/Industry)

The latest WSTS semiconductor forecast provides a glittering outlook, but the organization's history, and the long-term trend of the industry, cast important doubt on the WSTS outlook.  Most of the positive sentiment appears to stem from the strong current market for memory chips.

The latest WSTS semiconductor forecast provides a glittering outlook, but the organization's history, and the long-term trend of the industry, cast important doubt on the WSTS outlook.  Most of the positive sentiment appears to stem from the strong current market for memory chips.

The Spring WSTS semiconductor forecast has been announced and it is very similar at the top-line level to the organization's Autumn forecast published six months ago.  At a more detailed level, though, there have been some significant changes that we explore here.

Spring WSTS Semiconductor Forecast Gives Mixed Outlook

The SIA has released April's semiconductor shipment numbers, and they look positive enough.  There is still considerable uncertainty both from the COVID pandemic and from the on-again, off-again US/China Trade War.

Technical and Quantitative Research

Vermilion Research

Vermilion’s objective is to deliver timely, actionable, and unique technical research to professional investors through the application of our various technical indicators.

Our research strategists seek to highlight securities which we believe are at major inflection points, based on our various technical and quantitative indicators, and offer asymmetric risk/return profiles. Our unique research methodology, centered on relative strength, enables our strategists to deliver superior investment recommendations.

Our process begins by organizing the universe of actively traded stocks into discrete sectors, then into industry groups. We then apply our technical and quantitative tools to identify developing price trends. Once attractive trends are identified within a selected sector or group, we screen for individual stocks which we believe offer the best risk/reward profile. We provide a historical perspective that often reveals, through our long-term charts, how price patterns often repeat themselves over time.
