SEMI Taiwan bringing together 650 exhibitors, demonstrating country’s semiconductor prowess
(Tue, 28 Dec 2021)
[SEMI Taiwan bringing together 650 exhibitors, demonstrating country’s semiconductor prowess]
The largestever SEMICON Taiwan, a major showcase for semiconductor applications, will kick off Tuesday (December 28) at Taipei Nangang Exhibition Centre, Hall 1 (TaiNEX 1).
The annual expo connecting Taiwanese and international microelectronics companies will feature a record 2,150 booths from 650 exhibitors. This sheer number of participants highlights Taiwan’s
place in the semiconductor sphere, said Terry Tsao, president of organiser SEMI Taiwan.
Most of the buyers are based in Taiwan, as global industry players have set up offices in the country. The event can thus proceed with limited impact from COVID19 restrictions, CNA quoted Tsao as
saying.
Themed “Forward as One,” the show will focus on compound semiconductors, heterogeneous integration, smart manufacturing, and green manufacturing. SEMICON Taiwan 2021 is arguably the largest
exhibition in the world for compound semiconductors, which have piqued the market’s interest for their unlocked potential, Tsao said.
Also in the spotlight will be a pavilion for green manufacturing, which advocates environmental, social, and corporate governance (ESG) initiatives in the semiconductor sector. This area is
expected to expand next year as the country makes a greater effort to address environmental concerns.

Walmart Hit on Chinese Social Media Over Xinjiang Products (Tue, 28 Dec 2021)
Retail titan Walmart ( WMT ) - Get Walmart Inc. Report has drawn angry reactions on Chinese social media amid accusations it has stopped carrying products from Xinjiang in its China-based
stores.
Last week, President Joe Biden signed a law that forbids imports to the U.S. from Xinjiang, except when companies can prove the products weren’t produced by forced labor. China has violently
suppressed religious minorities in the region.
Chinese social media users blasted the Bentonville, Ark., company on Friday, saying they couldn’t find products that usually come from Xinjiang on Walmart and Sam’s Club online outlets in China,
The Wall Street Journal reported.
A Walmart spokesperson declined to comment to The Journal.
The paper found no Xinjiang products on Walmart and Sam’s Club’s China online stores. But it did find Xinjiang-sourced goods in a Beijing Walmart.
Morningstar analyst Zain Akbari puts fair value for Walmart at $145.
“Wide-moat Walmart saw strong fiscal 2022 third-quarter results (4% revenue growth versus our sub-2% expectation) as customers looked to the chain for value amid rising prices throughout the
economy,” he wrote last month.
“We believe the updraft is temporary, leading us to maintain our long-term targets of low-single-digit sales growth and mid-single-digit adjusted operating margins over the next decade. However,
our near-term estimates should rise.”
He raised his fair-value estimate from $136. But, “We still suggest investors await a more attractive entry point,” Akbari said.
Still, given the company’s pricing power and growing e-commerce presence, “we believe Walmart is well positioned to withstand a turbulent retail environment,” he said.
Walmart stock recently traded around $140, up 0.4%. The stock has traded flat for the past three months. The 52-week high, set in mid-August, is $152.57.

Chinese citizens slam Musk online after space station near-misses (Tue, 28 Dec 2021)
Chinese citizens slam Musk online after space station near-misses
28 December, 2021, 10:10 am
BEIJING, Dec 27 (Reuters) – Chinese citizens lashed out online against billionaire Tesla (TSLA.O) founder Elon Musk’s space ambitions on Monday after China complained that its space station was
forced to take evasive action to avoid collision with satellites launched by Musk’s Starlink programme.
The satellites from Starlink Internet Services, a division of Musk’s SpaceX aerospace company, had two “close encounters” with the Chinese space station on July 1 and Oct. 21, according to a
document submitted by China earlier this month to the U.N.’s space agency.
“For safety reasons, the China Space Station implemented preventive collision avoidance control,” China said in a document published on the website of the United Nations Office for Outer Space
Affairs.
The complaints have not been independently verified. SpaceX did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
In a post on China’s Twitter-like Weibo microblogging platform on Monday, one user said Starlink’s satellites were “just a pile of space junk”, while another described them as “American space
warfare weapons”.
With nearly 30,000 satellites and other debris believed to be orbiting the planet, scientists have urged governments to share data to reduce the risk of catastrophic space collisions.
“The risks of Starlink are being gradually exposed, the whole human race will pay for their business activities,” a user posting under the name Chen Haiying said on Weibo.
U.S. space agency NASA was forced to abruptly call off a spacewalk at the end of November, citing risks posed by space debris. Musk tweeted in response that some Starlink satellite orbits had
been adjusted to reduce the possibility of collisions.
China began constructing the space station in April with the launch of Tianhe, the largest of its three modules. The station is expected to be completed by the end of 2022 after four crewed
missions.
Musk has become a well-known figure in China, though Tesla’s electric-vehicle business has come under growing scrutiny from regulators, especially after a customer climbed on top of a Tesla car
at the Shanghai auto show in April to protest against poor customer service.

NVIDIA vs. Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing: Which Chip Stock is a Better Buy? (Tue, 28 Dec 2021)
As digital transformation picks up pace, the demand for semiconductor chips should keep rising because of their need to run advanced technological devices and electric vehicles (EVs). This,
coupled with the rising prices of chips due to the global shortage, should result in a solid upside for the semiconductor industry in 2022. NVIDIA (NVDA) and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing
(TSM) should benefit from the backdrop. But which of these two stocks is a better buy now?.
The rapid adoption of hybrid working and electric vehicles has increased the demand for semiconductors. While supply constraints have impacted the industry, the strong demand environment has
allowed companies to raise prices for their chips and generate substantial revenues.
The industry is expected to grow with the rising adoption of advanced technologies such as the internet of things (IoT), 5G, and artificial intelligence (AI). According to a Fortune Business
Insights report, the global semiconductor market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 8.6% between 2021 and 2028.
With this in mind, today I’ll analyze and compare two semiconductor giants: NVIDIA Corporation (NVDA) and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited (TSM). NVDA operates worldwide as a
visual computing company. It operates in two segments, Graphics and Compute & Networking. Its products are used in gaming, professional visualization, data center, and automotive markets. TSM
manufactures and sells integrated circuits and semiconductors. It also offers customer service, account management, and engineering services.
NVDA has gained 42% over the past three months, while TSM has returned 5.5%. Year-to-date (YTD), NVDA has gained 136%, while TSM has only gained 12.5%. Which of these two stocks is the better buy
for 2022? Let’s find out.
Latest Developments
On December 16, 2021, TSM introduced its N4X process technology tailored for the demanding workloads of high-performance computing products. “The demands of the HPC segment are unrelenting, and
TSMC has not only tailored our ‘X’ semiconductor technologies to unleash ultimate performance but has also combined it with our 3DFabric advanced packaging technologies to offer the best HPC
platform,” senior vice president of business Development at TSMC said.
On November 9, 2021, NVDA introduced NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin, the world’s smallest, most powerful, and energy-efficient AI supercomputer. Deepu Talla, vice president and general manager of
embedded and edge computing at NVDA, said, “As robotics and embedded computing transform manufacturing, healthcare, retail, transportation, smart cities and other essential sectors of the
economy, the demand for processing continues to surge.”
Recent Financial Results
TSM’s revenues increased 16.3% year-over-year to $14.88 billion for the fiscal third quarter ended September 30, 2021. The company’s operating passive income grew 14% year-over-year to $6.14
billion, while its net passive income came in at $5.61 billion representing a 13.9% year-over-year increase. Also, its EPS came in at $0.22, up 13.8% year-over-year.
NVDA’s revenues increased 50% year-over-year to $7.10 billion for the fiscal third quarter ended October 31, 2021. The company’s non-GAAP operating passive income grew 70% year-over-year to $3.39
billion, while its non-GAAP net passive income came in at $2.97 billion representing a 62% year-over-year increase. Also, its non-GAAP EPS came in at $1.17, up 60% year-over-year.
Past and Expected Financial Performance
TSM’s revenue and EPS grew at CAGRs of 14% and 17.6%, respectively, over the past three years. Analysts expect TSM’s revenue to increase 24.9% in the current year and 30.2% next year. The
company’s EPS is expected to grow 21.2% in the current year and 20.2% next year. Moreover, its EPS is expected to grow at a rate of 15.8% per annum over the next five years.
On the other hand, NVDA’s revenue and EPS grew at CAGRs of 25% and 20.1%, respectively, over the past three years. The company’s revenue is expected to increase 60% in the current year and 19%
next year. Its EPS is expected to grow 73.6% in the current year and 20% next year. Also, NVDA’s EPS is expected to grow at a rate of 39.4% per annum over the next five years.
Profitability
TSM’s trailing-12-month revenue is 2.24 times what NVDA generates. TSM is also more profitable with an EBITDA margin and net passive income margin of 68% and 37.9% compared to NVDA’s 40.2% and
33.8%, respectively.
However, NVDA’s ROE, ROA, and ROTC of 41.94%, 15.93%, and 18.34% are higher than TSM’s 29.67%, 13.08%, and 16%, respectively.
Valuation
In terms of forward non-GAAP P/E, NVDA is currently trading at 68.4x, 131.5% higher than TSM’s 29.55x. Moreover, NVDA’s forward EV/EBITDA ratio of 66.58x is 362.7% higher than TSM’s 14.39x.
So, TSM is relatively affordable here.
POWR Ratings
TSM has an overall rating of B, which equates to a Buy in our proprietary POWR Ratings system. On the other hand, NVDA has an overall rating of C, which translates to Neutral. The POWR Ratings
are calculated considering 118 different factors, with each factor weighted to an optimal degree.
TSM has a grade of B for Stability, in sync with its beta of 0.99, while NVDA has a Stability grade of D in sync with its beta of 1.44.
Moreover, TSM has a grade of A for Quality. This is justified given TSM’s 37.93% trailing-12-month net passive income margin, 492.6% higher than the industry average of 6.40%. On the other hand,
NVDA has a Quality grade of B.
Of the 98 stocks in the A-rated Semiconductor & Wireless Chip industry, TSM is ranked #51. In comparison, NVDA is ranked #67.
Beyond what I’ve stated above, we have also rated the stocks for Growth, Value, Momentum, and Sentiment. Click here to view all the TSM ratings. Also, get all the NVDA ratings here.
The Winner
The semiconductor space is booming due to the continued increase in digital transformation. While both TSM and NVDA are expected to gain in 2022, I believe it is better to bet on TSM now because
of its lower valuation and higher profit margin.
Our research shows that odds of success increase when one invests in stocks with an Overall Rating of Strong Buy or Buy. View all the other top-rated stocks in the Semiconductor & Wireless
Chip industry here.
NVDA shares were trading at $308.45 per share on Monday afternoon, up $12.05 (+4.07%). Year-to-date, NVDA has gained 136.44%, versus a 28.99% rise in the benchmark S&P 500 index during the
same period.

Walmart Hit on Chinese Social Media Over Xinjiang Products (Tue, 28 Dec 2021)
Retail titan Walmart ( WMT ) - Get Walmart Inc. Report has drawn angry reactions on Chinese social media amid accusations it has stopped carrying products from Xinjiang in its China-based
stores.
Last week, President Joe Biden signed a law that forbids imports to the U.S. from Xinjiang, except when companies can prove the products weren’t produced by forced labor. China has violently

Chinese social media users blasted the Bentonville, Ark., company on Friday, saying they couldn’t find products that usually come from Xinjiang on Walmart and Sam’s Club online outlets in China,
The Wall Street Journal reported.
A Walmart spokesperson declined to comment to The Journal.
The paper found no Xinjiang products on Walmart and Sam’s Club’s China online stores. But it did find Xinjiang-sourced goods in a Beijing Walmart.
Morningstar analyst Zain Akbari puts fair value for Walmart at $145.
“Wide-moat Walmart saw strong fiscal 2022 third-quarter results (4% revenue growth versus our sub-2% expectation) as customers looked to the chain for value amid rising prices throughout the

“We believe the updraft is temporary, leading us to maintain our long-term targets of low-single-digit sales growth and mid-single-digit adjusted operating margins over the next decade. However,
our near-term estimates should rise.”
He raised his fair-value estimate from $136. But, “We still suggest investors await a more attractive entry point,” Akbari said.
Still, given the company’s pricing power and growing e-commerce presence, “we believe Walmart is well positioned to withstand a turbulent retail environment,” he said.
Walmart stock recently traded around $140, up 0.4%. The stock has traded flat for the past three months. The 52-week high, set in mid-August, is $152.57.

Chinese citizens slam Musk online after space station near-misses (Tue, 28 Dec 2021)
Chinese citizens slam Musk online after space station near-misses
28 December, 2021, 10:10 am
BEIJING, Dec 27 (Reuters) – Chinese citizens lashed out online against billionaire Tesla (TSLA.O) founder Elon Musk’s space ambitions on Monday after China complained that its space station was
forced to take evasive action to avoid collision with satellites launched by Musk’s Starlink programme.
The satellites from Starlink Internet Services, a division of Musk’s SpaceX aerospace company, had two “close encounters” with the Chinese space station on July 1 and Oct. 21, according to a
document submitted by China earlier this month to the U.N.’s space agency.
“For safety reasons, the China Space Station implemented preventive collision avoidance control,” China said in a document published on the website of the United Nations Office for Outer Space
Affairs.
The complaints have not been independently verified. SpaceX did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
In a post on China’s Twitter-like Weibo microblogging platform on Monday, one user said Starlink’s satellites were “just a pile of space junk”, while another described them as “American space
warfare weapons”.
With nearly 30,000 satellites and other debris believed to be orbiting the planet, scientists have urged governments to share data to reduce the risk of catastrophic space collisions.
“The risks of Starlink are being gradually exposed, the whole human race will pay for their business activities,” a user posting under the name Chen Haiying said on Weibo.
U.S. space agency NASA was forced to abruptly call off a spacewalk at the end of November, citing risks posed by space debris. Musk tweeted in response that some Starlink satellite orbits had
been adjusted to reduce the possibility of collisions.
China began constructing the space station in April with the launch of Tianhe, the largest of its three modules. The station is expected to be completed by the end of 2022 after four crewed
missions.
Musk has become a well-known figure in China, though Tesla’s electric-vehicle business has come under growing scrutiny from regulators, especially after a customer climbed on top of a Tesla car
at the Shanghai auto show in April to protest against poor customer service.

NVIDIA vs. Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing: Which Chip Stock is a Better Buy? (Tue, 28 Dec 2021)
As digital transformation picks up pace, the demand for semiconductor chips should keep rising because of their need to run advanced technological devices and electric vehicles (EVs). This,
coupled with the rising prices of chips due to the global shortage, should result in a solid upside for the semiconductor industry in 2022. NVIDIA (NVDA) and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing
(TSM) should benefit from the backdrop. But which of these two stocks is a better buy now?.
The rapid adoption of hybrid working and electric vehicles has increased the demand for semiconductors. While supply constraints have impacted the industry, the strong demand environment has
allowed companies to raise prices for their chips and generate substantial revenues.
The industry is expected to grow with the rising adoption of advanced technologies such as the internet of things (IoT), 5G, and artificial intelligence (AI). According to a Fortune Business
Insights report, the global semiconductor market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 8.6% between 2021 and 2028.
With this in mind, today I’ll analyze and compare two semiconductor giants: NVIDIA Corporation (NVDA) and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited (TSM). NVDA operates worldwide as a
visual computing company. It operates in two segments, Graphics and Compute & Networking. Its products are used in gaming, professional visualization, data center, and automotive markets. TSM
manufactures and sells integrated circuits and semiconductors. It also offers customer service, account management, and engineering services.
NVDA has gained 42% over the past three months, while TSM has returned 5.5%. Year-to-date (YTD), NVDA has gained 136%, while TSM has only gained 12.5%. Which of these two stocks is the better buy
for 2022? Let’s find out.
Latest Developments
On December 16, 2021, TSM introduced its N4X process technology tailored for the demanding workloads of high-performance computing products. “The demands of the HPC segment are unrelenting, and
TSMC has not only tailored our ‘X’ semiconductor technologies to unleash ultimate performance but has also combined it with our 3DFabric advanced packaging technologies to offer the best HPC
platform,” senior vice president of business Development at TSMC said.
On November 9, 2021, NVDA introduced NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin, the world’s smallest, most powerful, and energy-efficient AI supercomputer. Deepu Talla, vice president and general manager of
embedded and edge computing at NVDA, said, “As robotics and embedded computing transform manufacturing, healthcare, retail, transportation, smart cities and other essential sectors of the
economy, the demand for processing continues to surge.”
Recent Financial Results
TSM’s revenues increased 16.3% year-over-year to $14.88 billion for the fiscal third quarter ended September 30, 2021. The company’s operating passive income grew 14% year-over-year to $6.14
billion, while its net passive income came in at $5.61 billion representing a 13.9% year-over-year increase. Also, its EPS came in at $0.22, up 13.8% year-over-year.
NVDA’s revenues increased 50% year-over-year to $7.10 billion for the fiscal third quarter ended October 31, 2021. The company’s non-GAAP operating passive income grew 70% year-over-year to $3.39
billion, while its non-GAAP net passive income came in at $2.97 billion representing a 62% year-over-year increase. Also, its non-GAAP EPS came in at $1.17, up 60% year-over-year.
Past and Expected Financial Performance
TSM’s revenue and EPS grew at CAGRs of 14% and 17.6%, respectively, over the past three years. Analysts expect TSM’s revenue to increase 24.9% in the current year and 30.2% next year. The
company’s EPS is expected to grow 21.2% in the current year and 20.2% next year. Moreover, its EPS is expected to grow at a rate of 15.8% per annum over the next five years.
On the other hand, NVDA’s revenue and EPS grew at CAGRs of 25% and 20.1%, respectively, over the past three years. The company’s revenue is expected to increase 60% in the current year and 19%
next year. Its EPS is expected to grow 73.6% in the current year and 20% next year. Also, NVDA’s EPS is expected to grow at a rate of 39.4% per annum over the next five years.
Profitability
TSM’s trailing-12-month revenue is 2.24 times what NVDA generates. TSM is also more profitable with an EBITDA margin and net passive income margin of 68% and 37.9% compared to NVDA’s 40.2% and
33.8%, respectively.
However, NVDA’s ROE, ROA, and ROTC of 41.94%, 15.93%, and 18.34% are higher than TSM’s 29.67%, 13.08%, and 16%, respectively.
Valuation
In terms of forward non-GAAP P/E, NVDA is currently trading at 68.4x, 131.5% higher than TSM’s 29.55x. Moreover, NVDA’s forward EV/EBITDA ratio of 66.58x is 362.7% higher than TSM’s 14.39x.
So, TSM is relatively affordable here.
POWR Ratings
TSM has an overall rating of B, which equates to a Buy in our proprietary POWR Ratings system. On the other hand, NVDA has an overall rating of C, which translates to Neutral. The POWR Ratings
are calculated considering 118 different factors, with each factor weighted to an optimal degree.
TSM has a grade of B for Stability, in sync with its beta of 0.99, while NVDA has a Stability grade of D in sync with its beta of 1.44.
Moreover, TSM has a grade of A for Quality. This is justified given TSM’s 37.93% trailing-12-month net passive income margin, 492.6% higher than the industry average of 6.40%. On the other hand,
NVDA has a Quality grade of B.
Of the 98 stocks in the A-rated Semiconductor & Wireless Chip industry, TSM is ranked #51. In comparison, NVDA is ranked #67.
Beyond what I’ve stated above, we have also rated the stocks for Growth, Value, Momentum, and Sentiment. Click here to view all the TSM ratings. Also, get all the NVDA ratings here.
The Winner
The semiconductor space is booming due to the continued increase in digital transformation. While both TSM and NVDA are expected to gain in 2022, I believe it is better to bet on TSM now because
of its lower valuation and higher profit margin.
Our research shows that odds of success increase when one invests in stocks with an Overall Rating of Strong Buy or Buy. View all the other top-rated stocks in the Semiconductor & Wireless
Chip industry here.
NVDA shares were trading at $308.45 per share on Monday afternoon, up $12.05 (+4.07%). Year-to-date, NVDA has gained 136.44%, versus a 28.99% rise in the benchmark S&P 500 index during the
same period.
