With a quarterly turnover of €560 million (+36%), the company has reached the top of the latest forecast issued. Margins were lower due to the rapid rise in both parts and personnel costs. A less favorable sales mix would also reduce margins somewhat, according to ASMI. At the bottom of the line, a quarterly profit of €3.28 per share (+48%).

Another Bessie story

Was there this morning too Next to (+1.5%) who opened the books, but those numbers painted a less rosy picture. Weeteling quickly notes that “developing order taking in Besi is very different from that in ASML and ASMI, and it’s kind of challenging.”

“There are also some positives, but the poor outlook means that the presentation of these numbers is much less robust than we expected.” The big question is whether this is a short moment of weakness, or whether it will last longer. You can read all about it in the enlarger PC analysis.

Tesla is on its way to score

Tesla exchanged cryptocurrency for $936 million.

question round

Tomorrow, analyst Nils Quartz and market commentator Arend Jan Kamp will run behind the microphone to record a brand new episode of the IEX InvestorsPodcast. As usual, you can leave your questions in the comments below.

The IEX InvestorsPodcast is aimed at advanced investors. If that’s too much for you, our new podcast called InvestorsBootcamp might be more suitable for you. In collaboration with Niels Koerts, I am making an accessible listening offering that helps people on their way to invest with confidence.

Interests

Market interest rates are dropping in most countries. In the Netherlands, the ten-year interest rate drops by three basis points to 1.54%. The only gainer is Italy, which rose by at least 14 basis points. This is partly due to the resignation of Mario Draghi, who has been Italy’s prime minister since February last year. He has been a symbol of stability, so his resignation brings with it uncertainty, which has driven up interest rates there.
