AEX (+0.5%) managed to close higher after a flat day in the middle of earnings season. AMX (+ 0.7%) Share gently.

Only the small caps of AScX (-0.5%) failed to raise the index above yesterday’s closing price. A lump on the leg is also wax CTP (-6.8%), which is downwardly anomalous. The market reacts to the acquisition of Deutsche Industrie REIT. The receipt says 800 million euros.

Markets around the world were strong today. For example, the Germans (+1.1%) and the French (+0.9%) have performed satisfactorily, and Wall Street is still in the green at the moment. American Consumer Confidence is the most important economy in the United States today, and this number in turn provides confidence.

Economists had expected consumer confidence to decline from 109.8 in September to 108.3 this month. Instead, consumer confidence rose to 113.8 in October. So a stroke of luck.

ASMI numbers

ASMI just released its third-quarter numbers. Turnover increased by 38% to €432 million, which is better than the €400-430 million that the company had previously relied on. Operating margin was 47.2% and order flow was 624.5 million euros. The flow of orders is therefore reasonably in line with its own expectations, because the management has assumed more than 600 million euros.

However, it is very important to look at the future outlook with shredders. ASMI forecasts turnover of between 470 and 500 million euros for the fourth quarter. This is reasonably in line with ING’s estimates, as the lead bank relied on a turnover of €484 million. However, the consensus was €456 million, so the outlook is definitely better than expected.

It is hard to estimate whether that will be enough for tomorrow morning plus. ASMI is the best-performing stock within AEX this year with a profit of 96%. So there is all the necessary good news in stock. The stock is currently trading at 29 times the expected 2022 earnings (Niels Koerts).

Especially new orders fly # ASMI, but some pressure on results and margins in the third quarter. The concern mentions ongoing supply chain issues, and MSS is right there. So more Tweet embed

But where Snap has had a lot of trouble with this before and made a big slide in the stock market, it wasn’t bad in Facebook.

EPOSCO is valued as a growing company

“I look for (-4%) The absolute origin of damarisk. The electric bus product is a solid growth story, but it’s also listed as such,” IEX analyst Martin Crum wrote in an analysis of his new Ebusco brand. It points to the high price of the 88-year FY22 forward.

So it is a growing company. Thus, investors will not have to rely on dividends in the coming years, and the group has already announced that it will issue another issue in 2023. This makes the stake unsuitable for every investor.

Besi is increasing production capacity for this technology significantly. The increasing importance of the top-of-the-line chip assembly is underlined by Intel’s move to build an assembly plant. in the United States “. So strong growth is expected from 2022.
