ASML Holding

ASML is the leader in photolithography systems used in manufacturing semiconductors. Photolithography is the process in which a light source is used to expose circuit patterns from a photo mask onto a semiconductor wafer. The latest technological advances in this segment allow chipmakers to continually increase the number of transistors on the same area of silicon, with lithography historically representing a high portion of the cost of making cutting-edge chips. ASML outsources the manufacturing of most of its parts, acting like an assembler. ASML's main clients are TSMC, Samsung, and Intel.

JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon issued a stark message to European leaders this week: the continent is steadily falling behind the United States, and financial markets now expose just how wide <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/eurozone">the gap has become.</a>
At a conference in Dublin organized by Ireland's foreign ministry, Dimon warned that Europe is slipping in the global economic race. Over the past 10 to 15 years, he noted, the region's share of global output has dropped sharply compared to the U.S.
"Europe has gone from 90% U.S. GDP to 65% over 10 or 15 years. That's not good. You're losing," Dimon said.
He pointed to sluggish growth, outdated regulation, and insufficient investment as key reasons why the EU is falling behind both the U.S. and China.
While Dimon's focus was on economic differences in terms of GDP, the numbers coming out of stock markets reveal an even deeper structural divide between the U.S. and Europe.

"We've got this huge, strong market and our companies are big and successful, have huge kinds of scale that are global. You have that, but less and less," he said.
Dimon's comments add to growing concern across the continent. Last year, former European Central Bank chief Mario Draghi called for €800 billion per year in industrial investment to help Europe remain globally competitive.
Yet, despite repeated calls for reform, European stock markets continue to lag behind as U.S. firms dominate in scale, innovation and investor interest.

Magnificent 7 Crush EU Giants—Jamie Dimon Tells Europe: 'You're Losing'

<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/semiconductor">Semiconductor</a> manufacturing equipment giant Lam Research (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LRCX#NASDAQ">LRCX</a>) has seen its stock surge a remarkable 40% year-to-date, significantly outperforming the Nasdaq 100 index&#8217;s nearly 9% gain. 
This ascent is largely propelled by the rapidly expanding artificial intelligence (AI) and data center boom, which is driving unprecedented demand for advanced chips and, consequently, the sophisticated equipment required to produce them. 
Lam Research&#8217;s pivotal role in manufacturing advanced chips for AI workloads and high-bandwidth memory (HBM) places it at the forefront of this technological revolution.
Also Read: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/04/44841545/applied-materials-lam-research-kla-drop-amid-fresh-trade-war-fears-revenue-risk" rel="noreferrer noopener">Applied Materials, Lam Research, KLA Drop Amid Fresh Trade War Fears, Revenue Risk</a>
The company&#8217;s strong performance is further strengthened by strategic investments and an expanding global footprint. However, this growth narrative is partially tempered by ongoing concerns surrounding the Trump administration&#8217;s tariff policies, broader geopolitical tensions, and macroeconomic uncertainties.
Despite these headwinds, Lam Research is currently trading above its 50-day moving average of $86.81, having gained 50% in the last three months, easily surpassing the Nasdaq 100&#8217;s over 24% rise during the same period.
The company&#8217;s financial results underscore this momentum. On April 23, Lam Research stock climbed nearly 5% after reporting <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/04/44965339/lam-research-stock-climbs-after-strong-q3-results-q4-guidance-above-estimates">third-quarter revenue</a> of $4.72 billion, a 24.41% year-over-year increase that beat analyst consensus estimates of $4.59 billion. 
The adjusted gross margin for the quarter stood at 49%. Looking ahead, Lam Research anticipates fourth-quarter revenue to range between $4.7 billion and $5.3 billion, well above the $4.45 billion estimate, signaling continued confidence in its near-term outlook.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Macroeconomic Tailwinds</h2>
Lam Research is strategically positioned to capitalize on recent policy shifts aimed at strengthening the U.S. chip industry. President Donald Trump&#8217;s &#8220;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46324642/arm-rides-ai-boom-and-outperforming-market">Big Beautiful Bill</a>,&#8221; for instance, proposes an increase in the semiconductor investment tax credit from 25% to 30% through 2026. 
This incentive is expected to encourage chipmakers to expand domestic production, directly driving greater demand for Lam&#8217;s essential manufacturing equipment. Additionally, the bill ends the $7,500 EV tax credit after September 30, which may impact demand/pricing in the short run.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Analysts Weigh In</h2>
Industry experts are increasingly bullish on Lam Research. In May, CNBC&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/05/45466164/jim-cramer-prefers-autozone-over-rival-buy-the-one-thats-not-going-to-stock-split">Jim Cramer</a> publicly recommended Lam Research over key competitors ASML Holding (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ASML#NASDAQ">ASML</a>) and Applied Materials (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMAT#NASDAQ">AMAT</a>).
This sentiment was echoed on June 9 by Bank of America Securities analyst Vivek Arya, who highlighted Lam Research&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst-color/25/06/45845825/ai-momentum-powers-nvidia-arm-and-chip-supply-chain-in-bofa-recap">improving outlook</a> at a recent tech conference. 
Arya noted that Lam, alongside Applied Materials and KLA Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KLAC#NASDAQ">KLAC</a>), is experiencing strong momentum in leading-edge foundry/logic (F/L) and advanced DRAM wafer fab equipment (WFE). 
This robust demand is helping to offset softness in the Chinese market and trailing-edge spending, with Arya projecting mid-single-digit year-over-year growth for 2025.
Arya emphasized Lam&#8217;s early-stage NAND upgrades across several customers, identifying this as a significant $40 billion multi-year opportunity. 
He also underscored the company&#8217;s strong positioning in the crucial DDR5/HBM markets. Based on this optimistic outlook, Arya raised his price target on Lam Research to $100 from $90.
In comparison, Arya also increased his price target for KLA Corp to $900 from $825, citing strong 2nm/GAA investment trends, expansion into advanced packaging markets, and KLA&#8217;s top-tier profitability. 
Interestingly, all three vendors view China as &#8220;de-risked&#8221; for 2025 despite ongoing geopolitical tensions, expecting the region to contribute 25%–30% of their overall sales.
While Lam Research&#8217;s year-to-date performance is strong, its peers have also seen significant gains: ASML is up 16%, Applied Materials 22%, and KLA Corp over 47%.
Price Action: LRCX stock is trading lower by 0.02% to $101.04 at last check Friday.

Why Lam Research Outpaced Market With 40% Gain In 2025

ASML Holding (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ASML#NASDAQ">ASML</a>) has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/semiconductor" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">adjusted its inclusion</a> and diversity targets in the U.S. to align with new regulations from the Trump administration.
This decision comes as the administration has imposed penalties on certain diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives, deeming them discriminatory and detrimental to merit-based systems.
Despite these changes in the U.S., ASML&#8217;s diversity and key performance targets will remain in effect for all other markets. The company&#8217;s primary DEI goals include increasing women in senior leadership to 14% by 2026 and targeting 24% representation of women in new hires and promotions by 2025.

The U.S. constitutes a significant portion of ASML&#8217;s global workforce, with 8,480 full-time equivalent employees out of a total of 44,027, as cited by Reuters from the company&#8217;s latest annual report.
Even with the policy shift, the chip equipment manufacturer affirmed to Reuters its continued commitment to hiring the most qualified candidates based on their merit.
This development follows previous restrictions imposed by Washington, which have prevented companies like ASML and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSM#NYSE">TSM</a>) from exporting advanced semiconductor technology to China, citing national security concerns. Additionally, the Trump administration&#8217;s tariff policies have spurred these companies to bolster their manufacturing presence within the U.S.
ASML&#8217;s stock has shown strong performance this year, surging 16% year-to-date and outperforming the Nasdaq 100&#8217;s 9% close. The Netherlands-based company is a leader in developing <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/46110746/dutch-giant-asml-unveils-plans-for-next-gen-chip-tech" rel="noreferrer noopener">advanced lithography machines</a> crucial for next-generation chip production.
In a forward-looking move, Executive Vice President Jos Benschop stated that ASML and its exclusive optics partner, Carl Zeiss, are exploring designs for single-exposure circuit printing at 5-nanometer resolution. This advanced technology is aimed at meeting industry demands starting around 2035.
However, the adoption of ASML&#8217;s <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/46110746/dutch-giant-asml-unveils-plans-for-next-gen-chip-tech" rel="noreferrer noopener">high numerical aperture</a> (NA) machines for advanced chip nodes is still being evaluated by chipmakers such as Taiwan Semiconductor.
Due to the substantial costs involved, Kevin Zhang from Taiwan Semiconductor has indicated that these high-NA EUV tools would not be used for the A16 node, with the company preferring lower-NA EUV solutions.
In contrast, Intel (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>) plans to incorporate high-NA EUV machines for its 14A process, aiming to boost its foundry business, though it may also continue to offer older technologies to its customers.
Analyst sentiment towards ASML remains positive, with fourteen analysts setting a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/ASML/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">consensus price target</a> of $836.71. Notably, JP Morgan issued the highest target of $1,100 on January 30, 2025. More recent targets from Wells Fargo and Susquehanna average $898.33, suggesting a potential 13.42% upside from current levels.
Price Action: ASML stock is trading lower by 0.65% to $796.86 premarket at last check Friday.

Wells Fargo Maintains Overweight on ASML Holding, Raises Price Target to $890

French President Emmanuel Macron sharply criticized powerful nations using tariffs as &#8220;blackmail&#8221; instruments on Monday, delivering his strongest rebuke as the European Union scrambles to reach a deal with the United States before a looming July 9 deadline.
What Happened: Speaking at the International Conference on Financing for Development in Seville, Spain, Macron called trade wars an &#8220;aberration&#8221; without directly naming Trump or the United States. His comments came as EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen warned that &#8220;all options remain on the table&#8221; in ongoing negotiations with Washington.
According to Reuters, Macron said, &#8220;we need to restore freedom and equity to international trade, much more than barriers and tariffs, which are devised by the strongest, and which are often used as instruments of blackmail, not at all as instruments of rebalancing&#8221;
Trump unveiled sweeping global tariffs in April, threatening duties ranging from 10% to 50% on imports before partially reversing course with 90-day extensions. The current EU tariff structure includes 10% on most goods, 25% on automobiles, and 50% on steel and aluminum. Without a deal by July 9, all EU products could face 50% tariffs.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt rejected Macron&#8217;s characterization, calling tariffs &#8220;an effective tool to rebuild U.S. manufacturing.&#8221; She said Trump &#8220;is going to do what&#8217;s right for our people and our country,&#8221; according to the report.
Why It Matters: The tariff dispute has already roiled European markets. In May, when <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/05/45585283/trump-tariff-threat-hits-europe-stocks-sink-as-50-duties-loom">Trump threatened</a> 50% EU duties, the Euro STOXX 50 dropped 3%, with major exporters taking heavy losses. Deutsche Bank AG (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DB#NYSE">DB</a>) fell 6.1%, while luxury brands like LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton SE (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LVMUY#OTC">LVMUY</a>), which derives 25% of revenue from the U.S., faced significant pressure.
Technology ETFs with European exposure, including the iShares Europe ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IEV#NYSE">IEV</a>) and Vanguard FTSE Europe ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VGK#NYSE">VGK</a>), remain vulnerable to escalating trade tensions.

Emmanuel Macron Calls Tariffs 'Blackmail,'  White House Shoots Back Saying Trump Is 'Doing What's Right For Our People'

Time Magazine&#8217;s annual 100 Most Influential Companies list for 2025 includes many companies investors are familiar with, with numerous names originating from the growing <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/artificial-intelligence">artificial intelligence sector.</a>
The <a href="https://time.com/7297630/time-reveals-the-2025-time100-most-influential-companies-in-the-world/">list</a> seeks to honor the top businesses that are helping "chart an essential path forward."
"No single data point or financial metric makes a TIME100 Company. Instead, we looked at a mosaic of qualities, studying impact, innovation, ambition, and success, each in the forms that take shape today. And as we say for all TIME100 projects: influence comes in many forms, for better and for worse," Time editors said of the list.
 The Public Companies: Similar to the list of the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/25/04/44854679/time-100-most-influential-people-includes-elon-musk-mark-zuckerberg-alex-karp-and-more-public-company-ceos">Most Influential People</a> that Time published earlier this year, the list of influential companies includes top tech, AI, crypto, and healthcare names that are experiencing impressive growth and bringing life-changing technology to consumers or other companies.

Why It's Important: Nearly half of this year's list includes companies that are publicly traded or part of publicly traded companies. This means investors can get exposure to what Time considers some of the most influential companies in the world.
Some of the companies are newer to the public market, which could mean that the 50+ companies that are not yet public could be among IPOs to watch for in the second half of 2025 and beyond.
Some of the most recognizable private companies on this year's list include OpenAI, Polymarket, Anthropic, Anduril, Beast Industries and SpaceX.
When seeking companies that can drive revenue growth and gain customer and consumer adoption, the most influential lists can be a valuable starting point for investors.

ASML shares are trading lower after Jefferies downgraded the stock from Buy to Hold.

Jefferies analyst Janardan Menon downgrades ASML Holding (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ASML#NASDAQ">ASML</a>) from Buy to Hold.

Jefferies Downgrades ASML Holding to Hold

<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/chip-stocks" rel="noreferrer noopener">Semiconductor equipment maker</a> ASML Holding (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ASML#NASDAQ">ASML</a>) is working to develop advanced lithography machines to serve the next-generation chip industry.
The Netherlands-based company and its exclusive optics partner Carl Zeiss are studying designs for machines that could print circuits with a&nbsp;resolution like 5 nanometers in a single exposure, Nikkei Asia <a target="_blank" href="https://asia.nikkei.com/Editor-s-Picks/Interview/ASML-commits-to-developing-even-more-advanced-chipmaking-tools" rel="noreferrer noopener">reported</a> on Thursday, citing ASML executive vice president Jos Benschop.
They expect the technology to meet the industry&#8217;s needs from 2035 and beyond.
Also Read: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/05/45570606/asml-bets-big-on-high-powered-chip-tools-as-taiwan-semiconductor-intel-micron-line-up" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">ASML Bets Big On High-Powered Chip Tools As Taiwan Semiconductor, Intel, Micron Line Up</a>
Dutch giant ASML&#8217;s stock has faced significant headwinds, plunging over 27% in the last 12 months. This decline is largely attributable to mounting geopolitical tensions and pervasive macroeconomic uncertainty impacting the global technology sector.
The company has seen its market value diminish by over $130 billion within a year, primarily due to export restrictions to China imposed by the Dutch government, influenced by U.S. pressure aimed at limiting China&#8217;s access to advanced chip technology. Additionally, broader uncertainty surrounding U.S. tariffs on goods from various countries has contributed to investor apprehension.3
Consequently, multiple Wall Street firms have <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/ASML/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">downgraded their ratings</a> for ASML and revised their price forecasts, reflecting concerns about the company&#8217;s immediate growth prospects given the restrictive trade environment.
Meanwhile, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSM#NYSE">TSM</a>) <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/media/25/05/45653729/taiwan-semiconductor-and-intel-weigh-benefits-of-asmls-pricey-chipmaking-equipment" rel="noreferrer noopener">and other chipmakers</a> are still assessing ASML&#8217;s high numerical aperture (NA) machines for use in their most advanced nodes.
Despite the nearly $400 million price tag, almost double that of other equipment, these machines have yet to prove faster or more beneficial than existing chip fabrication tools.
In a notable development, Kevin Zhang from Taiwan Semiconductor rejected using ASML&#8217;s high-NA machines for its A16 node, citing cost concerns, and instead considered using low-NA EUV machines to achieve scaling advantages.
Conversely, Intel Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>) plans to adopt the High-NA EUV machine for its 14A process to strengthen its contract chip business and better compete with Taiwan Semiconductor. However, the company noted that customers could still opt for older, well-tested technologies.
Price Action: ASML stock concluded Wednesday&#8217;s trading session higher by 0.23%, closing at $815.24.

Shares of chip stocks are trading higher amid overall market strength on Israel-Iran ceasefire hopes.

Roundhill Investments launched five new <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs">WeeklyPay ETFs</a>, each aiming to deliver weekly dividends without sacrificing upside or using options.
The new additions include:
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Roundhill AMZN WeeklyPay ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZW#BATS">AMZW</a>), following Amazon (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>), </li>
<li>Roundhill BRKB WeeklyPay ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRKW#BATS">BRKW</a>), following Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>), </li>
<li>Roundhill HOOD WeeklyPay ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HOOW#BATS">HOOW</a>), following Robinhood (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HOOD#NASDAQ">HOOD</a>)</li>
<li>Roundhill META WeeklyPay ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/METW#BATS">METW</a>), following Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) </li>
<li>Roundhill NFLX WeeklyPay ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NFLW#BATS">NFLW</a>), following Netflix (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NFLX#NASDAQ">NFLX</a>)</li>
</ul>
These launches bring the WeeklyPay family to 10 ETFs. Each fund aims to capture 120% of the aggregate return of its underlying security each calendar week, as well as a regular distribution.
That&#8217;s a clear divergence from the way most single-stock income ETFs operate, usually through selling covered calls, which exchange upside potential for option premiums. And with more than $15 billion flowing into such a strategy, the company obviously believes there is room for disruption.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A Different Kind Of Income ETF</h2>
Instead of depending on derivatives, Roundhill&#8217;s WeeklyPay ETFs employ leverage to enhance returns, aiming at 1.2x the performance of the underlying stock on a weekly basis. That multiplier, naturally, involves risk, particularly in downward environments, but it also avoids having investors forego gains in a bull market, as with covered call strategies.
The money also makes weekly payments, which might be enticing for income-oriented investors tired of the slow dribble of dividends.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">From Tech Giants To Meme Stocks</h2>
Roundhill&#8217;s current roster already boasts single-stock ETFs tied to such names as Apple (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>), Nvidia (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>), Tesla (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>), and Palantir (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NASDAQ">PLTR</a>). But the company isn&#8217;t yet done.
It has applied for additional WeeklyPay ETFs tracking an eclectic roster: from blue chips such as Microsoft (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) and Alphabet (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>), to semicon-weighty names such as AMD (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMD#NASDAQ">AMD</a>) and ASML Holding (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ASML#NASDAQ">ASML</a>), to speculative darlings such as Reddit (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RDDT#NYSE">RDDT</a>), DraftKings (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DKNG#NASDAQ">DKNG</a>), and MicroStrategy (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSTR#NASDAQ">MSTR</a>).
The message is plain: Roundhill is looking to track the entire gamut of investor demand—tech, momentum, income, and high-risk stocks—all under one umbrella.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What To Watch</h2>
While the structure has upside potential, it&#8217;s not without its cautionary tales. Leveraged exposure, even at a 1.2x rate, amplifies gains and losses as much as it amplifies the underlying. And while the absence of options sidesteps issues of premium decay and call-away risk, investors should still look at how distributions are made and what level of volatility to anticipate.

Shares of chip stocks are trading lower amid reports indicating the Trump administration is planning wider China tech restrictions.

ASML Holding NV (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ASML#NASDAQ">ASML</a>) shares rose 1.05% to $754.35 on Thursday, gaining in sympathy with Nvidia Corp, which surged nearly 6% following blockbuster first-quarter results that exceeded Wall Street expectations. Nvidia's earnings fueled a broader semiconductor rally, lifting peer stocks like ASML.
What To Know: Nvidia <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/price-target/25/05/45668727/nvidia-stock-is-surging-thursday-whats-fueling-the-move">reported</a> first-quarter revenue of $44.1 billion, a 69% year-over-year increase, beating consensus estimates of $43.2 billion. Adjusted earnings per share reached $0.96, excluding charges tied to U.S. export restrictions on sales to China. The company's data center segment led the charge with $39.1 billion in revenue, up 73%, fueled by explosive demand for AI infrastructure.
CEO Jensen Huang <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/05/45657660/nvidia-q1-highlights-china-export-ban-hits-results-but-jensen-huang-says-demand-incredibly-strong">emphasized</a> global AI expansion, noting that countries now view AI computing as critical infrastructure. Despite a projected $8 billion revenue hit from H20 chip restrictions, Nvidia guided second-quarter revenue at $45 billion, surpassing estimates.
Analysts responded bullishly, with Wedbush projecting a $4–5 trillion future market cap. The AI boom also <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/05/45671751/amd-stock-rises-on-nvidias-blowout-quarter-and-ai-momentum">strengthens expectations</a> for chip equipment suppliers like ASML, which manufactures advanced lithography machines critical to producing Nvidia's high-performance chips.
Investors see Nvidia's dominance as a bellwether for the sector, and ASML is poised to benefit as AI demand surges globally.
