KeyBanc Upgrades $INTC to Overweight from Sector Weight, PT $60 Analyst comments: "We expect outsized data center demand from hyperscalers this year to be a significant tailwind for Data Center and AI. Our checks indicate INTC is almost sold out for the year in server CPU, and given the strength in demand, the company is considering a 10-15% ASP increase. We are seeing significant progress being made on foundry with 18A yields improving to over 60% and good enough to ramp Panther Lake. While not best in class, as TSMC was at 70-80% when it launched 2nm, with INTC’s aspirations of being the #2 foundry supplier, 60%+ yield is significantly better than SF2 at Samsung Foundry, which we believe is less than 40%. Our checks indicate Intel Foundry Services has landed Apple as a customer on 18A for low-end M-series processors for MacBooks and iPads, which is expected to go into production in 2027. Additionally, we believe INTC is in discussions with Apple to use 14A to support low-end mobile A-series processors for iPhones in 2029."

Madara Cosmetics $MDARA management said they have something exciting to announce in H1 webinar I assumed it was new markets. b2b subscription based service for hotels was not in my bingo card. Interesting if they get traction in this segment, but gotta compliment the move. image
Radio Paradise served this wonderful cover of one of most recognizable Tears of Fears songs "Head over Heels" by Japanese Breakfast. New indie artist for me. Way more collected, chill version. image #GLMusicDiscovery #indie
