In 2014, when Lisa Su took over as CEO of Advanced Micro Devices, AMD was on the verge of bankruptcy. Su bet hard on hardware and not only pulled the semiconductor company back from the brink, but also led it to surpass its historical rival, Intel, in market cap. Since the launch of ChatGPT made high-powered chips like AMDs “sexy” again, demand for chips has intensified exponentially, but so has the public spotlight on the industry — including from the federal government.  In a live conversation, at the Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg Center, as part of their inaugural Discovery Series, Kara talks to Su about her strategy in face of the Trump administration's tariff and export control threats, how to safeguard the US in the global AI race, and what she says when male tech leaders brag about the size of their GPUs.

Il sistema bancario italiano è in fermento. Dopo il tentativo di Unicredit di acquisire Commerzbank e Banco Bpm e quello di Banca Ifis di rilevare Illimity, ora è Monte dei Paschi di Siena a lanciare un offerta su Mediobanca. Il brutto anatroccolo vuole comprarsi la più blasonata delle banche italiane. La potenziale fusione di Mps-Mediobanca, rispetto alle altre operazioni, però, ha un carattere più strategico. Infatti, il gruppo senese è sostanzialmente una banca commerciale, mentre Mediobanca è una banca private e un investment-bank, con una ingombrante partecipazione: Assicurazioni Generali.Fatto sta che oggi si è tenuto il cda di Mediobanca e Piazzetta Cuccia ha risposto stizzita ricordando anche gli interessi incrociati dei due protagonisti dell'operazione: Caltagirone e Delfin. Il cda «rigetta» l offerta pubblica di scambio «non concordata» di Mps, ritenuta «fortemente distruttiva di valore». Lo si legge in una nota dell istituto guidato da Alberto Nagel. «L Offerta non è stata concordata ed è da ritenersi ostile e contraria agli interessi di Mediobanca». Facciamo chiarezza con Luca Davi, Il Sole 24 Ore.Deepseek, momento Sputnik cinese o caos programmato? Un'intelligenza artificiale low cost di pechino nella giornata di ieri ha fatto crollare il Nasdaq e innescato un piccolo terremoto nel settore hi tech negli USA nella giornata di ieri. 1000 miliardi bruciati in un giorno. Su8lla scia dei risultati sorprendenti dell'app Deepseek, il colosso dei microchip Nvidia ha perso oltre il 17% in Borsa. In rosso sono finiti a Wall Street Broadcom (-16%), Microsoft (-4%), Micron (-8%) e Advanced Micro Devices (-5%). Sotto pressione Constellation Energy (-12%) e Vistra (-19%), impegnati in progetti energetici per IA. Al contrario, le aziende cinesi collegate a DeepSeek, tra cui Zhejiang Orient Holdings e Zhuhai Huajin Capital, sono salite del 10%. L'app cinese potrebbe rappresentare il momento Sputnik dell'intelligenza artificiale. Questa start up cinese, nata come spin off del fondo di investimento High-Flyer, ha rilasciato un chatbot che ha messo in discussione la leadership occidentale (o meglio, americana) nel settore dell'AI, sgretolando certezze su una presunta superiorità tecnologica che ora potrebbe essere più difficile da dimostrare.

Istat: Pil 2024 allo 0,5%

L'Istat stima che il Pil italiano si appresti a chiudere il 2024 con un progresso dello 0,5%, la metà rispetto alla previsione del governo su cui è stata costruita la legge di bilancio, c'è da dire però che anche Istat aveva previsto a giugno una crescita del +1%. Il dato Istat si allinea a quello diffuso ieri dall'Ocse. Per il 2025 è invece atteso un progresso dello 0,8%, inferiore dello 0,4% rispetto a quanto indicato dal governo Meloni.Secondo l'Istat, l'economia italiana risente nel 2024 della debolezza della domanda interna, in particolare dal lato dell'offerta. La dinamica calante della produzione industriale, alimentata dalla debolezza della economia tedesca, principale mercato di sbocco delle nostre esportazioni e dalla crisi di alcuni comparti produttivi (automotive su tutti), spiega l'Istituto, ha inciso negativamente sugli investimenti fissi lordi e sulle importazioni.Per il 2025, pur permanendo le incertezze di natura geopolitica e i rischi legati a pressioni protezionistiche, si sconta invece una stabilizzazione della domanda mondiale e un leggero rafforzamento del commercio internazionale. I consumi privati beneficerebbero quindi del graduale, anche se parziale, recupero delle retribuzioni e della prosecuzione, pur se a ritmi meno vivaci di quanto osservato di recente, dell'occupazione.Il commento di Mario Deaglio, docente Economia Internazionale Università di Torino ai microfoni di Sebastiano Barisoni.Incognita Intel dopo le dimissioni del CEOL'improvvisa uscita del ceo, Pat Gelsinger, costretto a dimettersi dopo le pressioni del Cda nella giornata di lunedì 2 dicembre, ha posto Intel in una posizione decisamente in bilico, negli ultimi giorni. La società ha comunicato di aver nominato il cfo David Zinsner e la vicepresidente esecutiva Michelle Johnston Holthaus come co-ceo ad interim. L azienda, che stava recuperando brio a Wall Street dopo l elezione di Donald Trump, è ora alle prese con incognite future: un tempo leader nel settore dei semiconduttori, ha faticato a tenere il passo con rivali come Nvidia e Advanced Micro Devices, in particolare nell'intelligenza artificiale. Un mix di rischi e opportunità che hanno dato campo libero alla speculazione sul titolo, che a inizio settimana, nel giro di 24 ore, ha prima guadagnato il 5%, e poi perso il 10%.Sarà importante capire se il nuovo ceo di Intel (ancora sconosciut0) sarà pronto a smantellare un azienda che un tempo dominava il settore dei chip, specie perchè questa mossa complicherebbe la capacità di Intel di ottenere 7,9 miliardi di dollari di sovvenzioni federali nell ambito dello US Chips and Science Act. La componentistica è oggi diventata terreno di battaglia decisivo tanto per lo sviluppo delle nuove tecnologie, quanto per la rivalità tra le grandi potenze, lo dimostrano due svolte avvenute nel settore nella stessa giornata di lunedì. Oltre alle dimissioni di Gelsinger infatti, lunedì è arrivata anche l'annuncio da parte degli Usa di nuovi bandi alle esportazioni verso la Cina. Washington ha aggiunto 140 aziende della Repubblica popolare alla lista di quelle che non possono ricevere le attrezzature per produrre i chip. Le misure, secondo l'amministrazione USA, sono adottate per diminuire le capacità di Pechino di alimentare le proprie ambizioni militari più che per ostacolare lo sviluppo economico della Cina.L'intervento di Alessandro Plateroti, Direttore Newsmondo.it a Focus Economia. Sardegna, per le rinnovabili idoneo l'1% del territorioLa Sardegna ha la sua mappa con le aree idonee per l installazione di impianti per la produzione di energia da fonti rinnovabili: comprenderà circa l 1% del territorio. Ieri il Consiglio regionale ha approvato il Dl 45 (Disposizioni per l individuazione di aree e superfici idonee e non idonee all installazione di impianti a fonti rinnovabili) con 35 voti a favore e 14 contrari. È un atto che chiude un percorso iniziato qualche tempo fa con una serie di ricorsi per la richiesta di connessioni a Terna (circa 700) e poi con le mobilitazioni generali.«Siamo la prima regione d Italia ad approvare una legge sulle aree idonee con circa 3 mesi di anticipo rispetto alla nuova scadenza prevista dal Governo», ha commentato subito dopo la votazione la presidente della Regione Alessandra Todde: «La Sardegna, da tempo considerata un fanalino di coda, oggi diventa un modello di tutela e pianificazione del territorio per le altre regioni italiane. Quando siamo arrivati al governo della Sardegna, abbiamo trovato un territorio spaventato e abbiamo respirato la preoccupazione dei sardi rispetto alle speculazione energetica». Tutti gli impianti, sia quelli nuovi sia quelli in autorizzazione, potranno essere realizzati solo nelle aree idonee. Non inciderà ovviamente su quelli già autorizzati.Il commento di Davide Madeddu, Il Sole 24 Ore

Wie Alphabet of Google zegt, denkt meteen aan één ding: de zoekmachine. Maar van dat imago neemt Google afscheid. Het verbaast analist én belegger met de inkomsten die het uit de cloud haalt. Het is de snelst groeiende tak, die ook een steeds groter deel van de winst uit gaat maken. Maar kan het de concurrentie met Amazon en Microsoft ook aan? Dat hoor je in deze aflevering. En dan hebben we het ook over AMD. Dat voldoet aan de verwachtingen van analisten, maar toch krijgt het aandeel klappen. AMD wil namelijk maar al te graag de productie opschalen, om aan de vraag naar AI-chips te voldoen. Maar die productie wordt uitgevoerd door TSMC, en die kan die vraag niet bijbenen. Of wíl het die vraag niet bijbenen? De Volkswagen-topman heeft nu cijfers om te bewijzen dat hij met het kapmes door z'n personeelsbestand heen moet. De hele autogroep lijdt onder de stroeve automarkt, maar het merk Volkswagen staat er het allerslechtst voor. Op de gemiddelde auto wordt daar nog maar een marge van 2 procent gemaakt.

AMD wil met een overname ter waarde van bijna vijf miljard dollar een slag slaan in de strijd tegen Nvidia. Joe van Burik vertelt erover in deze Tech Update. AMD, oftewel Advanced Micro Devices, wil voor omgerekend 4,4 miljard euro ZT Systems overnemen, dat zich specialiseert in dataclusters voor bedrijven. Dat betekent dat bedrijven die AI-systemen ontwikkelen en uitrollen, dat zo sneller kunnen doen. ZT is geen bekend bedrijf, maar is al vijftien jaar actief en draait jaarlijks 10 miljard dollar omzet. ZT Systems levert trouwens ook cloud-computer-systemen die zich niet beperken tot AI, maar daar wil AMD na deze overname eigenlijk van af, meldt Reuters. Als die divisie wordt afgestoten, gaat daarmee ook het gros van het personeel weg. Er blijven dan maar duizend van de 2.500 mensen bij ZT Systems over.

In that difference lies a coming sea change in how the US, Europe, and the world at large will consume power — and how much that will cost.  For years, data centers displayed a remarkably stable appetite for power, even as their workloads mounted. Now, as the pace of efficiency gains in electricity use slows and the AI revolution gathers steam, Goldman Sachs Research estimates that data center power demand will grow 160% by 2030. At present, data centers worldwide consume 1-2% of overall power, but this percentage will likely rise to 3-4% by the end of the decade. In the US and Europe, this increased demand will help drive the kind of electricity growth that hasn't been seen in a generation. Along the way, the carbon dioxide emissions of data centers may more than double between 2022 and 2030.   Goldman Sachs research on AI and power needs https://www.goldmansachs.com/intelligence/pages/gs-research/generational-growth-ai-data-centers-and-the-coming-us-power-surge/report.pdf   https://www.goldmansachs.com/intelligence/pages/gs-research/ai-data-centers-global-power-surge-and-sustainability-impact/report.pdf   https://www.goldmansachs.com/intelligence/pages/AI-poised-to-drive-160-increase-in-power-demand.html     https://futurism.com/the-byte/ai-data-centers-power-built-in-nuclear-reactors AI DATA CENTERS NEED SO MUCH POWER THEY MAY NEED BUILT-IN NUCLEAR REACTORS "DATA CENTRES ARE POWER HUNGRY THINGS, BUT WITH AI WE'RE MOVING INTO A NEW LEVEL OF POWER REQUIREMENTS."   Nuclear Option It's no secret that keeping an AI data center running requires an immense amount of power. To meet those skyrocketing energy demands, experts are now looking for alternative sources, the BBC reports — including small nuclear reactors that could power individual data centers. "Our industry has to find another source of power," Digital Realty CTO Chris Sharp told the broadcaster. Small and Modular For years, scientists have been developing small modular reactors (SMR), which are scaled-down power plants that can provide power in situ and thereby dramatically reduce companies' dependence on the grid. Despite an entire burgeoning industry dedicated to their realization, there still aren't any commercial ones in operation anywhere in the world, as the BBC notes. It's an intriguing idea that has inspired some of the biggest players in the AI field to invest in the idea. Job listings last year suggested Microsoft was looking to roll out its own plan for SMRs, with the goal of eventually using them to power its AI data centers. Even OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has invested in a nuclear startup called Oklo, which is working on self-regulating SMRs. (Altman has also suggested that AI is so power hungry that it'll require a breakthrough energy source.) "Data centres are power hungry things, but with AI we're moving into a new level of power requirements," director at the Centre for Nuclear Engineering at Imperial College London Michael Bluck told the BBC. But it'll likely be a while before companies start producing SMRs at scale to meet those requirements. "There are about 50 SMR designs out there," Bluck added. "The challenge is to build them in repeatable units, factory style, standardizing production lines." One big hurdle to still overcome is regulation. After all, nuclear energy comes with some obvious risks. The US Nuclear Regulatory Commission has been "engaged in varying degrees of pre-application activities with several SMR designers over the past several years," per its official website. In 2020, the commission approved the first SMR design, developed by an Oregon-based startup called NuScale Power. However, despite clear momentum behind the idea, it's unclear if SMRs will end up being the answer to our rapidly rising energy needs. Companies are desperately looking for ways to scale up operations now — and not years from now. More on SMRs: Microsoft Needs So Much Power to Train AI That It's Considering Small Nuclear Reactors   https://www.iaea.org/newscenter/news/what-are-small-modular-reactors-smrs Small modular reactors (SMRs) are advanced nuclear reactors that have a power capacity of up to 300 MW(e) per unit, which is about one-third of the generating capacity of traditional nuclear power reactors. SMRs, which can produce a large amount of low-carbon electricity, are: Small – physically a fraction of the size of a conventional nuclear power reactor. Modular – making it possible for systems and components to be factory-assembled and transported as a unit to a location for installation. Reactors – harnessing nuclear fission to generate heat to produce energy.       https://www.nbcnews.com/tech/tech-news/nuclear-power-oklo-sam-altman-ai-energy-rcna139094 The AI industry is pushing a nuclear power revival — partly to fuel itself A nuclear startup backed by OpenAI chief Sam Altman wants to power data centers and homes alike. It's racing against surging demand while working to satisfy regulators.   Excerpt: Oklo is one of the nuclear startups backed by Sam Altman, the CEO of OpenAI who has described AI and cheap, green energy as mutually reinforcing essentials to achieving a future marked by “abundance.” “Fundamentally today in the world, the two limiting commodities you see everywhere are intelligence, which we're trying to work on with AI, and energy,” he told CNBC in 2021 after investing $375 million in Helion Energy, a nuclear fusion startup that Altman chairs. Microsoft last year agreed to buy power from Helion starting in 2028. Oklo, which Altman also chairs, is focused on the opposite reaction, fission, which generates energy by splitting an atom; fusion does so by merging atomic nuclei. Representatives for Altman, through his special acquisition company AltC, didn't respond to a request for comment. In rural southeastern Idaho, Oklo is working to build a small-scale nuclear powerhouse that could fuel data centers like the ones OpenAI and its competitors need. But the company also wants to supply mixed-use communities and industrial facilities, and is already contracted to build two commercial plants in southern Ohio.   Stocks to Review:   https://www.techopedia.com/investing/best-data-center-stocks Best Data Center Stocks to Buy in 2024 Here's a quick overview of the best data center stocks available today: Equinix: The US-based, large-cap data center real estate investment trust (REIT) rents out server space and provides  fast direct internet connections.

This week I'm reading from Robert Powell's book 'UFOs: A Scientist Explains What We Know (And Don't Know)'.Robert Powell, a founding Board member of the Scientific Coalition for UAP Studies, has studied the UFO subject for 17 years. His work is encapsulated in UFOs: A Scientist Explains What We Know (And Don't Know) which provides a scientific rationale for the reality of non-terrestrial craft that are intelligently controlled.Powell begins his book by familiarizing the reader with the history of UFOs and he identifies the more enigmatic and interesting UFO sightings. He examines the characteristics of these sightings that argue against a prosaic explanation: extreme acceleration, electromagnetic interference, bending light, no obvious propulsion mechanisms, and a lack of interaction with the atmosphere. Powell discusses the recent events that have caused our government to change the term from UFO to UAP. Included is information never before released indicating the government possesses not just two videos but five videos from 2015 of UFOs operating in the vicinity of the USS Roosevelt nuclear aircraft carrier.Powell's later chapters in the book discuss the extraterrestrial hypothesis considering the thousands of exoplanets that have been discovered in the last twenty years. Powell challenges the reader to consider all the implications that must be considered if intelligent life discovers us first. He looks at how we as individuals and as a society react to UFOs. He documents actions taken by our military that include instances when we have fired on UFOs.Powell argues that it is time for a change in the study of UFOs. The phenomenon has been with us for 75 years and we have learned very little as the decades have passed. The author makes the case for what needs to be done going forward. The solution he proposes will require a paradigm shift in our thinking and his book provides the information needed to understand that paradigm shift.BioRobert Powell was born in La Rochelle, France in 1953 and moved to the U.S. when he was 3 years old. He has a BS in Chemistry and is a former collegiate debater. He has 28 years experience in engineering management in the semiconductor industry. He helped Advanced Micro Devices develop its first flash memory technology that is used in today's flash cards for cameras, PCs, video cameras, and other products. His experience includes managing a state-of-the-art chemistry laboratory and managing a Research and Development group that worked on nanotechnology using atomic force microscopes, near-field optical microscopy, and other techniques.

Please go to this podcast's webpage for links to the actual articles for more company and stock information. Also, some companies might be covered more than once and there are also 6 article links below that time didn't allow me to review them here. ------------------------------------------------------------- 1) Best Ethical, ESG Stocks, for 2024 I'm starting this episode with this article, 13 Best Ethical Companies to Invest in 2024. It's by Ramish Cheema at Insider Monkey and appeared on finance.yahoo.com. Here are some quotes from Mr. Cheema from his article. “We ranked the top 30 most valuable holdings of the Vanguard ESG U.S. Stock ETF (ESGV) by the number of hedge funds that had bought the shares during the fourth quarter of 2023 and picked the top stocks… Hedge funds' top 10 consensus stock picks outperformed the S&P 500 Index by more than 140 percentage points over the last 10 years (see the details here). 13. Adobe Inc. (NASDAQ:ADBE) Hedge Fund Shareholders: 105 Its Photoshop software is one of the best known image editing software in the world, and in April 2024, Adobe shared that it will add artificial intelligence features to Photoshop later this year. 12. Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc. (NYSE:TMO) Hedge Fund Shareholders: 111 Thermo Fisher Scientific is one of the biggest medical instruments and devices companies in the world. The shares are rated Buy on average. 11. UnitedHealth Group Incorporated (NYSE:UNH) Hedge Fund Shareholders: 113 UnitedHealth Group is the largest healthcare benefits provider and plan manager in the U.S. 2024 has been quite a controversial year for the firm after it was targeted through a cyber attack earlier this year that disrupted healthcare services across America. 10. Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMD) Hedge Fund Shareholders: 120 Advanced Micro Devices is an American semiconductor designer that makes and sells CPUs, GPUs, and other silicon products… Wall Street appears to be quite optimistic about the firm's future prospects, as it has rated the shares Strong Buy. 9. Salesforce, Inc. (NYSE:CRM) Hedge Fund Shareholders: 131 Salesforce is an American enterprise software company that enables firms to manage their customer relationships… the shares are up after reports indicate that Salesforce is no longer pursuing a multi billion dollar acquisition to grow its business operations. 8. Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) Hedge Fund Shareholders: 131 April 2024 hasn't been a great month for the firm, as not only have its shares proved to be lackluster in gains, but multiple reports share that consumer interest in the Apple Vision Pro headset is declining. 7. Mastercard Incorporated (NYSE:MA) Hedge Fund Shareholders: 141 Mastercard is a financial technology firm that acts as a gateway between merchants and consumers. It's… rated (a) Strong Buy on average. 6. Visa Inc. (NYSE:V) Hedge Fund Shareholders: 162 Visa Inc. is another payment gateway platform and services provider. Like Mastercard, it was also at the center of a bullish analyst note from Morgan Stanley in April 2024 that indicated that Visa Inc. was benefiting from the surge in global travel. 5. NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA) Hedge Fund Shareholders: 173 NVIDIA Corporation is Wall Street's artificial intelligence darling. Its shares are up by 198% over the past year… 4. Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:GOOGL) Hedge Fund Shareholders: 214 Alphabet Inc. is one of the biggest technology companies in the world. The firm was out with an announcement worthy of its size in April 2024 when it announced that it would invest $640 million to set up a new data center in The Netherlands. 3. Meta Platforms, Inc. (NASDAQ:META) Hedge Fund Shareholders: 242 Meta Platforms, Inc. is the biggest social media and communications company in the world. Its CEO Mark Zuckerberg appeared to have thrown a curve ball in the AI market in April 2024 when Meta Platforms announced its Llama 3 model which it claims is one of the most powerful open source AI platforms in the world. 2. Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN) Hedge Fund Shareholders: 293 Amazon.com is one of the biggest eCommerce retailers in the world. Like other mega cap stocks, it is also focusing heavily on AI, and announced plans in April through which its AWS business division seeks to host other businesses' AI models. 1. Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:MSFT) Hedge Fund Shareholders: 302 Microsoft is a global consumer software and enterprise computing giant. The firm scored a big win in April 2024 when beverages giant Coca Cola signed a $1.1 billion deal with it to use Microsoft's AI and cloud computing platforms.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- 2) Best Ethical, ESG Stocks, for 2024 This next article comes from investorplace.com, a site with a prolific output of articles related to renewable energy. This new article is titled The Power of the Sun: 3 Solar Energy Stocks Primed for 5X Gains. It's by Faizan Farooque. Now some quotes from Mr. Farooque. “1. Array Technologies (NASDAQ:ARRY) has surpassed Wall Street projections four times… Despite tremendous success, Array stock is down 31% in 2024 due to lower-than-expected annual expectations. The company's reduction of its annual prediction has lowered the stock's price, making it ideal for investors looking for inexpensive solar stocks. Analysts predict a 68% upside. 2. Canadian Solar (NASDAQ:CSIQ) The company has missed profit expectations seven times in a row, with the most recent miss being 350%. All it can do is focus on its business and grow. To do this, Canadian Solar is constructing a 5GW solar cell factory in Jeffersonville, Indiana, at a cost of $800 million… Investors will hope the expansion into China and the new $800 million plant will help realize the stock's 84% upside potential. 3. First Solar's (NASDAQ:FSLR) path forward will depend on its aggressive expansion in the solar business. It's spending $1.2 billion to expand its U.S. manufacturing capabilities… First Solar also paid $38 million to buy the Swedish perovskite expert Evolar. It is hoped that this buy will speed up the creation of very efficient tandem photovoltaic (PV) technology… The potential upside of over 22% reflects this narrative, placing it highly among solar stocks.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- 3) Best Ethical, ESG Stocks, for 2024 This third article comes by way of a new website to me, techopedia.com. The article is titled Best ESG Stocks to Invest in 2024 and it's by Jim Halley. Now some brief comments by Mr. Halley on each company. “1. ASML Holding (NASDAQ: ASML) The Dutch company has a monopoly on EUV lithography machines that are used to imprint patterns on silicon chips. 2. Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) The tech company hasn't let its profit goals get in the way of ESG progress and has invested heavily in renewable energy. It has set ambitious goals for reducing water use and to be carbon neutral. 3. Hermes International (OTC: HESAF) The luxury goods retailer sells longer-lasting goods to protect the environment and has a science-based target to lower greenhouse gas emissions in its supply chain and operations. 4. Fortinet (NASDAQ: FTNT) The cybersecurity company has lowered its carbon footprint, avoiding 455 tons of CO2 emissions by using eco-friendly packaging. It also uses 100% renewable energy in 80% of its owned sites. 5. Check Point Software Technologies (NASDAQ: CHKP) The Israeli company focuses on cybersecurity services. It said it's looking to be carbon neutral by 2040. It also focuses on charitable work and gender equality. 6. Colgate-Palmolive (NYSE: CL) Founded in 1806, it's one of the oldest companies in the US stock market. It has a diverse workforce, with 42% of its senior managers and directors being minorities (Black, Asian or Latino). 7. Adobe (NASDAQ: ADBE) The software company gets high sustainability scores by using renewable energy sources and reducing waste. It also has several diversity and inclusion initiatives.  8. Brookfield Renewable Partners (NYSE: BEP) It develops and operates renewable power and sustainable assets, including hydroelectric, wind, utility-scale solar power. It pays an above-average dividend.  9. Constellation Energy (NASDAQ: CEG) The electrical power and natural gas management services provider has the US's largest carbon-free nuclear presence after investing in the South Texas Project Electric Generating Station.  10. Applied Materials (NASDAQ: AMAT) The world's No. 1 semiconductor wafer fabrication equipment maker gets high ESG scores because it uses 100% renewable energy – wind and solar power – in the US, and 70% globally.” End quotes ------------------------------------------------------------- 4) Best Ethical, ESG Stocks, for 2024 The fourth article is another one from the investorplace.com site titled 7 Alternative Energy Stocks to Buy on the Fossil Fuel Fallout. It's by Josh Enomoto. Here are some quotes from Mr. Enomoto on each of his picks. “1. NextEra Energy (NYSE:NEE) generates, transmits, distributes and sells electric power to retail and wholesale customers in North America. Per its public profile, the company generates electricity through wind, solar, nuclear, natural gas and other clean energy... It's one of the alternative energy stocks to keep on your radar. 2. Cameco (NYSE:CCJ) provides uranium for electricity generation. It operates through multiple segments, with its mainline uranium unit involved in the exploration for, mining, milling, purchase and sale of uranium concentrate. It also features a fuel unit that engages in the refining and fabrication of the commodity… It's an unignorable component of alternative energy stocks to buy. 3. Ormat Technologies (NYSE:ORA) (Is engaged in geothermal energy production.) Geothermal is exactly what it sounds like — extracting energy from the earth's core. It's sustainable, renewable and doesn't involve building ugly wind turbines that could impact wildlife. Notably, the company is a strong financial performer. Last fiscal year, it posted an average positive earnings surprise of 22.58%. 4. First Solar (NASDAQ:FSLR) provides photovoltaic (PV) solar energy solutions in the United States, France, Japan, Chile and internationally. Per its public profile, the company manufactures and sells PV solar modules with a thin film semiconductor technology that provides a lower-carbon alternative to conventional crystalline silicon PV solar modules… It's still risky but it could be a compelling wager for alternative energy stocks. 5. Clearway Energy (NYSE:CWEN) Per its corporate profile, Clearway has approximately 6,000 net megawatts (MW) of installed wind, solar and energy generation projects. It also features approximately 2,500 net MW of natural gas-fired generation facilities… The most optimistic analyst believes that Clearway Energy has… over 62% upside potential. 6. Brookfield Renewable (NYSE:BEPC) owns and operates a portfolio of renewable power and sustainable solution assets primarily in the U.S., Europe, Colombia and Brazil. According to its corporate profile, Brookfield operates hydroelectric, wind, solar and distributed energy and sustainable solutions with an installed capacity of approximately 19,161 MW… Shares feature a moderate buy consensus view. 7. Clean Energy Fuels (NASDAQ:CLNE) provides natural gas as alternative fuels for vehicle fleets and related fueling solutions in the U.S. and Canada… Clean Energy Fuels ranks as the highest-risk, highest-reward prospect on this list of alternative energy stocks. Analysts rate shares a consensus strong buy… projecting over 215% upside potential.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- Other Honorable Mentions – not in any order 1.

March CPI The March Consumer Price Index (CPI) report spooked investors and sent the likelihood of a Fed rate cut in June to around 20%, which was a sharp drop from the greater than 50% chance that was priced in before the data was released. The concern came as headline CPI was 3.5% over the last 12 months, which topped the estimate of 3.4% and core CPI rose 3.8% from a year ago, compared with the estimate of 3.7%. Last month the annual rate for headline CPI was 3.2% and for core CPI it was 3.8%. Energy prices were a benefit to headline CPI over the last year or so, but with the recent increase in energy we are beginning to see them not benefit the headline number as much and I soon worry they will cause the headline number to top the core CPI reading. In the March report, energy was up 2.1%, but as we lap the easy comparisons from last year the annual increase could climb substantially which would cause the headline CPI to increase. Shelter continues to be a major weight on the numbers as the index climbed 5.7% compared to last year and accounted for over 60% of the climb in core CPI. Transportation services were also a major negative as they climbed 10.7% compared to last year. I believe this can largely be attributed to rising energy prices. Also, motor vehicle insurance continues to be a major negative as it saw an increase of 22.2% over the last year. While this report wasn't overly positive, I would like to wait and see the PCE release on April 26th before abandoning the idea for a potential of three rate cuts this year.  March PPI The March Producer Price Index (PPI) report looked much more favorable than the CPI. Headline PPI rose 0.2% for the month, less than the 0.3% estimate and core PPI matched the estimate as it also rose 0.2% in the month. On a 12-month basis, PPI rose 2.1% which was the biggest gain since April 2023. While that may sound concerning, the inflation rate is near the Fed's target so I would not say that is problematic. Core PPI rose 2.4% over the last year, which was the highest since September. Like the headline number, I don't believe this is problematic considering the rate is still very reasonable in relation to the Fed's 2% target.  Investing Highs and Lows I love to read information from smart people like Daniel Kahneman, who unfortunately passed away at age 90 on March 27. He was a pioneer in behavioral economics, although he felt he was really a psychologist. If investors would listen to his advice, their returns would probably be much higher and their psychological well-being would be far better when it came to investing. He mentions that people who lost on an investment feel at least twice as much pain as the gains feel pleasant. He also discusses how people do not incorporate all available information and people believe that short streaks in a random process enables them to predict what will come next. Interestingly, he also points out that based on research of asking people if they want to take a risk with an 80% chance of success, most people say yes. However, if you flip-flop that around and ask if they incurred the same risk with a 20% chance of failure, they say no. Obviously the risk is the same, but the psychology is different. I believe this is why many people get into bad investments. Sales people just focus on the positive side and leave the unsuspecting investor to do their own risk analysis.  Semiconductor Industry While the semiconductor industry is likely to continue growing, I do worry about China hurting the growth of US semiconductor companies. Shares of chip companies like Intel and Advanced Micro Devices fell after the Wall Street Journal reported that China is ordering the country's largest telecommunications carriers to cease use of foreign chips. According to the Journal, Chinese officials issued the directive earlier this year for the telecom systems to replace non-Chinese core processors by 2027. China also recently set new guidelines to remove U.S. chips from government computers and servers. The problem here is China still remains a major market for US chip companies as the country accounted for 27% of Intel's revenue in 2023 and AMD generated 15% of sales from China. Data from S&P Global showed that U.S. chip giants Intel, Broadcom, Qualcomm and Marvell Technology all generate more revenue from China compared with the U.S. The relationship with China is definitely worth keeping an eye on if you are investing in semiconductor companies, especially since most of them now trade at lofty valuations. To Reinvest or Not Reinvest Dividends From a retirement planning standpoint, it can be helpful to not reinvest dividends, especially in non-retirement accounts. In a non-retirement account, or a taxable account as they are called, dividends are taxed exactly the same way whether they are reinvested or not. In retirement, the focus shifts from accumulation to building tax-advantaged cashflow. When a dividend is automatically reinvested, it repurchases the same holding it came from. On the other hand if it is paid in cash, it will remain in the account where it can be invested or withdrawn. Therefore, when a dividend is paid in cash and incurs its normal tax, that cash can be accessed without any additional tax consequences. Alternatively, when dividends are automatically reinvested which is still taxable, if cashflow is needed, sells will also need to be made to generate that cash which can result in additional capital gain taxes. In a way, you're getting taxed twice to create the same amount of cashflow. From a tax perspective, if a dividend is produced from a holding that is held for more than 60 days within the 121-day period surrounding the ex-dividend date, it will be considered a qualified dividend and taxed at the lower long-term capital gain rate. That criterion is a little technical but basically it means dividends from long-term holdings are taxed at the lower rate. It is popular to have dividends reinvested but this can force unnecessary taxation in retirement and can limit other planning opportunities like Roth Conversions. Stocks Discussed: BP (BP), Redfin (RDFN) and Highwood Properties (HIW)
