Semiconductor Fabrication & Test Equipment

Own the equipment suppliers that enable chip fabrication, process control and production testing rather than betting on a particular chip designer. The sharp semiconductor-equipment drawdown offers a selective entry point: AMAT trades at 21.9x forward earnings and LRCX at 25x. Buying now anticipates continued demand for advanced manufacturing, while accepting that customer capital-spending cuts could prolong the downturn. Launch basket (equal weight): AMAT, LRCX, KLAC, ASML, TER, ONTO, FORM, ACLS Rules: 1. No inverse, leveraged or volatility ETFs. 2. Only names tradable at the enrolled brokers (Moomoo): no OTC listings, no dead tickers, nothing on the refused list.
