Our Equity Top Pick List
We have updated our Equity Top Pick List to reflect the events of the past quarter. The list includes those stocks, typically US and European ones, that we consider to be proper investment choices from a fundamental point of view. It can provide a starting point for building a sector-diversified equity exposure in portfolios, but can also be used as a watch list. Technical analysis should be used to time / determine the specific investment decision.
Could the momentum return in the semiconductors?
The semiconductor sector has had a challenging quarter, with its performance in recent months lagging behind improvements in underlying fundamentals, even as AI-driven demand remained exceptionally strong. The accelerating adoption of AI by enterprises and the proliferation of AI agents are significantly increasing the demand for computing capacity, which points to a further surge in cloud services and data center investments. Given current supply constraints, record-high backlogs, and higher-than-expected investment needs, we expect further upward revisions to earnings forecasts in the semiconductor industry. Nevertheless, the sector’s valuation appears favorable from a historical perspective, which, in our view, could result in a more attractive risk-return profile in the coming months.
In our latest dividend calendar, we examined, by sector, how much in dividends the better-known companies in the Stoxx 600 index are likely to pay.
Our dividend calendar lists the stocks in the European Stoxx 600 index and the expected dividend yields for those stocks. For the Stoxx 600, we examined the index’s sectors separately and included the larger, better-known companies and their expected dividend yields in our calendar. For this, we used the dividend expectations from the Bloomberg database; however, it is worth noting that the final dividend approved by the company’s general meeting may differ from this; the database includes previously announced or expected dates regarding the dividend payment schedule and the timing of the general meeting; in some cases, no date has been announced or is only indicative at this time.
