Netherlands-based ASML Holdings N.V. provides advanced semiconductor capital equipment solutions. ASML manufactures ultraviolet lithography systems critical to the production of integrated circuits. The company, based in Europe's top technology hub near Eindhoven, has operations in Europe, the Americas, and Asia, and employs 33,000 people. The company supplies both primary semiconductor companies such as Intel and Samsung as well as merchant foundry companies such as Taiwan Semiconductor. Together with its partners, ASML is driving the development of more affordable, more powerful, and more energy-efficient chips and devices.

Stocks are down at midday with the Nasdaq dragging the most, down 2%. Global chip stocks are lower after Nvidia put a dollar amount on the loss it will suffer from Washington's export curbs on an AI chip it had tailored for China. Nvidia is measuring the loss at $5.5 billion. Retail Sales popped in March, as expected, as consumers rushed to buy goods ahead of tariffs. Headline Retail Sales rose 1.4% in March above the 1.2% estimate and far above the 0.2% rise the month before. Also, no surprise, vehicle sales and parts were up a hefty 9% from last year. The yield on the 10-year Treasury note is 4.33%. Oil is at $62 per barrel. Gold is up 2%.
Even if Tariffs Apply to Semiconductor Equipment, We Remain Bullish on Dutch Equipment Makers
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.
