Ideas
Anthony Stevens Bloomberg Market Producer 2:54
Buy large-cap Asian tech stocks.
Investors are taking shelter in large-cap Asian tech stocks such as Tencent, Samsung, and TSMC because their growth trajectory, cash flow, and earnings are better understood amid the AI recovery. This flight to safety within the AI trade is driving outperformance of these liquid mega-cap names over speculative tech plays.
Novan Amirudin CEO, CIMB Group 18:06
CIMB will achieve top regional earnings.
CIMB is executing its multiyear Forward 30 plan to become the top earnings bank in the region, supported by strong capital market activity, improved fiscal fundamentals, AI-driven revenue expansion, and cost discipline. The bank aims to lower personnel costs as a percentage of income while growing income, creating shareholder value.

Bombardier's aftermarket and backlog strong.
