1319 GMT - Investors aren't properly valuing ASM International's large exposure to Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company, analysts at UBS write. As TSMC increases its investment into wafer manufacturing--which UBS forecasts to rise by 21% year-on-year in 2026--ASMI will benefit, they say. Revenue from ASM's foundry and logic segment will increase faster than expected, while growth in demand for artificial intelligence memory is also under-appreciated by investors, the analysts add. ASM gains 4.7%, beating out its European semiconductor peers to trade at close to a one-year high.(josephmichael.stonor@wsj.com)
