Iqe Share Discussion Threads

the share price is not taking a breather
the shorts are hovering over us like vultures
any rise will be sold into
whatever the strengths of iqe, and they are many, their pr phobia is allowing this to happen.
a world leader should be out there proselytising and building a profile
where is the update on the new machines for example?

AMS share price seems to have rocketed now that they have the right product mix for the next five years.
Just an idle thought that perhaps the AMS share price could replace the Oclaro chart now that Oclaro is soon to disappear.
The IQE share price is pausing for breath, otherwise it would have been been following the AMS
upward trend. So with market sentiment building again these current price levels are a bit of a bargain.

That’s more like it

The Barron’s guy has written a good article but COMPLETELY missed the rather important fact that Apple are almost certainly funding AMS CAPEX expansion in Singapore - says a lot about Apple’s commitment to 3D sensing

If you are interesting in FACTS, refer to my post 16097 as referenced by picobird.

Remember, because I will be reminding you soon, what’s good for AMS is brilliant for IQE.

As for the IQE Capex in terms of buying extra reactors, I still believe they will expedite the second set of 5 due to be installed July- August and to satisfy the demand for H2 19, due to Android and world facing applications order another 10 at least by the time of half year results in September. We KNOW because IQE told us that each of these new reactors will pay for itself within a year :-)

Is the IQE plc share price the bargain of the year?
The Motley Fool /Tuesday, April 10, 2018 - 14:45

Having enjoyed significant gains in the early part of 2017, the last eight months have been somewhat disappointing for the IQE (LSE:IQE) share price. The advanced wafer products supplier is trading no higher than it was last August, which suggests that investors now view it as being fully valued.

However, with the company forecast to deliver further earnings growth over the next two years, it could offer the potential for a period of renewed growth. As such, now could be the perfect time to buy.

picobird,

Thanks for the link

It is the "world facing" ( rear facing ) 3D camera which may require much more VCSEL wafer area per unit.

Quote from your link above:

............But Dai sees an even more powerful future for the company: as 3D sensing is built into the back of the iPhone, and phones from other vendors, those phones need a more powerful VCSEL laser than those provided by Finisar or Lumentum or the other big vendor, II-VI (IIVI).............



Quote from IQE's results:

-- Potential for strong growth in 2019 and beyond

-- Increasing VCSEL adoption for 3D sensing expected to accelerate
across multiple smartphone OEMs, introduction of world facing 3D
technology, and first deployment of LIDAR and several other high
volume sensing applications............

IQE future is rosy / Apple ditches intel

Not the first time apple have brought everything in house. They nearly went bankrupt with this approach before bringing Steve Jobs back and started using off the shelf parts.

Other companies have done the same thing
IBM made bespoke CPU's, DASD and other parts. Now because of the continued cost of development they buy parts off the shelf.
Sony designed a bespoke CPU for the PlayStation then on the next version went back to buying off the shelf CPU from Intel.

Also believe that IQE products will still be required by apple to create the new bespoke CPU's. IQE share price inflated because it has links to Apple but the company is not dependant on them.

I am also seeing this board degenerating. Please get back to discussing sensible and serious informative info on the company.

[master rsi] 10/4/2018 16:17

by the change of direction this afternoon, it looks like the YANKIS are at their tricks and selling short.
Some are trying to control the stock at this point

a very weak order book on the bid side DEPTH of 32 v 66

share price trying to break throught the 50 days MA

[edjge2] 10/4/2018 11:53

bounced over 120 so up and away. ISA filled up, HOC seemed a better bargain

[master rsi] 10/4/2018 11:43

Is not finish yet
I am still wating for the apology

What is juvenile is you want to run before you learn to walk
and if you want to post a chart for the posters to see properly, first learn how to do it.

you chart earlier on a smaller scale

edit : at 16.23pm the very large chart post 16151 has been amended smaller size after this post

[suffersnofools] 10/4/2018 11:36

bocase - I certainly do hope I'm wrong, as a crash of that magnitude would effect the world economies drastically. The volatility you highlighted is an early warning sign of a potential trend change, and symptomatic of nearing a market top imo. We are also seeing an inversion of the yield curve. As a consequence I'm now running a long term short on the S&P as a hedge against my equities.

[suffersnofools] 10/4/2018 11:28

Of course you were. It certainly suits you. For the record fib levels are used by anyone that uses TA, so your need to claim it as your own is a bit juvenile, no? I'm sure you're marvelous and the bestest ever XX.

Can we leave it there now, as I'm sure we're boring everyone on this BB.

[bocase] 10/4/2018 11:26

Suffernofools:

re the Dow and your view that it could fall to 7/8K

I certainly hope you are wrong and I am sure you do too but I agree that with the rise of algo trading we are seeing massive moves happening very quickly. We are seeing a 600 point range in the Dow almost on a daily basis these days and that is in a relatively calm trading environment.

When I place a trade, I try to think what the worst case scenario is and can I live with that. Maybe I should widen my parameters.

Anyway IQE moving ever closer to your 1.35

[master rsi] 10/4/2018 11:25

at least I am not a FOOL like you

For you information
I was named - Master RSI - on winning a competition on Relative Strength Index CHART
and I have used the nickname for the last 20 years now.

[suffersnofools] 10/4/2018 11:15

Touched a nerve eh ;)

You can always tell what someone will be like when they call themselves a 'Master'

[master rsi] 10/4/2018 11:13

You are a FOOL alright
No one beats the Master

Chart made on 05/04/2018 00:05 and placed at different places
