Layer Alerts
| Severity | Date | Title | Layer | Entity | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Warning | Semiconductor margins are extreme while inventory is rising Gross margin is above the 90th historical percentile and inventory days increased quarter over quarter. | Semiconductor and Hardware Supply Chain | Broadcom | Inventory Days Change: 12.52 | |
| Watch | Low-PE Bubble Watch: normalized valuation is above sector median Reported PE looks inexpensive, but normalized PE is above the sector median, indicating possible peak-earnings distortion. | Semiconductor and Hardware Supply Chain | NVIDIA | ||
| Watch | Backlog quality deteriorated Backlog quality weakened, so headline backlog may overstate durable revenue visibility. | Semiconductor and Hardware Supply Chain | Broadcom | ||
| Warning | Semiconductor margins are extreme while inventory is rising Gross margin is above the 90th historical percentile and inventory days increased quarter over quarter. | Semiconductor and Hardware Supply Chain | NVIDIA | Inventory Days Change: 28.15 |
