As the year picks up momentum, this week brings significant updates in earnings and dividends.
Earnings Announcements
Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. (TSMC), a leading semiconductor manufacturer, is set to announce its earnings. According to Sanlam Private Wealth’s investment analyst, the semiconductor giant is “positioned to capitalize on structural trends such as AI, as well as the cyclical recovery in the semiconductor market.”
In addition, major U.S. financial institutions - including JPMorgan, Wells Fargo, Citibank, Bank of America, Goldman Sachs, and Morgan Stanley - will also release their earnings this week. These financial giants have a history of outperforming market expectations on earnings, drawing significant attention to financial stocks. Notably, TSMC, a key supplier to Apple, Nvidia, Broadcom, and Marvell, is scheduled to report its earnings early Thursday. Will you be investing?

These include actively managed ETFs like the Prescient Income Provider Feeder AMETF, which distributes dividends monthly.
