Hey Brain Fam,

Wondering what everyone's thoughts are on the whole Intel/SiFive/ BrainChip connection bearing in mind that Intel recently launched Intel Foundary Services (IFS) to create a leading end-to-end foundry offering and become one of the top foundries by the end of the decade.

On the 7th February 2022 SiFive announced they will support Intel Foundry Services (IFS) innovation fund’s goal to build innovative new RISC-V computing platforms optimized for Intel process technology.

On the 5th April 2022 BrainChip & SiFive announced they had combined their respective technologies to offer chip designers optimized artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) for edge computing.

Anyway, I just thought their maybe a possibility that Akida might be one of those "disruptive technologies" that they are hoping will become a part of the IFS ecosystem.

Just some random thoughts for the day. 😵‍💫


Extract

Through a collaboration between Intel Capital and IFS, the company is creating a $1 billion fund to support early-stage startups and established companies building disruptive technologies for the foundry ecosystem. Initially, the fund will focus on two key strategic industry inflections: enabling modular products with an open chiplet platform and supporting design approaches that leverage multiple instruction set architectures (ISAs), with a particular focus on investments and partnerships that will help drive further adoption of RISC-V.

With rising inflation and rising market interest rates, more and more companies are coming under pressure and have to ease this pressure again through more efficient processes and process chains. An essential step towards greater efficiency is the optimization of data processing. The huge amounts of data that companies have accumulated over the years contain valuable insights and great potential for optimization. Companies should improve this as quickly as possible in order to remain competitive in a clearly deteriorating economic environment. These companies should benefit from this in the long term.

FURTHER COOPERATION AT BRAINCHIP HOLDINGS​

With branches in the USA, India and France, the researchers and developers of the semiconductor company BrainChip Holdings (WKN: A14Z7W ISIN: AU000000BRN8 Ticker: 24Y) caused a sensation at the beginning of the year. The leading provider of ultra-low-consumption high-performance chips has made a quantum leap through its cooperation with the Daimler Group. The Mercedes-Benz Vision EQXX is to be equipped with the "Superchip" developed by BrainChip. BrainChip's Akida hardware and software makes the "Hey, Mercedes" voice control in the EQXX more efficient by a factor of five to ten. After the announcement, the share could not be held back and increased 2.6-fold within a month.
But that was too much arrogance and the price has returned to a more reasonable valuation level in recent months. The share is trading above the valuation level of September 2020 again and the short-term overvaluation from the beginning of the year seems to have largely been reduced. For long-term oriented investors, interesting entry opportunities should therefore slowly be offered again, because the extremely energy-saving and high-performance Akida processor is currently beating the competition by far. But BrainChip is not resting on its laurels and announced the cooperation with the RISC-V computing company SiFive. Here, the applications of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) in decentralized data processing (edge computing) are to be expanded.

ACTIVISION BLIZZARD ACQUISITION BY MICROSOFT​

Microsoft's announcement in January of this year that it intends to take over the company Activision Blizzard drew wide attention in the media landscape. With a tender offer of $95 per share, this transaction would be valued at over $68.7 billion. For Microsoft, it would be the largest takeover in the company's history. The takeover would give Microsoft access to the popular games Call of Duty, World of Warcraft, Overwatch, Diablo and Candy Crush, which are played by millions of people around the world every day. In addition, Microsoft would catapult itself to third place among the game developers in the world. In 2021, Microsoft already generated revenues in the games business of USD 15 billion, which is 10.5% of the revenues of the last quarter. Activision Blizzard, on the other hand, already generated 9 billion USD. With the takeover, Microsoft would remain true to its monopolization strategy and would control a total of 14% of the gaming industry's revenues. In addition, the takeover would significantly increase the attractiveness of the Microsoft platform and attract even more players.
In the long term, this ensures increasing sales and disproportionately increasing profit margins in this segment. But Activision Blizzard shareholders must first agree to the takeover. On April 28, they will be asked to vote at the shareholders' meeting. But the resistance to the takeover is growing, because many shareholders consider the share to be undervalued and accuse the management of incompetence, especially with regard to the sexism affair. There are also concerns on the part of the competition authority SOC, because the merger would cause considerable damage to competition. With the stock currently trading at just $79.06, the market doesn't seem convinced of the takeover just yet. In any case, this offers activist shareholders the chance to benefit from a possible price increase of 20%,

SAP – BEFORE THE QUARTERLY FIGURES​

One of the world's leading providers of business software solutions alongside Microsoft is SAP SE. The software packages of the Walldorf group accompany many medium-sized companies as well as large international corporations. With industry-specific solutions in the healthcare, finance, trade, high-tech and public administration sectors, SAP SE generates a steadily increasing cash flow. The market is therefore eagerly awaiting the quarterly key figures for the first quarter of 2022.
These will be presented on Friday, April 22, 2022 by CEO Christian Klein and CFO Luka Mucic. The virtual analysts' conference on the business figures and the outlook for the current financial year are scheduled to start at 2 p.m. Interested investors can follow the live stream at: https://broadcast.co.sap.com/go/QReport .
Most investors should be particularly interested in the outlook, as the share has fallen by more than 26% since November 2021 to date. The next support zone is between EUR 89 and EUR 90. Should this not hold, a further sell-off down to EUR 77.72 would be possible.

The deteriorating economic environment is forcing companies to become more and more efficient in order to be able to compete. While large companies like Microsoft rely on takeovers in order to be able to grow faster again, "smaller" companies like BrainChip rely on their high innovative ability and can thus create new sales markets themselves.

CONFLICT OF INTEREST & RISK NOTICE​

According to §34b WpHG, we would like to point out that Tailerstone Limited and partners, authors or employees of Tailerstone Limited may hold shares in the companies mentioned or bet on falling prices and therefore there may be a conflict of interest. Tailerstone Limited may have a paid contractual relationship with the company, which is reported on on Tailerstone Limited 's website and in social media, on partner sites or in emails. Our conflict of interest & risk notice regulates further details .

DAIMLER'S DECLARATION OF WAR ON TESLA - BUCKLE UP AND FULL THROTTLE PLEASE - BYD, BRAINCHIP HOLDINGS, LUCID GROUP SHARE​

The upheaval in the automotive industry is accelerating and while the traditional supplier industry for combustion engines is suffering from massive economic problems, innovative companies are creating groundbreaking innovations in the shadow of e-mobility and the chip crisis. These are major breakthroughs that can change entire industries and turn them upside down. Diamonds are created under pressure - this is particularly high in the current difficult economic times.

ISIN: BRAINCHIP HOLDINGS LTD | AU000000BRN8 , DAIMLER AG NA ON | DE0007100000, Lucid Group Inc. | US5494981039 , TESLA INC. DL-_001 | US88160R1014


BREAKTHROUGH? BRAINCHIP HOLDINGS

Researchers and developers at the semiconductor company BrainChip Holdings (WKN: A14Z7W ISIN: AU000000BRN8 Ticker: 24Y) seem to have made the entrepreneurial breakthrough. BrainChip is already a leading provider of ultra-low-power, high-performance chips. With the help of the cooperation with the Japanese MegaChips (WKN: 915913 ISIN: JP3920860008 Ticker: MHC), the BrainChip development Akida-IP was licensed and marketed by MegaChips. This partnership has already more than paid off, because at the beginning of 2022 the breakthrough did not come from the Far East, but from the Daimler Group and its Mercedes-Benz Vision EQXX Concept . This uses the chip developed by BrainChipin the company's revolutionary relaunch.

DAIMLER USES BRAIN CHIP TECHNOLOGY

At the beginning of the year, the multi-billion dollar innovation driver from Stuttgart presented its impressive EQXX electric sedan. With a range of 1,000 km per charge, Daimler (WKN: 710000 ISIN: DE0007100000 ticker symbol: DAI) immediately catapulted itself onto the throne of the e-mobility providers with the greatest range. So far, the Lucid Group (WKN: A3CVXG ISIN: US5494981039 ticker symbol: CH2A) has had the Grand Touring (830 km, according to EPA) and the Tesla Model S Long Range (650 km, according to EPA) as the models with the highest range on the market. With a 200 HP electric motor and a battery capacity of approx. 100 kWh, the EQXX should be able to deliver approx. 10 km per kWh and is therefore 1/3 longer than the Lucid model and approx. 55% more efficient than the Tesla.

NEUROMORPHIC COMPUTER SYSTEM IN THE EQXX

As a result, the discussion about the range problem with e-mobility should slowly die down. This quantum leap at Mercedes comes primarily from Formula 1 experience and the use of the innovative materials already in use there. In addition to the aerodynamic design, these are responsible for the performance and range of the EQXX. The low energy consumption of the car is mainly due to the use of a neuromorphic computer system . This innovation comes from BrainChip and is an autonomous neural chip system. The energy consumption of conventional voice control is reduced by a factor of five to ten, which automatically increases the range of the batteries.

BYD IS GOING FULL THROTTLE AND WANTS TO DOUBLE

The e-mobility provider BYD (WKN: A0M4W9 ISIN: CNE100000296 Ticker: BY6) is also going full throttle. In 2021, BYD had set itself the goal of selling 600,000 units of electric cars and plug-in hybrids. By the end of October, more than 500,000 units had already been sold and with the November figures of 90,000 sales, the target was probably even reached. But BYD has big plans for 2022. Sales are to be doubled with a target of 1,200,000 units sold . Half of this is to be achieved with fully electric drives and half with hybrid drives.
This would mean that BYD would account for around 20% of e-car sales on the Chinese market . That should be achievable, because by November there had already been over 200,000 orders for plug-in models, which should be delivered in the first quarter of 2022. In the meantime, the delivery time in China alone has increased to four months, and in addition there are the new markets for BYD in Europe, South America and Asia. If the BYD models also correspond to the consumer wishes there, even this ambitious goal should be achievable.

CONCLUSION

E-mobility is not only on the rise among consumers, but due to the high level of competition, the sector is mutating into an innovation driver for an entire industry. For example, tried-and-tested materials are used that were otherwise only used in competitive Formula 1 sport, but were previously too expensive. However, due to the strong demand for e-cars and the lack of adequate supply, providers can also push through higher prices. And that means that the otherwise more expensive raw materials in mass production pay off.

Declaring War is a bit extreme but if that is what it takes.

Seriously this is an older article but it does give an understanding of why the German investor and institutions were so excited by the partnership of Brainchip with Mercedes Benz.

Since this time Brainchip has been clearly embraced by Mercedes Benz and it is completely transparent that Brainchip as a result of or because of an ongoing relationship with Nvidia in this space have been creating allies/partners that they can deploy in the war on Tesla.

However in line with Brainchip's beneficial Ai principles they are secretly partnering with Nviso who is working with Tesla to broker a peace treaty showing that they are more grown up and intelligent than Puto and a true internationalist in their political thinking and approach to world domination in their secret EDGE up campaign.

Yes what you say is correct Dang Son. The equity lost today in the ASX ultimately finds its way overseas to the USA & Europe while stripping Australia and its Citizens of wealth. A continual and repeating scenario which the ASX (US owned) facilitates with the Australian Gov assistance.

How can Australian companies compete and even get started when their asset base is continually manipulated and stripped away via the Markets?
Australia & its people are pawns to be used by foreigners especially the Europeans & USA/China. Its commodities are shipped overseas and any earnings are stripped away via the ASX.
I "guess" we are still just a "Colony" of sorts. lol.

The shorters are still very active with another 1.7 Mil shorts added yesterday (Thurs) so they are going to continue with no resistance. Free rein it would seem.

The other thing, I'm guessing most retail investors have also recently (in past decade) had to contend with is ChiX that trades on in between pips which cuts mum and dad out of so much of the price action and where i'm guessing a lot of Bots reside also to short and manipulate.
Australian Authorities permitting Multi National Bots to manipulate our home grown investments via these two new avenues is an utter Travesty.
Begs the question, is ASIC being run by Australians or Multinational Finance Institutions?

There are also concerns on the part of the competition authority SOC, because the merger would cause considerable damage to competition. With the stock currently trading at just $79.06, the market doesn't seem convinced of the takeover just yet. In any case, this offers activist shareholders the chance to benefit from a possible price increase of 20%,

SAP – BEFORE THE QUARTERLY FIGURES​

One of the world's leading providers of business software solutions alongside Microsoft is SAP SE. The software packages of the Walldorf group accompany many medium-sized companies as well as large international corporations. With industry-specific solutions in the healthcare, finance, trade, high-tech and public administration sectors, SAP SE generates a steadily increasing cash flow. The market is therefore eagerly awaiting the quarterly key figures for the first quarter of 2022.
These will be presented on Friday, April 22, 2022 by CEO Christian Klein and CFO Luka Mucic. The virtual analysts' conference on the business figures and the outlook for the current financial year are scheduled to start at 2 p.m. Interested investors can follow the live stream at: https://broadcast.co.sap.com/go/QReport .
Most investors should be particularly interested in the outlook, as the share has fallen by more than 26% since November 2021 to date. The next support zone is between EUR 89 and EUR 90. Should this not hold, a further sell-off down to EUR 77.72 would be possible.

The deteriorating economic environment is forcing companies to become more and more efficient in order to be able to compete. While large companies like Microsoft rely on takeovers in order to be able to grow faster again, "smaller" companies like BrainChip rely on their high innovative ability and can thus create new sales markets themselves.

CONFLICT OF INTEREST & RISK NOTICE​

The upheaval in the automotive industry is accelerating and while the traditional supplier industry for combustion engines is suffering from massive economic problems, innovative companies are creating groundbreaking innovations in the shadow of e-mobility and the chip crisis. These are major breakthroughs that can change entire industries and turn them upside down. Diamonds are created under pressure - this is particularly high in the current difficult economic times.
Reading time: about 2 minutes. Author: Stefan Bode
ISIN: BRAINCHIP HOLDINGS LTD | AU000000BRN8 , DAIMLER AG NA ON | DE0007100000, Lucid Group Inc. | US5494981039 , TESLA INC. DL-_001 | US88160R1014


BREAKTHROUGH? BRAINCHIP HOLDINGS

Researchers and developers at the semiconductor company BrainChip Holdings (WKN: A14Z7W ISIN: AU000000BRN8 Ticker: 24Y) seem to have made the entrepreneurial breakthrough. BrainChip is already a leading provider of ultra-low-power, high-performance chips. With the help of the cooperation with the Japanese MegaChips (WKN: 915913 ISIN: JP3920860008 Ticker: MHC), the BrainChip development Akida-IP was licensed and marketed by MegaChips. This partnership has already more than paid off, because at the beginning of 2022 the breakthrough did not come from the Far East, but from the Daimler Group and its Mercedes-Benz Vision EQXX Concept . This uses the chip developed by BrainChipin the company's revolutionary relaunch.

DAIMLER USES BRAIN CHIP TECHNOLOGY

At the beginning of the year, the multi-billion dollar innovation driver from Stuttgart presented its impressive EQXX electric sedan. With a range of 1,000 km per charge, Daimler (WKN: 710000 ISIN: DE0007100000 ticker symbol: DAI) immediately catapulted itself onto the throne of the e-mobility providers with the greatest range. So far, the Lucid Group (WKN: A3CVXG ISIN: US5494981039 ticker symbol: CH2A) has had the Grand Touring (830 km, according to EPA) and the Tesla Model S Long Range (650 km, according to EPA) as the models with the highest range on the market. With a 200 HP electric motor and a battery capacity of approx. 100 kWh, the EQXX should be able to deliver approx. 10 km per kWh and is therefore 1/3 longer than the Lucid model and approx. 55% more efficient than the Tesla.

NEUROMORPHIC COMPUTER SYSTEM IN THE EQXX

As a result, the discussion about the range problem with e-mobility should slowly die down. This quantum leap at Mercedes comes primarily from Formula 1 experience and the use of the innovative materials already in use there. In addition to the aerodynamic design, these are responsible for the performance and range of the EQXX. The low energy consumption of the car is mainly due to the use of a neuromorphic computer system . This innovation comes from BrainChip and is an autonomous neural chip system. The energy consumption of conventional voice control is reduced by a factor of five to ten, which automatically increases the range of the batteries.

BYD IS GOING FULL THROTTLE AND WANTS TO DOUBLE

The e-mobility provider BYD (WKN: A0M4W9 ISIN: CNE100000296 Ticker: BY6) is also going full throttle. In 2021, BYD had set itself the goal of selling 600,000 units of electric cars and plug-in hybrids. By the end of October, more than 500,000 units had already been sold and with the November figures of 90,000 sales, the target was probably even reached. But BYD has big plans for 2022. Sales are to be doubled with a target of 1,200,000 units sold . Half of this is to be achieved with fully electric drives and half with hybrid drives.
This would mean that BYD would account for around 20% of e-car sales on the Chinese market . That should be achievable, because by November there had already been over 200,000 orders for plug-in models, which should be delivered in the first quarter of 2022. In the meantime, the delivery time in China alone has increased to four months, and in addition there are the new markets for BYD in Europe, South America and Asia. If the BYD models also correspond to the consumer wishes there, even this ambitious goal should be achievable.

CONCLUSION

E-mobility is not only on the rise among consumers, but due to the high level of competition, the sector is mutating into an innovation driver for an entire industry. For example, tried-and-tested materials are used that were otherwise only used in competitive Formula 1 sport, but were previously too expensive. However, due to the strong demand for e-cars and the lack of adequate supply, providers can also push through higher prices. And that means that the otherwise more expensive raw materials in mass production pay off.



We could always send this to Dpl. Phys. Bernhard Vogginger because he wants to see some peer-reviewed stuff and there's a lot of peer reviewing happening in this article, namely BrainCHip compared with its peers Tesla and the Lucid Group - 1/3 longer than the Lucid model and approx. 55% more efficient than the Tesla).

He-he-he!🥳

I heard someone explaining the other day that the low unemployment figures were largely attributable to the fact that we are down about 250000 backpackers because of covid restrictions.
That cannot be because our political leaders on both sides of the house have for decades now since we floated the dollar told us that these nice people who come here on holiday do not take our jobs they simply perform the jobs that Australian residents will not perform (for cash and below award wages - I added this bit) and that they bring us billions in tourist dollars so I don't think this person you listened too knew what they were talking about. If they are correct then this would mean our politicians have been untruthful and have misled the electorate time and time and time again.

We the Australian electorate may not be mushrooms but I know what we are forced to eat.

But yet they do to keep the country going in its time of greatest need just like the first ANZACs.

Such sacrifice by so few for so many. I hope we can get support for a Wall of Honour where they can be named and we can pay homage.

I read today that the NDIS Scheme is now costing more than Medicare. We really should acknowledge the sacrifices these Australians picking fruit and being polite are making so they can pay truck loads of tax to keep the whole thing afloat until after the election.

The back room power brokers need time to think up the next agreed bipartisan lie.
