ASML: A Solid Quarter, But 2026 Looks Cloudy

  • ASML Holding posted solid Q2 results, but bookings remain volatile and growth visibility for 2026 is lacking, raising concerns about future momentum. Management's lack of confidence in 2026 growth is a major red flag, especially in the context of ongoing macro and industry headwinds. Despite strong technical moats and compressed valuation, I see no justification to upgrade my rating until High-NA proves itself.
