Tradr ETFs are designed for sophisticated investors and professional traders who are looking to express high conviction investment views. The strategies include leveraged and inverse ETFs that seek short or long exposure to actively traded stocks and ETFs.IMPORTANT RISK INFORMATIONTradr ETFs are for sophisticated investors and professional traders with high conviction views and are very different from most other ETFs. The Funds are intended to be used as short-term trading vehicles and pursue leveraged investment objectives, which means they are riskier than alternatives that do not use leverage because the Funds magnify the performance of their underlying security. The volatility of the underlying security may affect a Fund's return as much as, or more than, the return of the underlying security.Investors in the fund should: (a) understand the risks associated with the use of leverage; (b) understand the consequences of seeking inverse and leveraged investment results; (c) for short ETFs, understand the risk of shorting; (d) intend to actively monitor and manage their investment. Fund performance will likely be significantly different than the benchmark over periods longer than the specified reset period and the performance may trend in the opposite direction than its benchmark over periods other than that period.Leverage increases the risk of a total loss of an investor's investment, may increase the volatility of the Funds, and may magnify any differences between the performance of the Funds and their reference security. The Funds seek leveraged investment results for a specific period (daily, monthly or quarterly). The exact exposure of an investment in the Fund intra-period will depend upon the movement of the reference security from the end of the prior period until the time of investment by the investor.The Fund will not attempt to position its portfolio to ensure it does not gain or lose more than a maximum percentage of its net asset value on a given trading day. As a consequence, investors in a Fund that seeks two times daily performance would lose all of their money if the Fund's underlying security moves more than 50% in a direction adverse to the Fund on a given trading day.ETFs involve risk including possible loss of the full principal value. There is no assurance that the Fund will achieve its investment objective. Principal risks and other important risks may be found in the prospectus. Past performance does not guarantee future results.ETF shares are bought and sold at market price (not NAV) and are not individually redeemed from the ETF. There can be no guarantee that an active trading market for ETF shares will develop or be maintained, or that their listing will continue or remain unchanged. Buying or selling ETF shares on an exchange may require the payment of brokerage commissions and frequent trading may incur brokerage costs that detract significantly from investment returns.Investors should carefully consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses of the Funds. This and other important information about the Fund is contained in the Prospectus, which can be obtained by visiting www.tradretfs.com. The Prospectus should be read carefully before investing.Distributed by ALPS Distributors, Inc, which is not affiliated with AXS Investments or its Tradr ETFs.

Tower Semiconductor to gain full control of Japan 300mm facility in restructuring dealMarch 25, 2026 11:00 AM
IH Market News
Tower Semiconductor (NASDAQ:TSEM) said it will restructure its operations in Japan in a move that will give the company full ownership of a 300mm fabrication plant, while its partner assumes control of a 200mm facility. The company’s shares have risen sharply in recent days, climbing about 27% over the past week to $180.82, near their 52-week high.Under the arrangement, Tower will hold the 300mm Fab 7 plant through a wholly owned Japanese subsidiary. Meanwhile, Nuvoton Technology Corporation Japan will become the sole owner of the 200mm Fab 5 facility. Both plants are currently operated under TPSCo, a joint venture owned 51% by Tower and 49% by NTCJ, a subsidiary of Nuvoton Technology Corporation (TSEC:4919).The companies expect the transaction to close on April 1, 2027, pending customary approvals and regulatory clearance, according to a company statement.To ensure continuity for existing customers, the partners plan to establish mutual long-term supply agreements. Tower customers currently served by Fab 5 and Nuvoton customers supplied by Fab 7 are expected to see no disruption in production or deliveries.Tower also retains the option to acquire the existing Fab 7 building and land. If the company receives subsidy approval from Japan’s Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, it plans to purchase adjacent land to support an expansion of its 300mm manufacturing capacity. The company aims for the combined capacity of the current facility and the planned expansion to reach four times the present 300mm output in Uozu once the project is completed.Tower noted that its photonics technologies are already qualified and in volume production at the Uozu facility. The company expects photonics shipments to begin increasing as soon as new manufacturing tools are installed at the expanded site.Tower Semiconductor provides analog semiconductor foundry services serving markets such as consumer electronics, industrial applications, automotive, mobile devices, infrastructure, medical technology, and aerospace and defense.In separate developments, Tower recently reported record fourth-quarter revenue of $440 million, representing 14% year-over-year growth and an 11% sequential increase, beating market expectations. Adjusted earnings per share reached $0.78, exceeding analyst forecasts by $0.10. The company attributed much of the performance to strong demand in its silicon photonics business.Following the results, Benchmark raised its price target on Tower Semiconductor to $165 while maintaining a Buy rating.Tower also announced a development partnership with Lightwave Logic aimed at integrating high-speed optical modulator designs into its silicon photonics process design kit. The collaboration targets bandwidth capabilities of 110GHz and beyond, according to the company.These initiatives underscore Tower Semiconductor’s strategy to expand its technology capabilities and strengthen its position in advanced semiconductor manufacturing.Tower Semiconductor stock price

Tower Semiconductor rises 6% after record Q4 revenue beats forecastsFebruary 11, 2026 11:03 AM
IH Market News
Tower Semiconductor Ltd. (NASDAQ:TSEM) shares gained nearly 6% in pre-market trading Wednesday after the company posted record fourth-quarter 2025 revenue that topped Wall Street expectations, supported by strong growth in silicon photonics and improving margins.The specialty foundry reported Q4 revenue of $440.2 million, ahead of the $434.2 million consensus estimate. Sales increased 14% year over year and 11% sequentially. Adjusted earnings per share came in at $0.78, comfortably above the $0.69 analysts had projected. For full-year 2025, revenue rose 9% to $1.57 billion from $1.44 billion in 2024.“We ended 2025 having achieved our highest-ever quarterly revenue with a substantial increase in profitability,” said Russell Ellwanger, CEO of Tower Semiconductor. “This was driven by a strong base where each of our key technology platforms provided growth, combined with exceptional performance and strong incremental margins of our market-leading SiPho platforms.”Investors also reacted positively to the company’s expansion plans. Tower said it will invest an additional $270 million to expand its silicon photonics capacity and capabilities, lifting total SiPho and SiGe investments to $920 million. The company plans to scale its SiPho wafer capacity to more than five times its Q4 2025 shipment run-rate by Q4 2026, with over 70% of that capacity already reserved or in process through 2028 and supported by customer prepayments.For the first quarter of 2026, Tower forecast revenue of $412 million, plus or minus 5%, implying roughly 15% year-over-year growth.However, results were partly tempered by disclosure that Intel has indicated it does not intend to proceed under a 300mm wafer manufacturing agreement signed in September 2023. The companies are now in mediation, and Tower is redirecting affected customer volumes to its Fab7 facility in Japan.Tower Semiconductor stock price

Hi...saw my question on board other board??is only one winner in the photonics Industry, or enough to go around. Can one invest in only tower or also lwlg.
If one co doesn't use lwlg, does that mean they won't survive or they will just use another co, or is their no other co.
Yes I know ,I know I don't really understand the technology, ubiquitous is for all the photonics companies or only for lwlg

Um Humm...

SANTA CLARA, Calif., Aug. 16, 2023 – Intel Corporation (Nasdaq: INTC) today announced that it has mutually agreed with Tower Semiconductor (Nasdaq: TSEM) to terminate its previously disclosed agreement to acquire Tower due to the inability to obtain in a timely manner the regulatory approvals required under the merger agreement, dated Feb. 15, 2022.? In accordance with the terms of the merger agreement and in connection with its termination, Intel will pay a termination fee of $353 million to Tower.

“Our foundry efforts are critical to unlocking the full potential of IDM 2.0, and we continue to drive forward on all facets of our strategy,” said Pat Gelsinger, CEO of Intel. “We are executing well on our roadmap to regain transistor performance and power performance leadership by 2025, building momentum with customers and the broader ecosystem and investing to deliver the geographically diverse and resilient manufacturing footprint the world needs. Our respect for Tower has only grown through this process, and we will continue to look for opportunities to work together in the future.” ?

Stuart Pann, senior vice president and general manager of Intel Foundry Services (IFS), said, “Since its launch in 2021, Intel Foundry Services has gained traction with customers and partners, and we have made significant advancements toward our goal of becoming the second-largest global external foundry by the end of the decade. We are building a differentiated customer value proposition as the world’s first open system foundry, with the technology portfolio and manufacturing expertise that includes packaging, chiplet standards and software, going beyond traditional wafer manufacturing.”?

IFS has made significant strides over the past year as demonstrated by its more than 300% year-over-year revenue increase in the second quarter of 2023. This momentum is further illustrated by Intel’s recent agreement with Synopsys to develop a portfolio of intellectual property (IP) on Intel 3 and Intel 18A process nodes. Intel was also awarded the first phase of the U.S. Department of Defense’s Rapid Assured Microelectronics Prototypes - Commercial (RAMP-C) program, with five RAMP-C customers in design engagement on Intel 18A. In addition, Intel landed a multigeneration agreement with Arm to enable chip designers to build low-power compute system-on-chips (SoCs) on 18A, and Intel signed a strategic partnership with MediaTek to use IFS’ advanced process technologies.

It may have bottomed waiting for a lift from market and semiconductor sector. It has been tracking several similar techs. An upcoming turn around from APPL and China can lift this too.

It could dip to 14.85, I will load up another 200 shares and watch it go back up next few days. Here is hoping!

Well today your wish may come true...earnings didn't meet expectations but apparently guidance forward is good. Stock under $15 pre market I just added a few more lucky for me I don't have a large position at all but kind of sucks. Good luck to us all.

I wish I had more funds to add on that dip from yesterday before the earning report!

Good luck to all

I expect the market to rebound and our TSEM right along with it.

Holding my shares along with my other stocks.

Same!, similar minds! wow?!

I have UCTT....part of their drop was due too the fire at their plant in Korea I believe.

I also have some ICHR, now CY, and as little AMAT.

I believe this as well. I like UCTT and KEM also, both good companies greatly affected and should bounce in time 50% from their current price.

Agree 100%. I have been starting to load little by little on my fav semis mainly only starters for now. TSEM will be alright long term.

Geopolitical dynamics has greatly influenced many of my favorite semiconductor and electronic stocks. Much depends on these factors, our Tariffs laws and international reaction. I am holding for now and I will add on ongoing dips.

In at 17.77 1st entry with a starter.

$30 in a 6 months period. Upgrade. Very bullish

Today will be a great day for TSEM and the beginning of a bounce back up
