Dynamic Top Pick List Update February 2026: Removing ASMi; Adding UCB
After today's changes (ASMi out, UCB in), we maintain a balanced approach in our Dynamic Top Pick List, with a particular emphasis on value stocks that have been overlooked. Our defensive holdings are overweight, including real estate, which stands to benefit from lower interest rates. We remove ASMi from our Dynamic Top Pick List as the recent share price performance has driven the valuation meaningfully ahead of fundamentals. Since early December, FY27 diluted EPS expectations have risen by a...

What returns to expect on Cloud AI?
After a string of multi-GW contracts and capex announcements, the attractiveness of cloud AI returns remains a hot question amongst investors. In this report, we build a simple framework to answer that question. We estimate Cloud AI returns from CSP disclosures and what we know about large real-world contracts, and benchmark them against what we know about the economics of traditional cloud.

ING Benelux Favourites/Aedifica, Ageas, ASM International, Basic-Fit, ...
We refresh our ING Benelux Favourites list. We apply a fundamental bottom up approach in which we select stocks which provide the best upside within our Benelux coverage universe and these stocks need clear catalysts. Additions/deletions: We add the following names to the ING Benelux Favourites list: Ageas: Ageas has done multiple deals; its most recent purchase of the 25% stake BNP Paribas had in its Belgian ops, is an accretive deal and we believe makes the Belgian operations ready for a pot...

ASM International/Back on its growth path/BUY
ASM's 4Q25 order intake beat has transformed the 3Q25 disappointment into just a one-off timing hiccup within a very strong long-term growth path. TSMC's FY26 capex beat underlines that AI strength and ongoing technology transitions are key tailwinds for ASM. We expect the company to significantly outgrow its peers. We meaningfully increase our estimates, up our DCF-based target price to €900 per share (from €700) and reiterate our BUY. ASM remains on the ING Benelux Favourites list.
