101 and glossary

• AI Barbell Strategy: Long Infrastructure, Short Disrupted Incumbents101ASML's EUV machines are required by every advanced fab.
• AI Infrastructure Outlook 2026: Layers, Risks, and Positioning101ASML's High-NA EUV is ramping but won't impact supply meaningfully until late 2026.
• DXY (US Dollar Index)GlossaryFor AI infrastructure investors, the DXY matters because many supply chain companies are non-US (TSMC in Taiwan, ASML in the Netherlands, Samsung in South Korea) — a strong dollar compresses their valuations when converted to USD terms.
• Economic MoatGlossaryIn AI investing, Closelooknet distinguishes between physics-based moats (ASML's EUV monopoly, TSMC's fabrication lead) and software moats (which agentic AI may erode).
• EUV (Extreme Ultraviolet Lithography)GlossaryASML is the sole supplier of EUV machines.
• LithographyGlossaryThe chip-manufacturing step that uses light to pattern circuits onto silicon; ASML's EUV monopoly defines the leading edge.
• Non-US Tech: The Widest Valuation Gap in a Decade101The standard explanation — US companies deserve premiums for growth and innovation — ignores that many of the most critical AI supply chain companies are non-US: ASML (Netherlands), TSMC (Taiwan), SK Hynix (Korea), BESI (Netherlands)…
• PhotolithographyGlossaryThe leading edge requires extreme ultraviolet (EUV) light, which is the source of ASML's strategic position.
