US business has slowed by TEL, but most of their growth comes from China. They have many clients. Also, data centres need their sensors and there are more and more centres. Despite a weaker topline, their margins and productivity are improving

His entry in the car market. Connectors in combustion engines, more in hybrids, and even more in full electric. Likes this exposure better than having to bet on one car company. Also makes highly engineered connectors for data centres, seeing substantial growth with AI craze and cloud computing strength. Yield is 1.8%.

Its sensors are a good way to play AI. A car like TSLA has 8x the sensors as a traditional car. Massive operating leverage.
