ADI is up 14% since I picked it, vs 7% for the S&P. I still think ADI is quite undervalued, like its peers Maxim (MXIM) and Linear Technology (LLTC). ADI is the market leader in data converters and amplifiers, which account for 40% of worldwide reven...

Nice cash cushion and the company is committed to stock repurchase. The inventory should be at a manageable level in 2007. Will have to keep an eye on gross margins and expense, but the management seems to be on top of it.

ADI stumbled last quarter, but the market reaction was very much an over-reaction. Look for all semi's to rebound over the next year as consumer spending continues to grow and demand for chips rebounds.

The stock ADI has paid out a dividend of $0.18. The starting price for your pick has been adjusted to reflect the value of this dividend payout.

Forward P.E. of 19 with a long-term growth rate of 20% seems to be a fair deal.

ADI is a cash king. http://www.fool.com/investing/general/2007/02/26/3-more-kings-of-cash.aspx
