MFI top 50 screener match. The broad thinking is that semis are entering a cyclical downturn, so P/Es are extremely low across the board (as evidenced by Trailing P/E 6.6, Forward P/E 10). But LRCX has a ton of cash on hand to weather the downturn.EV/EBITDA = 3.8, $2B of cash on hand with only $750M of LT debt.Cons: 3.8% of the float is sold short, no insider buying.
