Entropic Communications (NASDAQ:ENTR)

They have been hit hard due to this last quarterly filing. But I believe that this company will continue to grow in the next few years ahead. So a few investors got out when it was high, but I like to find good companies, wait until there is some unfavorable news and buy it up for an eventually triple pay. The will have great new sometime and will quickly recover. I like that generally their quarterly growth rate is reasonably steady, which just means that their annual growth rate will continue to stay on target. I also have my own metric which I call eps/slope to price ratio which give me a price for the earnings growth and this stock measures competitively. Of course, all metrics based on history is just hind sight, and there are no guarantees, but there are other companies whose hind sight is a lot worse. So hopefully, this hedges one's investment.

Entropic is tightly tethered to the digital living room, as both its networking and media assets play into the rise of digital video. It's a hotly contested market where nothing comes easy, but the Trident purchase broadened Entropic's target markets enough to keep the company relevant for the foreseeable future. And the company's debt-free balance sheet helps it withstand market storms that would have killed a stand-alone Trident.

I like Needham's call here so much that I'm playing along with a bullish CAPScall of my own. We missed the market bottom, but there's plenty of bounce left in this spring-loaded stock.

There is no better company out there trading under $10 a share that is better positioned to rapidly grow revenues.The Trident acquisition only makes things looks that much brighter. Look for more analyst upgrades in the next 30 days!! There is a lot happening with ENTR.

The recent acquisition of Trident Micro Systems is going to fuel growth for Entropic, giving them an entry into Asia/Pacific markets. The problems with decreased orders from Verizon and DirecTV are now behind them, and the stock should be on a steady rise once more.

Massively undervalued.

Once the Trident acquisition fully shakes out, Entropic will bounce back up, but it might take some time.

Way ahead of Broadcom with MoCA 2.0 and doing pretty well. Definitely under priced where it stands now especially with their cash on hand. It should go back into the 8s sometime soon and further in the future.

Entropic is trading at a small premium to their cash of 180 million. Mocha 2 has 0 competition and competitors are 2 years away from cloning it according to the confrence call. Very limited downside with an extrordinary upside.

Verizon is still rolling out its FiOS network in its targeted markets. It's buying up all the fiber optic cable it can from Corning (GLW) such that there's a shortage now. Yesterday's selloff was a "baby with the bathwater" moment. I see Entropic rebounding from these lows, and advancing in the coming quarters.

price too low

Wireless is in a growth spurt and ENTR is a major player in that market. They have no debt and are able to grow no matter what the interest rates do in the next year.

quarterly earnings up up short squeeze going

Until other companies succeed in this business, Entropic is still the leader of this new market.

stock has been hit a lot recently. strong growth potential, currently undervalued, strong market share, recently entered the chinese market.

I believe in the short term, this stock is a short squeeze candidate, so I'm entering my pick. However, I also note that the company is debt-free, profitable, has buy ratings on it by analysts, seems to be doing pretty well on cash and A/R, and has a decent amount of insider ownership.

I give it a 50/50 chance of being bought out, probably by Broadcom.

strong growth, no end in sight

Could be a nice short squeeze... Looks like it is gaining some traction.
