Fairchild Semiconductor International (FCS)

CAPS Rating:
**

The Company is focused on developing, manufacturing and selling power analog, power discrete and certain non-power semiconductor solutions to a range of end market customers.

Rating a stock in CAPS consists of three components:

Your call - Will this stock outperform or underperform the S&P 500? Successful picks are measured in terms of whether or not you were correct and by how many percentage points.

Your time frame - A guideline for other members to see whether your thinking is short or long-term. Time frame is also used to calculate the stock rating, but is not used in the scoring of your pick.

Your pitch - Here's your chance to offer more detailed thoughts, analysis, concerns, or the rationale behind your call. The pitch is optional and may be added later.

Each time you rate a stock, CAPS updates the community intelligence for the company, which may or may not change its CAPS rating. For more information, visit the Help tab at the top of the page.

The semi-conductor industry is cyclical and currently the cycle is crashing and burning! Do you honestly think there are going to be a big surge in electronic products/equipment sales in the near future (semiconductors are needed for these products)? I sure don't. The economy is crap, thus this company is not going to be increasing sales. I'm short the whole industry...Check the chart, down down down.

My gut says "add this to my portfolio". My logic says "why not?". The future of this company is like it's past, it's been around awhile.
