CAPS Rating:
*****

The Company designs, develops and markets semiconductors that are critical components of flat panel displays.

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 stock market is largely ignoring the recent oil spike as something that cannot persist in the current stage of the business cycle but this is in turn feeding higher oil prices. The stock market is about to realize where oil is going and fall; and most affected will be today's leading IT sectors.

Massive growth potential, massive dividend, excellent balance sheet, stupid low P/E. Along with SUTR and SPIL, this is one of the most undervalued equities in the markets right now.

This stock is extremely oversold and is due for a rebound with strong momentum behind it. Should trade around $4.00 in a month or so.
