TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly

We reiterate MPWR as a TOP PICK.  As an analog semiconductor chip maker specializing in integrated power management systems, these chip are the backbone in many electronic applications.  Recently reported earnings showed an 18% increase in revenues, and a five year annual average growth of 29% in EPS  and 25% increase in dividends.  The company is generating $700 million in free cash flow, while growing cash reserves, aggressively buying back shares, and generating a 64% ROE.  We recommend trailing up the stop (from $600) to $750, looking to achieve $1200 - upside potential over 20%.  Yield 0.6%

(Analysts’ price target is $1217.31)

TOP PICK

MWPR makes integrated power management systems for semiconductors.  Its revenue growth over the past five years has exceed 25% annually and last year's EPS grew by 29%.  We like that cash reserves are growing while shares are aggressively bought back, helping to support a ROE of 64%.  We recommend setting a stop-loss at $600, looking to achieve $1200 -- upside potential of 34%.  Yield 0.7%

SELL

He just sold it. He had bought it as a China and an AI play. Q3 earnings were decent with sales up 22%, but the market sold this off anyway. Then, research came out to say that their circuits did not integrate well with the new Blackwell GPUs. Shares tanked. He did a stop loss. He lost 30% on this momentum name. Move on.

COMMENT

Share were up huge yesterday, which was the time to buy it. Now now.
