Texas Instruments (TXN-Q) has received mixed reviews from analysts. While some highlight its strong recent performance, particularly after issuing favorable guidance and a subsequent share price jump of 10%, there are concerns about its overall valuation and market position. Despite being regarded as a top pick, experts note that the company is seen as fully priced and lacking significant exposure to data centers, which limits its growth potential. Additionally, while its industrial and automotive segments are performing well, the stock has shown a trend of flatlining before the recent surge. Overall, analysts agree that although the future outlook may improve due to supply constraints in the computer chip market, the technical chart indicates it remains range-bound, presenting risks if it breaks below critical levels.

COMMENT

They deliver poor conference calls stressing things like too much inventory and not enough demand gives analysts little to work with. They trash their own company. Shares sell after these calls only to rebound.

WEAK BUY

They are the king of the analog chips, used from washing machines to TVs. Analog will always be around, though haven't participated much in AI> A stable stocks that pays around 2.8% $188 is his price target.

TOP PICK

This is a conservative play in the tech market. It has a great franchise in the semi-conductor market. It is the king of the analog segment which is not as volatile on the pricing side. In the real world not everything is digital and analog chips are everywhere. Its chips manage power requirements, etc. as well as the micro-controls segment on the wireless side. In its its April 25th report it increased guidance as well as providing great top and bottom lines.

BUY

He sold higher-beta semi stocks for lower-beta tech stocks like TXN last fall.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Feb 02/22, Down 2%) Compared to other tech, this is a winner. It's boring--analog products to manage power in electronics, and embedded processing which are used in cars, fridges and other electronics. They make semis in these boring segments, so it's done well. They will build a new plant in Texas in 2025 and will be the king of these processors. It's now fairly valued now.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Dec 21/21, Down 13%) Has sold shares in the company. Thinks it might be good for a long term investor (despite not owning shares).

DON'T BUY

You want to buy analog chips that favour low-grade, industrial applications. The massive flow of funds into semis is now unwinding significantly. Primary trade on semis is a long-term short. A buy could be 18 months away at least. His preferred stock is ADI.

PARTIAL BUY

Trades at 16x earnings. They will make their quarter. It's too cheap to ignore. You can start buying a little.

BUY

They would've reported a great quarter if not for the Chinese Covid lockdown, but still a good report.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Dec 21/21, Up 2.03%) Really well run. Will do well with return to domestic production. He sold on a change of heart, thinking that orders had been brought forward. He'd revisit at some point.

BUY

They have a diverse chipmaker that are sold to industrials, the internet of things and cars. It boasts good profitability, valuation and growth at these levels.

TOP PICK

Massive company that flies under the radar. Attractive, perpetual compounders. Financial safety, high ROIC, enviable capital allocation flexibility. Very sound company. King of both embedded and analog processing, which goes in fridges and dryers, etc. Embedded processing is about micro-controllers. Not as sexy as others, but they're in absolutely everything. Tremendous cashflow. Price target of $214. Yield is 2.52%.

BUY

Has been a fantastic company. It is a semi-conductor company that has been run like a business right from the beginning. Many other semi's are adopting its business model. Buy on weakness and hold. If looking for more leverage consider LAM and KLA which are the 'picks and shovels' of the gold rush in this sector.

TOP PICK

They make most of their chips in-house, which makes sense during supply shortages. If we see a growth in the real economy (not metaverse), all the sensors in devices like your garage door opener or TV remote, then TI will see a huge benefit. They boast thousands of customers and products, and strong cash flow. (Analysts’ price target is $202.46)

BUY

Instead of ADI, he owns TXN, which does digital and analog chips. One of the most profitable of all of the chip manufacturers, and this is why he owns it.
