Jim:
Major mea culpa
time… Last
night,
TriQuint Semiconductor, Inc.
(TQNT),
a semiconductor
company that
makes chips for
mobile phones…
which I
originally
recommended at
$5.79 on June
12th… and then
mistakenly I
guess in
retrospect
recommended it
at $7.39 not
long after… got
slammed when it
reported a
quarter last
night that
missed the
streets
consensus
revenue
estimate… issued
really
disappointing
guidance… warned
that a Korean
handset maker,
thought to be
Samsung, would
slow production…
TriQuint’s stock
fell from $8.10,
I had a big gain
on it for
everybody, what
did I do… it
went down to
$5.854 today..
.that is a 28%
beheading. ..
luckily I never
put this one in
the mobile
internet index…
I should have
been reminding
you to take
profits in
TriQuint… this
is a perfect
example of why I
say take money
off of the table
when you have
those big
percentage
gains...
So now what do we
do?… Part of
TriQuint’s problem
is that it is not
all smart phones…
its legacy business
is ordinary dumb
mobile phones… and
you know those dumb
mobile phones are
not growing… so
there is a
transition going on
that has hurt the
ordinary phone side
of things… but I do
not think the issue
justifies the huge
drop in the stock…
practically back to
where it was when I
first recommended
it…. plus the Korean
handset maker that
is cutting back
seems to be an
isolated one time
innocent… not
something that could
derail the smart
phone revolution.
I think that
TriQuint is still
part of a great long
term theme… it is
still surfing the
mobile internet
tsunami…and remember
everyone is surfing
now, including
TriQuint … and that
means the sell off
in the stock is an
opportunity to buy…
the fact is that
TriQuint generates
more revenue per
handset for its
components in smart
phones… including
the iPhone…
which has three of
TriQuint’s transmit
modules vs. one
ordinary phone…
hence the problems
with the ordinary
phones… the demand
for smart phones is
improving… and it is
improving TriQuint’s
gross margins too…
what it makes after
sales… and the
strength of the
smart phones should
also allow the
companies sequential
handset growth to
get back to 8% to
10% in the fourth
quarter.
.90 cents in cash…
come on, like my
colleague Dave
Pelletier who writes
the “Stocks Under
$10” newsletter at
TheStreet.com where
I am Chairman, and
he just recommended
people buy some
TriQuint for the
under $10 portfolio
today… I think that
TriQuint is
attractive… now,
TriQuint’s results
also took down two
semiconductor stocks
that do belong to
the mobile internet
tsunami…
Skyworks Solutions (SWKS),
that is David
Aldrich, the CEO…
and
RF Micro (RFMD)…
they were down 4%
and 5% respectively…
those are big hits…
both companies do a
lot of business with
Samsung.. that seems
to be the problem…
but after today’s
thrashing the
concerns about a
reduction in orders,
I believe, are
priced into both
stocks.
I think that you are
getting a chance to
buy these two smart
phone components
much cheaper than
you should… they are
just collateral
damage from
TriQuint… and since
the mobile internet
tsunami is a massive
multi year theme… so
big that I wrote
about it at length
in my new book,
Getting
Back To Even…
the worst that
happens is that
Skyworks Solutions
and RF Micro go down
further and you get
to buy some more at
lower and better
prices.
Here is the bottom
line…

Bottom
Line:
I wish that I had
told you to take
some
TriQuint Semiconductor, Inc.
(TQNT)
off of the table
when it was trading
at $8... you have
got to start doing
this stuff without
me… see, I was
piggish… pigs get
slaughtered… but now
that the stock has
come down so much,
and taking
Skyworks Solutions Inc. (SWKS)
and
RF Micro Devices Inc. (RFMD)
with it… I think all
three of these phone
part plays are buys.
