Skyworks Solutions Inc. and Motorola

dots Posted on October 10, 2005 , filed under Stocks | Print This Post

I bought MOT, Motorola Inc. at $14.55 on April 18th, 2005 and sold the stock too soon on May 13th, 2005 at $16.08. Motorola has done a superb job at releasing new designs that are in high demand by consumers. Motorola’s stock has enjoyed a good rebound and I believe the stock will hover between $21-$25 for the next 6 months-1year. Instead of investing in Motorola, I would look at SWKS, Skyworks Solutions Inc. as an alternative. Skyworks Solutions, Inc. engages in the design, development, manufacture, and marketing of analog, mixed signal, and digital semiconductors for mobile communications applications.

Skyworks is a semiconductor company that produces a large part of the chips that power Motorola phones. The company has recently dropped its revenue guidance for its fiscal fourth quarter causing the stock to drop. I believe the sell off is overdone. I may look at purchasing SWKS in the $5-$5.50 range. I will continue to research the company a bit longer before posting my analysis and price targets.

Hi Andy!

I found your blog a few days ago and find it very interesting. Keep on going ;-)

Well, your timing yesterday with skyworks (SWKS) was really nice. Today the stock declines on revenue cutting and is getting slowly into your buy range… not bad ! Hopefully SWKS can hold the support around 5 to 5,20…
I will waite for a reversal signal.

Greetings out of germany and have a nice day.
