The thesis — published October 29, 2025
Lam Research makes the tools that chip factories need for AI. A major bank (UBS) called it a favorite overlooked pick, and a value-style screen gave it a perfect score after sales rose 28% versus last year. Price trends look healthy, with more buyers than usual, even if things look a bit hot. Over the next 0-3 months, strong demand and a healthy backlog point to buying on pullbacks to control risk.
