Recent news
most recent scored articles · the chip is the article’s score · click to openAn outside analyst rates Lam Research (LRCX) a 'Cautious Buy,' pointing to long-term demand for advanced chip-making and packaging equipment. The stock, near $340, trades at about 36 times next year's expected earnings, well above its five-year average, meaning investors are already paying for strong growth.
Lam Research's stock has gained about 550% over the past five years on enthusiasm for semiconductor equipment and AI infrastructure, and the article questions whether today's price is still supported by what the business is actually earning.
The article covers Lam Research's quarterly financial call held on October 21, 2026, alongside Bank of America naming the stock one of its top semiconductor picks, and discusses what Micron's signals of rising memory-equipment spending could mean for demand for Lam's chipmaking equipment. The full analysis is cut off in the body provided.
Lam Research's stock rose. No specific catalyst was identified.t. The article notes that record memory pricing supports that spending case, while cautioning that supplier commitments are not the same as actual orders for fabrication tools.
Lam Research opened a 470,000-square-foot logistics warehouse in Livermore, California, its largest U.S. distribution facility, sitting on 10 acres under a single roof. The hub will serve its nearby Livermore factory and Fremont labs, and the company plans to add more than 200 jobs there by 2027.
