Applied Materials (AMAT) has been facing significant fluctuations in stock price, despite strong fundamentals, including safe usage of debt and expectations of DRAM's significant growth by 2025. The company saw a bigger market fall but still forecasts growth momentum through 2025. Some view the underperformance as a buying opportunity and AMAT's fundamentals ensure interest from institutional investors. However, it did face some setbacks due to capital expenditure cuts in memory spending. Despite the stock's slide, Applied Materials continues making significant strides, expanding its EPIC platform to drive advanced chip packaging and energy-efficient computing. It remains a strong contender in AI chip leadership. Investors are still drawn to AMAT despite market volatility. Analysts updated their estimates following the release of the company's full-year results. However, concerns remain over its reliance on international sales and shorting by institutional investors. AMAT's Q4 earnings and revenue topped estimates, however, some analysts maintain a 'Hold' rating citing mixed outlook, while others recommend it as a good investment and predict robust growth in returns.
