Applied Materials (AMAT) continues its impressive performance. Despite a slight miss in sales, their five-year gain is nearly 200% and returns on capital have been striking. Morgan Stanley still gives a hold rating, foresighting stable performance. However, there are concerns over shrinking China sales and soft revenue outlook. Nevertheless, the leading-edge chip demand is driving good results. Analysts from Morgan Stanley and Wells Fargo have also boosted AMAT's price target and maintained its 'buy' rating respectively. AMAT surpassed Q2 earnings estimates but mixed reaction to the numbers have slightly affected the stock's performance. The company is empowering the future of AI chip-making and sees a 40% DRAM Revenue Growth in 2025, which would indicate a good outperform in the biotech market, especially in semiconductor sectors. AMAT's declaration of a $0.46 per share quarterly dividend reflects on its sound financial health. The company has also made a strategic investment in BE Semiconductor Industries.
