| PAST TOP PICK | 14.930 | Ian Ainsworth | (A Top Pick Jan 10/11. Down 28.4%.) Stock is rebounding now and still looks interesting from the perspective of the next stage in the development of tablets. | 2012-02-01 | |
| HOLD | 14.610 | Ian Ainsworth | Sold his holdings when the traction of non-iPad tablets was not there. Dominated the 1st versions of those tablets. Also has been some erosion at the low end of the graphics processors. Short term, there are risks because of their discrete graphical processor units on workstations. Would probably look at buying when he sees how the next quarter or 2 evolves. Well positioned in the long-term as they are based on the Arm processor which is probably going to win a lot of share from Intel (INTC-Q). | 2011-10-12 | |
| BUY | 14.221 | Mike S. Newton, CIM FCSI | Graphics chip company. 2 turning points would have been when Intel (INTC-Q) settled their dispute, a good sign of endorsement. Also believes their chips are used in Playbook, Galaxy and some of the other portable tablets. Looks like it's going to have a new lease on life. | 2011-07-19 | |
| SELL | 15.500 | Ian Ainsworth | Ran up dramatically when they were going to be the chip of choice on a bunch of new tablets that were coming out. When Apple (AAPL-Q) brought out iPad 2, it basically put everyone out of business. | 2011-06-28 | |
| DON'T BUY | 17.320 | John O'Connell, CFA | High speed chip business. He is looking at moving to US technology. This one has always been a real volatile player. Consumer technology market is in such turmoil because of ipad tablet, which is getting very competitive and has hurt their space of Notebook. Prefers Intel (INTC-Q). | 2011-04-11 | |
| Comment | 23.390 | Stan Wong | There’s a lot of interest in the semiconductor space. This one has taken off in the last few days and from a technical perspective is quite over bought. Looks interesting but there are others he would look at that are more interesting. | 2011-01-13 | |
| TOP PICK | 20.631 | Ian Ainsworth | Gone up quite a bit in the last little while, but coming off quite a low base. Reengineered itself to be dominant in the smart phone market. Strength is graphics. Threatening to move with ARM into the server space. This company has been put back on the road track. | 2011-01-10 | |
| Comment | 35.980 | John O'Connell, CFA | You have to be aware that they are serving a very small segment of the chip market. A very competitive business. These companies are going through big product cycles and you have to be careful. If they miss, they can lose in a big way. | 2007-10-04 | |
| DON'T BUY | 29.270 | Peter Hofstra | Probably fully valued. | 2006-04-11 | |
| TOP SHORT | 26.700 | Howard Sutton | A pairs trade, short NVIDIA and go long on ATI. Same types of Co., but valuations with each other are out of whack and they should converge. Wait to see if NVIDIA's new product gives them a higher boost. | 2004-04-08 | |
| DON'T BUY | 17.910 | Kyle McKay | There is a transition in the graphic chips sector. Have just lost their X-box2 to ATI. Continuing to lose market share in other sectors as well. | 2003-08-28 | |
| TOP SHORT | 23.510 | Howard Sutton | This is a dual pick, long on ATY-T and short on NVDA-Q. Nvidia is having difficulty getting decent yields out of their fabrication facility, so margins are hurt. ATI is clicking on all cylinders. Use STOP LOSSES. | 2003-07-04 | |
| DON'T BUY | 14.290 | Mike Weir | When Nvidia is up, ATI is down and vice versa, so treat them as trading stocks against each other. ATI is the current favourite. | 2003-03-20 | |
| PAST TOP PICK | 10.460 | Brian Acker, CA | Was a top pick on Sept 11. No change.) Would buy again at its low. | 2002-10-24 | |
| TOP PICK | 11.090 | Brian Acker, CA | Expects some good sales. Good price. Could double or triple. | 2002-09-11 | |
| DON'T BUY | 10.690 | Brad Willock | Product is in decline compared to ATI. | 2002-08-16 | |
| DON'T BUY | 36.920 | Brad Willock | Investigation by SCC. | 2002-04-19 | |
| WAIT | 40.760 | Howard Sutton | Wants better visibility. | 2002-04-09 | |
| DON'T BUY | 77.110 | Jeff Morrison | In a competitive market. A leader. Too risky. | 2001-07-19 |
