Move over Nvidia, UBS says this chip stock will be the fastest-growing over the next few years
Little-known chipmaker SiTime could be the next big name in the semiconductor universe, according to UBS. Analyst Timothy Arcuri initiated coverage of the company with a buy rating and $260 price target, which indicates about 20% upside ahead. Arcuri thinks SiTime is a leading precision timing company, which in the semiconductor industry refers to devices that generate and control signals needed for electronic circuits. These are vital for the operation, data transmission and other actions in semis. "With new silicon based solutions, SiTime is disrupting the timing market – the "heartbeat" of the electronics world – and we believe will be one of the fastest growing companies in all of semis over the next few years, led in part by AI," Arcuri said in a note to clients. "SiTime's leadership position within the MEMS timing market has led to design wins at Apple and NVDA that we believe are catalysts for 36%/30% Y/Y total revenue growth in CY26/CY27e, above Street consensus by 11%/3%." According to Arcuri, one of SiTime's biggest growth opportunities should come from its partnership with Apple. Apple this year made SiTime its exclusive supplier of micro-electro-mechanical systems, oscillators for its in-house modem as the iPhone maker replaced traditional quartz crystal oscillators. Unlike quartz crystal oscillators, MEMS are smaller, more energy-efficient and precise oscillators that can be integrated onto a chip. It's "an opportunity so big that we believe it alone could account for nearly all of the Street's incremental revenue through 2026," he said, referring to the Apple partnership. "SiTime has become the only one-stop shop MEMS timing supplier across the industry capable of addressing system-level clocking applications and is unique in its ability to bring together MEMS/analog/subsystems expertise to build timing systems that do not exist today." SiTime's stock rallied earlier this year on the inclusion of its oscillators in Apple's iPhone 16e. The company's oscillators are also in other Apple products, such as the Apple Pencil Pro. Moreover, Arcuri sees SiTime as a standout artificial intelligence play with room to grow. "In addition to a strong and growing AAPL position, it is also unique among peers in its market cap range given its very high leverage to AI, which we estimate could be pushing 35% of revenue by 2027. We see this year's 40% revenue growth continuing at least through 2026 and likely beyond as it grows into a large served market relative to its current size," the analyst said. SITime isn't widely covered, but most who do are bullish. LSEG data shows that five of the seven analysts covering the stock rate it a buy or strong buy.

Warren Buffett Warns Not To Get ‘Blinded' By ‘The Thrill of the Chase' Because It's Too Easy To Lose It All On ‘Consequences of the Catch'
Renowned investor Warren Buffett is well-known for his straightforward insights into corporate behavior and investment strategies. Among his numerous memorable statements, Buffett once cautioned, "The thrill of the chase blinded the pursuers to the consequences of the catch." Through this succinct observation, Buffett underscores the risks that companies and investors face when driven by excessive enthusiasm to close deals or pursue acquisitions without adequately evaluating potential consequences. Buffett, who serves as Chairman and CEO of Berkshire Hathaway, originally included this remark in his 1982 letter to shareholders. At that time, corporate mergers and acquisitions were increasingly popular, frequently driven by the excitement of rapid growth rather than strategic logic or financial discipline. Buffett's analogy of the "thrill of the chase" refers explicitly to the heightened emotions executives often experience when seeking mergers or acquiring new companies, while "the consequences of the catch" represent the less glamorous realities and long-term responsibilities that inevitably follow. More News from Barchart Why This Cannabis Penny Stock Could Be Wall Street's Next Meme Trade Breakout Apple Stock Is Gaining Momentum, Is AAPL Stock a Buy? Peter Thiel-Backed Bullish Is About to IPO. Should You Buy BLSH Stock? Get exclusive insights with the FREE Barchart Brief newsletter. Subscribe now for quick, incisive midday market analysis you won't find anywhere else. Buffett's own reputation as an authoritative figure on the subject stems from his disciplined approach to investing. Often described as one of the greatest investors of his generation, Buffett's record of steadily building wealth by patiently evaluating long-term value rather than seeking short-term excitement lends credibility to his advice. Throughout his career at Berkshire Hathaway, Buffett has consistently prioritized careful evaluation and intrinsic business value over rapid expansion or growth at any cost. The historical context of Buffett's quote further illuminates its significance. During the early 1980s, the corporate landscape witnessed numerous high-profile acquisitions driven by management's eagerness to achieve immediate market impact or increased size. Buffett, recognizing the dangers of short-sighted strategies, repeatedly emphasized caution. In his view, companies frequently underestimated or overlooked integration challenges, financial burdens, cultural clashes, and strategic misalignments, leading to damaging outcomes once initial excitement faded. Today, Buffett's caution remains highly relevant. Modern markets continue to experience waves of acquisition-driven growth, fueled by investor expectations, abundant liquidity, and competitive pressures. Tech startups, established enterprises, and investment groups alike often rush into mergers and acquisitions, attracted by the immediate rewards of expansion or dominance. However, as Buffett's advice underscores, failure to fully assess long-term integration complexities or financial risks can lead to lasting setbacks or significant losses. High-profile corporate mergers in recent decades have repeatedly demonstrated the wisdom embedded in Buffett's observation. Prominent examples include transactions where initial enthusiasm overshadowed due diligence, resulting in operational struggles, declining shareholder value, or even regulatory challenges. Companies that have avoided these pitfalls typically maintained a disciplined approach, carefully weighing both the immediate benefits and long-term implications before making commitments. In essence, Warren Buffett's cautionary statement serves as a timeless reminder that, while enthusiasm and ambition can fuel growth, unchecked excitement poses considerable risks. The consequences of acquisitions, Buffett argues, deserve as much careful consideration as the deals themselves. As markets evolve and new waves of corporate transactions emerge, this advice remains a critical consideration for investors and business leaders alike.

Apple's return to AI includes new products and a tabletop robot
What's happened? Apple's journey into the AI world has been a bumpy one. The company faced criticism for its failure to deliver on an improved version of Siri after numerous setbacks and delays, but a report late Wednesday afternoon from Bloomberg's Mark Gurman suggests Apple is preparing to make a comeback. Tim Cook, Apple's CEO, said 'The product pipeline — which I can't talk about — it's amazing, guys. It's amazing.' The long-rumored smark speaker with a display is set to arrive next year. One of the rumored devices is a tabletop robot that can turn and swivel to face whoever is speaking to it. Why this is important: If successful, this plan would mark a new level of innovation in Apple's products and help restore customer trust after the issues that have plagued the company throughout the past year. According to insiders, this hardware pipeline is a key element of turning around Apple's AI presence. Take the information with a grain of salt; as these products still haven't been officially announced, the expected design and function could change or be scrapped before release. Recommended Videos Why should I care? The new products could improve Apple's HomeKit lineup. A souped-up Siri would strengthen functionality across all of Apple's devices, while the tabletop robot opens the door to group FaceTime calls and much more. According to Gurman, 'the hallmark of the device is an entirely new version of the Siri voice assistant that can inject itself into conversations between multiple people.' The device will 'act like a person in the room' and provide contextual information, such as suggesting restaurants in a conversation about where to go for dinner. The hope is that Siri will act similarly to OpenAI's voice mode for back-and-forth conversation. Siri might be getting a new personality through a project dubbed 'Bubbles' that would give the assistant a visual representation on display, similar to the notorious Clippy of Microsoft Office fame. Apple HomeKit has never matched the power of Amazon Alexa or Google Home, but this upgrade has the potential to make it a much stronger contender.
