		<description><![CDATA[Teradyne, Inc. (TER) is a leading provider of automated test equipment. The company&#8217;s second quarter earnings beat the Zacks Consensus, although revenue growth was sluggish. Forward guidance indicates slack demand, particularly for back-end testing equipment. While there could be pockets of strength, we think that the negative mix of business, relatively lower exposure to the memory segment and the uncertainty at semiconductor manufacturers will impact results in the next few quarters. As a result, we think that investors are likely to discount the product lineup, leaner cost structure and strong balance sheet. The company is expected to return earnings growth of 11.9% compared to the peer group average of 12.6%. We believe there is further downside to the shares and we are therefore downgrading the shares to Sell. Our price ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Agilent Technologies’ (A) first quarter earnings beat the Zacks Consensus by 3 cents, or 5.3%. Revenue growth, expansion in Electronic Measurement segment margins, a lower interest expense and a lower tax rate helped drive results in the last quarter. Revenue Agilent’s revenue was down 3.3% sequentially (normal seasonality) and up 25.6% year over year. Excluding the impact of Varian, Agilent’s revenues were down 3.6% sequentially and up 25.2% from last year, more or less in line with management’s expectations. Currency had a slight positive impact on Agilent’s Life Sciences and Chemical Analysis comparisons and was slightly negative to Electronic Measurement comparisons (when compared with year-ago results). The overall impact of currency on Agilent’s year-over-year comparisons was neutral. Agilent stated that logistics issues caused Varian-based revenue to fall $30 million below ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[KLA-Tencor Corp.’s (KLAC) second-quarter earnings beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 6 cents. With the broad turnaround in the semiconductor capital equipment market underway, some of the other equipment makers, such as Research (LRCX) and Teradyne (TER) also reported stronger results. Consequently, we are very positive about the largest equipment company Applied Materials (AMAT) which is expected to report within the next few weeks. Revenue Revenue of $478.3 million was up 8.6% sequentially and 54.5% year over year. The sequential strength was due to a larger section of customers increasing their capex investments, particularly in advanced technology. The technical complexity in manufacturing semiconductors and increasingly challenging yield issues are the drivers behind these investments. New products also helped growth in the last quarter. Products generated 73% of total revenue, an ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Novellus Systems’ (NVLS) first quarter earnings beat the Zacks consensus by $0.03. Revenue beat by 3.8%. Revenue Revenue of $276.2 million was up 13.1% sequentially, 179.3% year over year and over the high-end of the revised guidance range. This reflects continued demand from foundries and increased expenditure on the memory side, driven by strengthening prices for NAND and DRAM. Management also stated that the current strength could be attributed to the PC refresh cycle, growing demand for cell phones (particularly smartphones) and the launch of other MIDs, such as Apple, Inc’s (AAPL) iPad. Revenue by Geography Asia remained the largest contributor in the last quarter, with a 68% revenue share, growing 8.3% sequentially and 512.6% year over year. This was the second straight quarter that revenues from the region grew ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Last week, without much fanfare, technology investors marked the 10 year anniversary of the top of the NASDAQ. I know. You don&#8217;t want to be reminded. On Mar 10, 2000, as everyone knows, the NASDAQ peaked at 5048, having doubled from the year before. It had a forward P/E ratio, depending on what sources you look at, of over 200 times earnings. In contrast, the S&#38;P 500 at the same time had a P/E ratio just north of 40, which is still sky-high expensive but not nearly what was happening in Techland.

		<description><![CDATA[Teradyne Inc. (TER) reported fourth quarter earnings that beat the Zacks Consensus estimate by 5 cents. The company has a history of positive surprises, and the net negative surprise of 2.12% in the four preceding quarters is skewed by the Dec 2008 quarter, when it was severely hit by the recession. Moreover, estimates are on an uptrend, indicating a progressively improving performance over the past few quarters. The Zacks Consensus estimate for the Dec quarter was 15 cents, representing an upside potential of 13.33%. However, results were significantly better that expected. Revenue Revenue of $267.1 million was up 1.9% sequentially and 37.1% year over year. Revenue was within the guided range of $255-270 million and more or less in line with consensus expectations. This was the third straight quarter of ]]></description>
