Quinn Bolton has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors that highlight the positive trajectory of NXP Semiconductors. The company’s recent performance has exceeded expectations, with management expressing increased confidence in the ongoing cyclical recovery. This optimism is supported by four key indicators that have shown improvement since the previous quarter.
Furthermore, the Automotive and Industrial & IoT segments are showing promising growth, with expectations of mid-single-digit and high-single-digit percentage increases in the third quarter, respectively.
