Synaptics, Inc. (SYNA)

CAPS Rating:
*****

The Company is a developer and supplier of custom-designed user interface solutions that enable people to interact more easily and intuitively with mobile computing, entertainment and other electronic devices.

Rating a stock in CAPS consists of three components:

Your call - Will this stock outperform or underperform the S&P 500? Successful picks are measured in terms of whether or not you were correct and by how many percentage points.

Your time frame - A guideline for other players to see whether your thinking is short or long-term. Time frame is also used to calculate the stock rating, but is not used in the scoring of your pick.

Your pitch - Here's your chance to offer more detailed thoughts, analysis, concerns, or the rationale behind your call. The pitch is optional and may be added later.

Each time you rate a stock, CAPS updates the community intelligence for the company, which may or may not change its CAPS rating. For more information, visit the Help tab at the top of the page.

WOW what a good buy in point. I put %20 of my real investments into this guy @ 23.65. It was a buy at 30, but now it is ridiculously cheap. They surpassed 2Q earning and fell %25 on bad outlook for the next quarter. Of course they will have worse numbers next quarter, the economy is pulling back...More

Touch screens are growing in popularity (at least I love them) and I think will be a large part of allowing an aging population to interact with technology more intuitively. In particular I think that the shift towards a self-service atmosphere and away from in person customer service, for example self-checkout at grocery stores.

The California-based company specializes in developing human interface solutions for mobile computing,
communications and entertainment devices. It provides intuitive interface solutions for notebook PCs, PC peripherals,
digital music players, and mobile phones.

Synaptics is the same company that launched the TouchPad technology for notebook PCs.

Mobile computing is and will be a hot industry as demand for smaller multi-function devices either for business or
personal use increases. Look what are cellphones are capable of doing now - built-in GPS, MP3 player, Video player,
camera, etc.

That is, until there is a new No. 1 stock!
