Strong Buy Recommendation for Analog Devices: Market Position, Growth Potential, and Strategic Acquisitions Drive Target Price of $287

DBS analyst Jim Hin Kwong Au has maintained their bullish stance on ADI stock, giving a Buy rating yesterday.

Jim Hin Kwong Au has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors that highlight Analog Devices’ strong market position and growth potential. The company is expected to see a significant recovery in revenue and earnings per share in the upcoming quarters, driven by robust demand in the industrial and automotive sectors, particularly with the increasing adoption of AI-driven power solutions and the growth of the Chinese electric vehicle market.
