Semiconductor capex rising. Analysts name top stock picks. With chipmakers increasing their capital expenditures, semiconductor equipment stocks have been among the market's best performers. Wall Street analysts this week called out their top picks among chip gear stocks. Evercore ISI analyst Mark Lipacis on Thursday raised his forecasts for wafer fabrication equipment (WFE) spending for this year and next. He now predicts WFE spending in 2026 of $140 billion, up from $121 billion previously. He increased his WFE spending estimate for 2027 to $180 billion from $150 billion. Spending on chip gear for advanced memory and leading-edge processors is driving the higher forecasts, Lipacis said in a client note. Technical specifications for agentic artificial intelligence applications are fueling the need for higher-capacity chips, he said. Among chip gear stocks, Lipacis named Applied Materials (AMAT), ASML (ASML) and Lam Research (LRCX) as his top picks. He likes Applied Materials and ASML for their high exposure to DRAM memory chip production and Lam for its exposure to Nand memory chip production. IBD's semiconductor equipment group currently ranks fifth out of 197 industry groups, based on stock performance over the past six months. Elsewhere on Wall Street, BofA Securities analyst Vivek Arya highlighted his own "top picks" among chip gear stocks heading into first-quarter earnings season. Chip gear stocks on Tech Leaders list. In a client note Tuesday, Arya said he favors Applied Materials and Lam for their exposure to the memory chip cycle, but also likes Advanced Energy Industries (AEIS) and MKS (MKSI). Arya raised his WFE spending forecasts to $140 billion for 2026 and $171 billion for 2027. Tight capacity for production of AI processors and memory chips as well as new fab projects like Elon Musk's Terafab are driving higher capex, Arya said. Meanwhile, UBS on Monday named Entegris (ENTG) as its top pick among chip gear stocks. "Entegris benefits from an improving industry backdrop as AI-related capacity finally begins to inflect total semi fab wafer starts and capex," UBS analyst Timothy Arcuri said in a client note. Advanced Energy, Applied Materials, ASML, Lam Research and MKS are on the IBD Tech Leaders list.

Entegris shares have climbed 22.6% to $118.71 since October 2025, outpacing the S&P 500's 2.8% decline. However, analysts cite three reasons to avoid the semiconductor equipment maker. The company's revenue has declined at an annualised rate of 4.8% over the past two years, reversing its five-year growth trend. Wall Street forecasts only 7.2% revenue growth over the next 12 months, below sector averages. Additionally, Entegris's free cash flow margin of 11.1% over the past two years is weak compared to peers, limiting capital return opportunities. Trading at 34.4× forward price-to-earnings, analysts suggest the stock's recent outperformance has priced in positive expectations, making alternative investments more attractive.
Entegris, a semiconductor materials supplier, is expanding "local-for-local" manufacturing in Taiwan and Colorado to reduce China exposure and support regional supply chains for chipmakers. The company reported full-year 2025 sales of $3.2 billion and guided first-quarter 2026 revenue between $785 million and $825 million. The regionalisation strategy aims to mitigate trade and tariff risks, though execution challenges remain around new facilities. Some analysts project revenue reaching $3.9 billion by 2028, whilst more cautious forecasts anticipate $4.0 billion, reflecting concerns about potential permanent loss of Chinese market access. Entegris' total capital raised stands at $295 million. The company currently offers its technology through a free API whilst exploring future commercialisation in safety-critical sectors including automotive and aerospace.
Entegris, a semiconductor materials company, has received a bullish investment thesis highlighting its strategic position in the industry recovery. The company supplies critical materials including precursors, slurries and filtration solutions essential for advanced chip fabrication. Despite trading at 45x earnings, analysts argue the valuation is justified when normalised for cyclical semiconductor volumes. Management has revised guidance upward, reflecting confidence in sustained recovery. The company is expanding manufacturing in Taiwan and Colorado to mitigate China-related geopolitical risks. As volumes normalise, gross margins are expected to expand towards 47%, enhancing profitability and cash flow generation. However, hedge fund interest has declined, with 38 funds holding positions at the end of Q3 2024, down from 54 the previous quarter. The stock traded at $137.34 as of 25th February.
Entegris hit a 52-week high on Tuesday, surging 9.03% to $133.44 after issuing an upbeat first-quarter outlook, despite reporting disappointing fourth-quarter results. The materials solutions company projects Q1 net income growth of 3.3% to 22%, reaching $65 million to $77 million, up from $62.9 million in the prior year period. Net sales are forecast at $785 million to $825 million, representing growth of 1.5% to 6.7% year-on-year. For 2024, Entegris reported net income declining 19.5% to $235.6 million, whilst net sales dipped 1.2% to $3.2 billion. Fourth-quarter net income fell 51.7% to $49.4 million, with sales decreasing 3% to $823.9 million. The positive Q1 guidance drove investor enthusiasm, pushing shares to an intraday peak of $137.05.
