Morgan Stanley Turns Cautious on Chip Makers; Cuts Intel

Semiconductor stocks like Intel (INTC) and Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) took a hit on Tuesday after Morgan Stanley downgraded the sector amid worries about rising inventories. Morgan lowered its outlook on the sector to “cautious” from “attractive,” saying “the pace in the recovery in expectations for the group has been unprecedented. Shares of tech bellwether and Dow component Intel sank nearly 3% as Morgan downgraded the company to “equal weight” from “overweight." The firm also downgraded Altera (ALTR), Micron Technology (MU) and Xilinx (XLNX) to “equal weight” and cut Nvidia (NVDA) and ArvinMeritor (ARM) from “equal weight” to “underweight." "We lower ratings on PC names to reflect our increased concern that there was a third-quarter ship ahead, and our overweight stocks include defensive names and product cycle stories. With our industry view shifting to cautious from attractive, we shift from buyers on dips, to sellers on rallies," Morgan analysts Mark Lipacis and Sanjay Devgan wrote in a note.  The negative analyst note helped push the Nasdaq Composite down 0.5% in recent trading, outpacing the losses for the broader markets. Morgan’s call comes a day after the Semiconductor Industry Association predicted global sales for 2009 ...

Intel, chipmakers slip on Morgan Stanley downgrade

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) -- Some semiconductor stocks finished lower Tuesday after a Morgan Stanley analyst downgraded the sector and individual stocks including Intel Corp. on a prediction that a boom in their share prices is in its "final innings." The Philadelphia Semiconductor Sector index fell 3.89, or 1.3 percent, to close at 293.48.Morgan Stanley analyst Mark Lipacis downgraded the sector from "Attractive" to "Cautious," saying the semiconductor index is up nearly 75 percent from its bottom but has started to underperform."We expect continued underperformance and are sellers on rallies," he wrote.Lipacis knocked down ratings of stocks including microprocessor maker Intel, whose shares fell 51 cents, or 2.7 percent, to finish at $18.50; graphics chip maker Nvidia Corp., whose shares fell 6 cents to $12.01; and memory chip maker Micron Technology Inc., whose stock rose 7 cents to close at $6.65.Lipacis downgraded Intel, the world's No. 1 maker of microprocessors for personal computers and servers, because after two "blowout" quarters its earnings estimates have undergone "massive upward revisions," which has lifted the stock price. Lipacis wrote, however, that Wall Street may be underestimating Intel's potential to boost its gross profit margins.Nvidia shares were downgraded on fears that cheaper products from Intel will erode Nvidia's chipset market share. Nvidia is the top maker of standalone graphics chips.Lipacis noted that Micron's stock has declined since its 52-week high of $9.13 on Oct. 12 because of profit-taking and anticipation of a seasonal decline in memory chip prices. He thinks it will likely stay down in the near term because of concerns that PC makers have built up big stockpiles of chips and won't need to buy as many new ones.Wedbush Securities analyst Betsy Van Hees also downgraded Micr...
