Takeaway: The rising earnings estimate revisions certainly make Super Micro Computer stock intriguing ahead of its fiscal Q2 report and the company looks poised to beat bottom-line expectations for an 11th consecutive quarter.
More impressive, SMCI stock is up +87% over the last year to crush the broader indexes but still trades 21% below its 52-week high at around $75 a share at the moment. Plus, SMCI is trading at just 8.2X forward earnings which is 71% below its decade high of 29.1X and a 47% discount to the median of 15.7X.
Bottom Line
Going into their earnings reports next week, both Allegro MicroSystems and Super Micro Computer stock look poised to continue giving investors the expansive growth they look for out of the technology sector.
There could indeed be more upside in these tech stocks if they are able to reach or beat expectations while offering positive guidance in their outlooks.
