Filtronic
Article Abstract:
Filtronic produces telecoms parts and the market has great potential for growth. The company's stock price has dropped as a result of fears of problems in the US, which have been exaggerated. Filtronic is hampered by idele machinery due to a delayed US product launch, but the delay is temporary, so the damage should not be long lasting. The company has acquired a gallium arsenide plant that is operating at full capacity, and is developing a handset radio frequency component. It is in a strong potential to benefit from the development of the market.
