5 main reasons we are bullish on ACLS:
1) The over all market is turning bullish and will remain bullish over the next few years when the global economy recovers from the most severe recession since WII. We see inflation pick up and US$ (and other main currencies) depreciation accelerate gradually over the following 5 years. That would create a long bull market worldwide, although their relative values to real estate and gold remain stable. Comparing to gold price today, everything is cheap! However, gold price is not rational today. It is meaningless here to make a precise calculation. We use it to forecast a market trend only.
2) Semiconductor industry is reversing a decade of bear market.
3) Specifically, the worst is over for ACLS (after years of - cashflow), for which we've witnessed the turning point in 2009.
4) ACLS has some new product lines rolling out thanks to their years of dear investment that have the potential (already seen some effects) to regain market share. It is worthy to note their investment in R&D had significant impact to their net income and cashflow. Fortunately, it is bringing in some fruitful results.
5) Technically speaking, ACLS is about to break a long term trend line, which is a very exciting and significant signal to indicate a long term growth ( beginning of a bull market) opportunity for ACLS. This trend line has been tested (confirmed) 3 times in the past and we're due to break with the hard facts stated above. We strongly suggest you to check their website:

Any special reason why ACLS will work ? Its cash flow as negative over past three years and current cash reserve is close to cash outflow of 2009.
What might be the source of upside ?
