The Semiconductor Industry have posted some impressive gains as the
demand for mobile devices is rapidly growing. Shares of Apple's
chip suppliers surged earlier this week as the company reported it
nearly doubled its earnings in the first quarter. "The whole apple
semiconductor food chain likely benefits," said RBC Capital analyst
Doug Freedman. Five Star Equities examines the outlook for

Apple on Tuesday reported their profits jumped 93 percent in the
March quarter, fueled by strong iPhone sales. iPhone shipments for
the first quarter totaled 35.1 million units beating analysts'
estimates by nearly 15 percent. Buying in China was a major factor
for the surprising sales total as the country was responsible for
20 percent of total sales, up from the 12 percent in 2011.
"They are truly just beginning to grow in Asia, and China is
possibly their most important market, where they just really
started expanding," said Michael Obuchowski, chief investment
officer at First Empire Asset Management, "For Apple right now, the
most important part of thinking about their business is the
international growth."
