An overreaction?. Share weakness seems an overreactionYesterday’s steep 5.5% drop in IP shares seems an overreaction to IP’s earnings report/outlook. Netting out puts & takes we view 2Q earnings quality as solid. We expect furthermomentum ahead as rising prices flow to the bottom line. IP’s markets remain tight with USbleached board and containerboard running >95% of capacity. While demand growth could/should slow as comps toughen and US macro growth moderates, volumes are still improving.. Raising estimatesWe are raising our 3Q EPS estimate to $0.82 from $0.75. This incorporates $50 mm expectedincome from land sale announced last week, offset by $95mm higher costs, mainly due tocompensation accruals. The key drivers of the expected 50% q/q pickup are higher pricing andlower maintenance expense. We have assumed relatively modest input cost relief. Our 2010e isnow $1.95 up from $1.80.. Showing disciplineEnding 2Q cash balance rose $122mm q/q to $1.87bn, fairly flat with year end. Debt is downabout $100mm from year end. IP just made a $500mm voluntary pension contribution. Theyreceived a further $34mm dividend from Ilim. Ilim’s investments in new pulp/paper capacity willbe self-funded. IP is investing $55mm cash in new paperboard capacity in China.. ValuationWe expect good earnings and disciplined use of cash as results improve. Our target remains$43-this assumes shares trade at 7x blend 2011e/normalized EV/EBITDA.

[email protected] Cautious on New Sales. Forecast 12.0m July SAAR vs. 11.2m last year

Based on feedback from 48 survey respondents, we expect July SAAR of 12.0m, up 7% Y/Y.Our forecast falls right within the range of major industry estimates: we are higher than Ward’s(11.6m), but slightly below JD Power (12.2m).. Majority of conquesting from GM & Toyota; Ford remains well-positionedSurveyed dealers reported that 88% of conquested sales are coming from GM, Chrysler, andsurprisingly, Toyota. Relative to the last time we asked (October ’09), dealers that believe theyhave conquested sales from Toyota have increased from 11% to 33%, illustrating the negativerecall impact. Importantly, reports of Ford conquesting are much lower, at a stabilized 7% - 9%in the last year.. Dealers surprisingly bullish on P&S and bearish on full-year SAARSurprisingly, the majority of dealers expect both July and full-year P&S sales to be higher Y/Y.This is more bullish than we would expect, given our view that fewer cars sold in 2009 shouldlead to fewer servicing opportunities this year. Further, most dealers pointed to an annual SAARrange of 10.6m – 11.0m, well below our 11.7m estimate for 2010.. Despite dealer perspective, we remain bullish on a 2010 sales recoveryWhile we are slightly cautious of the bearish survey results, we continue to believe sales willrecover in 2010, especially given the selling rate is still below scrappage (12.3m). We maintainour Buys on Ford and SAH, and our Sell on AN.

Despite Order Decline, We’re Optimistic. 2Q EPS In Line with ExpectationsRyland reported 2Q EPS of ($0.08), ex the loss related to debt repurchases & based on anormal tax rate, ahead of our ($0.09) forecast. HB operations outperformed our expectations, assales +37% YOY (vs. our +15% est.) & EBIT margins ex charges were 5.4% (~300bps ahead ofour est.). Although these factors added ~$0.15 to EPS, they were largely offset by greaterlosses in financial services, reducing EPS by ~$0.07. Finally, higher than expected impairmentreduced EPS by ~$0.05.. Lower Orders Reflect More Cautious ApproachUnit orders were -44% YOY, below our -5% forecast, reflecting the impact of Ryland’s moreconservative build to order operating strategy. Although we believe this will drive LT benefits, ithas negatively impacted NT results as we believe the co. lost sales to competitors with morestanding spec to satisfy demand generated by the tax credit expiration. We continue to believethis conservative approach will prove prudent over time as conditions stabilize.. Revising Estimates; Maintain PT and Buy RatingReflecting the impact from weaker order growth, we are reducing our ‘10E EPS to ($0.45) from($0.38); our ‘11E EPS goes to $0.40 from $0.45. Forward years are unchanged. Further, thesechanges are not sufficient to impact our $22 PT. We maintain our Buy rating, as we believe therisk/reward trade off remains attractive.. Valuation: PT $22 is 1.2x our Trough Book Value ForecastOur $22 PT is 1.2x our trough BV est., ahead of the group avg. Mgmt will host a call today at12pm, Dial: (877) 644-1284.

Upgrading to Neutral on Valuation. Recent Pull-Back Leaves MTH Fairly ValuedSince the beginning of May, MTH has declined 33% vs the -29% group avg. In turn, the stocknow trades at 0.9x tang BV. Although this pullback has made us more constructive, we expectnear-term catalysts for housing will be negative, leaving us on the sidelines. That said, webelieve Meritage’s current valuation fairly reflects fundamentals. In turn, we are upgrading ourrating to Neutral from Sell.. More Defensive Operating Strategy Limits DownsideThrough the downturn, we expected Meritage’s more defensive strategy would outperformpeers. We expect this to hold true again, as conditions adjust following the expiration of the taxcredit, given the company’s: 1) land light model, which focuses on optioning lots; 2) increasingsales in newer communities, which carry margins 500-600bps higher than legacyneighborhoods; and 3) sufficient liquidity, with no debt due until 2015. In our opinion, this shouldlimit further downside.. Despite Recent Weakness, We Continue to Expect a Gradual RecoveryWe continue to believe fundamentals in housing are approaching a trough. That said, underlyingconditions have weakened recently, reflecting the pull forward in demand experienced from thetax credit and declining consumer confidence. Further, we anticipate continued uncertainty overthe near term. This should ease, however, toward the end of the year as signs ofstabilization—and a gradual recovery—become evident.. Valuation: $17 PT Based on 0.9x our Trough BV EstimateOur $17 PT is 0.9x our trough book value estimate, slightly below the average.

Shrimp and Sales. Higher Shrimp Prices Unlikely to Impact DardenThere still seems to be some concern that higher shrimp prices—currently up 30% YOY—couldbe a significant negative for Darden. Hypothetically, this increase (with shrimp representing10%+ of food costs) could create a hit to margins ex-price increases. However, we believehigher shrimp prices will prove temporary and that prices will ease well before contracted supplyruns out at the end of FY11.. What is Going on with the Shrimp Market?2010 has been an unusual year for shrimp producers. A combination of disease in Indonesiaand Mexico, hot and dry weather during the seeding season in Asia, and the gulf oil spill, ledbuyers to panic—exacerbating a market that was already coping with short supply. However,higher prices and a strong dollar are attracting more production, and Thailand has provenparticularly resilient at filling supply gaps. Based on this and a ~3 month growth period forshrimp, we believe the fundamental pressure on shrimp prices should ease by the end of CY10.. Sales Momentum Improving Lately,We believe it is likely that F1Q sales started out below Darden’s target of 2-3% same storesales growth, but have subsequently risen to at or above that level. With almost half the quarterstill remaining, it is not clear to us yet whether the company will achieve this targeted level.However, if recent improved industry trends continue, the result would likely be EPS and stockupside.. Valuation: $54 Price Target; Buy RatingOur $54 price target is based on UBS VCAM and equals 15x our CY11 EPS estimate.

Validation Of Retail/PBM Business Model?. CVS 2Q OK despite retail sales softness, guidance takes minimal hitCVS reported an inline quarter of 68c (ex items) in spite of a challenging environment, butrevised guidance downward - partially (~50% of revision) due to lower estimated retail sales for2010, the remainder in legal costs and dilution of the Aetna deal. On the whole, we view the tworecent events as validation of the combined CVS/Caremark business model and we maintainour Buy rating.. PBM back on trackExcluding the Aetna deal, the company has so far won $1.2B in gross new business and $350Mof net new business for 2011. Including the Aetna deal the company has won $8.6B in net newbusiness, a shot in the arm for a business that stumbled a year ago. Maintenance Choicecontinues to gain acceptance, with 525 clients now signed, covering 6.3M lives. Moreover, therapid settlement of the WAG/CVS dispute caused minimal impact to the PBM business, quietingfears.. New EPS guidance indicates minimal impact of operations, model changesCVS 2010 EPS guides to a range of $2.68 to $2.73 from a range of $2.77 to $2.84, whichincludes an assumption of 4c in legal accrual, 4c impact of softer retail sales and 1c-2c in theinitial dilution of the Aetna deal. Our model EPS changes are as follows; FY2010 EPS to $2.73from $2.84, w/ no repurchases, FY2011 to $3.16 from $3.22, w/ completion of the current $2Brepurchase authorization. Earlier repurchase activity could provide upside to current estimates.. Valuation: Reiterate Buy rating and $46 price targetOur $46 price target is comprised of about a 14x P/E assumption on our 2011 $3.16 EPSestimate.

Capital Moves Don’t Erase EPS Headwinds. Maintain Sell ratingWe maintain our Sell rating, following ZION’s entry into swaps that transfer credit risk from$1.2bn in TRUPs CDOs to its counterparty. This move could decrease the size of any TARP-rel.capital raise. But, our rating is predicated upon shares not reflecting a slow EPS recovery andlower “normal” returns, as our ests. do not include dilution. No mat’l change to ’10E but we lower’11E to ($0.30) from ($0.25) and ’12E to $0.85 from $1.00. The swap spread offsets our cum.est. losses for the TRUPs book, and we assume TARP will be repaid in ’11 not ’12.. Capital maneuvers may not stave off dilutionThe swaps reduce the risk weight for these secs. to 20% from 455%, accretive to 2Q tier 1 by112bp. Still, this does not take potential dilution of 7% to ‘12E (if ZION had to raise 50% ofTARP) from a common issuance off the table as it is unclear that regulators will allow TARPredemption without an accompanying issuance. Moreover, the global focus on capital standardreform implies that absolute levels, composition of tier 1 capital, and risk weighting definitionsremain moving targets.. Slow earnings recovery, challenged “normal” returns underpins cautionWe believe that: 1) slower credit heal due to a protracted recovery in CRE values and debt svc;and 2) muted top-line power, given a difficult interest rate backdrop, NIM “noise” from sub-debtconversions, and slow recovery towards net loan growth will drive material EPSdisappointments to consensus estimates.. Valuation: Still not signaling valueZION trades at 1.2x TBV and 28x our 2012E. Our 3-prong method drives our PT.

Even PBM Deal Viewed as Glass Half-empty. Second half guidance appears to bake in very conservative assumptionsPost ~$0.30 Q2 beat, AET increases FY’10 EPS outlook to $3.05-$3.15 (+$0.36 vs. prior exPBM impact), including only $1.04-$1.14 of earnings power in second half of year (vs. $1.81 in1H ex-PYD), which appears to embed very conservative assumptions. Notably, despite costtrend outlook coming down by 100bps, implied 2H’10 comm’l MLR guidance remainsunchanged at ~84.5% as company takes cautious view around sustainability of recent declinesin utilization.

Full-Year EPS

Everything On Track; Golden Opportunity. 2010 Earnings Remain On Track for All PBMsExpress Scripts reported 2Q10 EPS of $0.60 Wed night that exceed the Street consensus by apenny, and the company raised full-year guidance. This comes on the heels of both Medco’s2Q10 EPS beat and full-year guidance raise, and CVS Caremark’s in line 2Q10 results andunchanged full-year PBM guidance. Thus, PBM industry earnings are fully on track in 2010, andwe believe continued stock weakness relates more to 2011 from both a pricing and generic Rxperspective.. PBM Industry Consultant Says No Pricing Issues in 2011 Selling SeasonBased on discussions with our PBM industry consultant, we still believe that pricing in theongoing 2011 selling season is not any more aggressive than normal industry levels, and thusbelieve concerns on this are overblown. This follows both CVS and MHS stating on their 2Qcalls that they are not seeing more aggressive pricing for ‘11, and we expect to hear the samefrom ESRX Thurs morning as well.. 33% EPS Growth in 2Q10; 40% Expected in 2010; 26% Expected in 2011ESRX upped 2010 guidance to $2.45-2.50. Our $2.50 est. (+40%) is unchanged.. Valuation: Adding ESRX to UBS Alpha Preferences ListWe continue to believe that ESRX is the PBM least dependent on the generic drug pipeline togrow EPS in 2011 due to the expected Next Rx synergies, which should contribute $0.65-$0.70of incremental EPS over the next 18 months ($600 mil incremental EBITDA). We believeinvestors will ultimately share our view that ‘11 pricing is not an issue, and thus we add ESRX tothe UBS ‘Alpha Preferences’ list. Our $63 price target is based on a P/E of 20x our $3.15 EPSestimate for ‘11.

Update on PBM Industry Re: CVS/AET Deal. CVS/Aetna PBM Deal comparison to ESRX/WLP PBM DealThe CVS Caremark / Aetna deal announced today is somewhat different than the ExpressScripts / WellPoint (NextRx) deal announced last year. While ESRX paid over $4 bil for theability to recognize the full NextRx PBM annual profits for the next 10 years, CVS Caremark isactually paying $0 upfront, and instead will recognize only a portion of the profits from the AetnaPBM operations over 12 years. Aetna will retain mfr rebates and potentially other economics aswell.. Initial Aetna EBITDA/claim ~$0.50 for CVS in Year 1 but ramps to ~$2.00Table 1 on the next page shows an accretion/dilution table to back into the approximateEBITDA/claim for the AET book of business for CVS starting 1/1/2011. Given that Aetna willkeep some economics, we estimate that this new business will have approximately ~$0.50 inEBITDA/claim in 2011 for CVS, but will ramp to approximately $2.00 in EBITDA/claim through2014.. Implications for ESRX and MHS from this CVS/AET TransactionIn our view, there is no expected impact on either ESRX or MHS as a result of this transaction.Both companies could benefit from some PBM customer attrition, but it is unlikely to be material.Some investors may have thought that MHS would be more likely to strike a deal with Aetnathan CVS, but this was not part of our investment thesis on MHS and thus does not change ourview. By contrast, we think this additional ‘structure’ of an independent/captive PBM deal couldactually increase the probability of a MHS/UNH deal. Finally, the 2010 guidance revisions fromCVS today had nothing to do with its PBM operations, and thus there is no negative read-through for ESRX when they report after the close today, in our view.

Strong Q2 results; Raising Estimates. Q2 Results above seasonality; Q3 at low-end of seasonality for IT systemsARW reported Q2 Revs/EPS of $4.6b/$1.01 vs. UBSe $4.4b/$0.79 and cons at $4.4b/$0.81(Revs up 9% q/q; 36% y/y), with both Components (GC) and IT systems (GECS) aboveseasonality. Proprietary servers were strong in Q2 (+21% q/q), and we foresee strength in 2Hdue to product ramp at a big supplier. For Q3, the company guided GECS to low end ofseasonality and GC above seasonality.. Btb again above 1.1, flat vs. Q210; lead times stretched out furtherBookings increased continually in the qtr and GC Btb was 1.1+ across geographies, flat q/q.Average lead times stretched further to 11-19 wks from last Qtr’s 10-18 wks (normal ~ 8-10 wks)with increases in discretes, analog and electromechanical, while passives came in by 1.5weeks. For Q3, the company expects lead times to be stable to up for analog, EM, passives anddiscretes, albeit at elevated levels.. Inventory up on tight supply, healthy demand, and strategic investmentsWe believe the 22% q/q inventory build in absolute terms (DOI + 2 days q/q to 37) was primarilydue to fulfilment of orders of longer lead time components towards the end of the Qtr and due tosome strategic investments for Q3. We believe inventory from acquisitions did not have anymaterial impact. This bears watching.. Valuation: Maintain Buy; Price target goes to $31We are raising our ests and our new CY10/CY11 Rev/EPS ests go to $18.3b/$3.85 and$17.4b/$3.61, from $17.1b/$3.08 and $16b/$2.74, respectively. We raise our PT to $31 (from$30) based on VCAM: WACC 10%; LT rev growth 6%; LT EBIT margin 3.8%. Our PT moves upon higher near-term estimates.

F3Q shows strength of fundamentals. P&L and key metrics look solid for F3QV’s print looks in-line to slightly better than expected. Global payment volume growth of +14%(const currency) edged up slightly last quarter and was in-line with UBSe – while US paymentvolume of 13.7% seems to imply a modest slowdown in June vs. Apr/May, Asia/Pac, LatAm,and CEMEA performed better than UBSe. Net revs of $2.03B beat UBSe/Street by 3%(cross-border had biggest beat vs. UBSe), rebates at 16.2% of net revs were 130 bps betterthan UBSe, and EPS of $0.97 beat our model/Street by $0.03/$0.04 (helped by lower tax rate).. F10/F11 guidance reiterated, as anticipatedV reiterated F10 guidance (high end of 11-15% net rev growth, high end of 16-17% rebates/incentives, mid-high 50% op margin, >20% EPS growth) and its F11 outlook for >20% EPSgrowth. We believe this was expected, and would anticipate more detailed F11 guidance(including top-line) next quarter.. Key questions for today’s 5pm ET call (888-790-4410; Pwd: 072810)1) July MTD volume and txn growth trends (y/y comps maybe a little tougher, as cited by AXP),2) any additional commentary on regulatory impacts (probably not much given sensitive natureof the subject and the fact that the Fed has 9 months to act, 3) will higher professional/consulting expense in F3Q persist, 4) updates on financial impact of CYBS acquisition, 5) coloron key growth initiatives (prepaid, e-commerce, emerging markets, commercial). Valuation: Maintain Buy; $107 PT (based on 19x C11E EPS/DCF)We will revisit our model after today’s call.

Full-Year EPS

A view of stand-alone EPS and valuation. MDR and BWC are trading when-issuedWith MDR and BWC now trading on a when-issued (W/I) basis, we publish this report toaddress some of the frequently asked questions we have received, to provide a view of stand-alone EPS and to preview Q2 (light bookings).. McDermott (MDR): Oil prices/capex and execution key driversKey growth drivers are oil prices and upstream capex. While the global macro outlook reflectsmodest growth, oil prices remain supportive of upstream capex, rig counts are rising, and capexforecasts indicate growth. We present a low, medium and high EPS scenario analysis, whichsuggests stand alone ’11 EPS could range from $0.98-1.30. Key prospects include Barzan,Liwan, GOM. Peers trade at 13x ‘11 EPS on avg. The W/I trades at 11x, a slight discount to themid-case scenario.. B&W (BWC): Defense spending, power demand, energy policy key driversWe assume solid growth from Navy submarine pgm, nuclear fuels improvement, and stableDOE/NNSA profits. We assume pent up demand for utility maint is released, and air qualityspending ramps up over the next 12-18 mos. We assume US/European new boilers struggle,but emerging markets could add modestly. Stand alone EPS could be in a range of $1.44-1.90.Peer co’s trade at 13x ‘11 EPS. The W/I trades at 14x, a premium to the mid-case scenario.. Valuation: Our $30/share target reflects sum of parts and P/E analysisThe P/E based analysis uses 14-15x on 2011e EPS (hist P/E 5-30x).

2Q10 Review: Margins, Guidance Fall Short. 2Q10 Revs/EPS $838m/$0.55 (incl $0.05 benefit from lower taxes)CTV 2Q10 Revs/EPS of $838m/$0.55 compared to UBS-e of $828m/$0.52 and cons at$833m/$0.54. GM of 29.5% came in below our est of 30.3%, with OM of 12% also shy of our12.5% est. The $0.55 reported EPS figure included a $0.05 benefit from a lower tax-rate.Margins came in below expectations in all segments with the exception of WNS, affected bylower pricing, higher costs and mix. We believe WNS margins benefited from strength in indoorwireless business.. Enterprise / NA Wireless trends good; Intl wireless soft spotAs we recently wrote in our CTV preview note, we expected good revenue trends for Enterpriseand NA wireless partially offset by supply chain constraints, lacklustre intl wireless sales, andsome seasonality. We believe these factors affected 2Q results and are affecting 3Q guidance.We believe CTV sales in the Indian wireless market were weaker than expected in 2Q10,~$25m lower in 2Q10 compared to last year’s qtrly levels. Activity in China remained weak too.Both markets hold the potential of an uptick in sales in 2H10.. Adjust estimates; look for addl clarity on demand drivers and timingOur CY10/CY11 Revs/EPS ests go to $3.2b/$1.71, $3.4b/$2.16 from $3.2b/$1.89 and$3.4b/$2.39, resp. Should perf. targets miss, lower bonus accruals could lower SG&A in 2H10,with modest addl savings in 2011 from Omaha plant closure.. Valuation: Maintain Neutral; lower price target to $28PT based on VCAM: WACC 10% (was 9.5%); LT rev growth 3.9% (was 4%); and LT EBITmargin 11.5-12% (was 12%). The implied CY11 PE is 13x.

New Kindles should accelerate H/W and S/W sales. Amazon launches two new versions of the KindleAmazon launched the third generation of its 3G Kindle (originally launched in 07), including asleeker form factor, lighter weight, up to one month of battery life, and 2x the storage space.Amazon had previously noted the growth rate of Kindle device unit sales had tripled since itreduced the price from $259 to $189 in June. We expect today’s announcement to drive furtheracceleration of Kindle hardware and software units. Please see page 3 for a detailed eReadercomparison.. Wi-Fi only Kindle a good idea for reaching the casual readerThe new Kindle Wi-Fi at $139 competes directly with B&N’s Nook which is priced at $149. Webelieve the lower price point should drive further adoption among casual readers or infrequenttravellers that don’t require a 3G connection. In addition, integration with FaceBook and Twitterincreases the stickiness of the device(s).. Kindle can now compete as a stand-alone eReaderWith some of the lowest prices, best features, and a selection of over 630k titles, we believeKindle is now well-positioned to take share from other eReaders. In addition, we believecompetition from higher price point multi-use tablets is somewhat mitigated as the Kindlecompetes as a stand-alone eReader.. ValuationOur $165 PT is based on our DCF (12% WACC; 4% LTGR).

Can the growth train speed up more?. A solid beat and raise quarter should be enough to sustain sharesSentiment and expectations are relatively high heading into CTSH's 2Q results on 8/3,especially following stronger than expected volume growth reported by offshore comps. In ourview, if CTSH can beat 2Q rev guidance by ~2% (see Charts 1 & 2) and raise '10 revenuegrowth guidance by ~3% (a realistic scenario), that should sustain shares. We expectmanagement to continue sounding a vigilant tone regarding Europe and discretionary spending(already reflected in guidance).. Next year's top-line growth is key to the stockIn our view, the Street does not see much suspense associated with '10 results for CTSH. Sothe key to the stock over the next 6-12 months is CTSH's 2011 revenue growth - sell-sideconsensus is currently 21%, which would reflect deceleration vs. '10. However, if CTSH canultimately achieve 25%+ revenue growth next year, then we believe the stock still has ampleheadroom. We are also mindful that EPS growth will slow next year because of likely India taxholiday expiration.. Key 2Q topics: pricing, wage inflation, Europe (only 7-8% revs from euro)We expect CTSH to reiterate its expectation for a slight pricing tailwind in 2H (price actionsalready taken). We do not believe the recent resurgence of wage inflation in India will impedeCTSH's ability to achieve its traditional 19-20% operating margin range (offsets are pricing,utilization, onshore/offshore mix).. Valuation: Maintain Buy and $57 PT (based on 23x C11E EPS/DCF)CTSH remains the best growth story in IT Services, but upside to our price target has becomemore limited.

The first TV cover glass win will add several hundred million in incremental 2011 revssupporting our $600m est for Gorilla glass in 2011.

We see upside to 2011 volume forecast if TVreplacement cycles shrink in the US and Europe as we have seen in Japan.

Big beneficiary of capacity expansions. Solid Jun-10 results; Guides shipments up q/q for both Sep-10 and Dec-10Lam’s Jun-10 sales and EPS of $695M and $1.17 exceeded its guidance of $650M and $0.94with EPS upside due to $0.14 from higher than expected sales/ops and $0.09 from a lower taxrate of 15% (versus 20% in Mar-10). Lam’s Jun-10 shipments of $694M were just below its$700M guidance due to 4 customer push outs. Lam guided Sep-10 shipments to $810M (up17% q/q) and expects Dec-10 shipments to be up q/q as it likely ships tools to all of itscustomers.. Well positioned to benefit from foundry and logic customers in 2H10While Lam estimates 2H10 could see capacity expansion by memory customers of 300k wafersper month, Lam expects stronger shipments growth from its foundry customers (likely TSMC)and logic customers (likely Samsung’s fab in Austin) where Lam enjoys dominant share. Lamalso reported that its Sep-10 gross margin is flattish q/q at 46.5% despite the 10% q/q salesgrowth but its Dec-10 quarter should see greater improvement and track back above its 47%+long term model.. Raising estimates given better outlook for steady shipments thru 1H11Lam guided Sep-10 sales and EPS to $790M and $1.35 which was much higher than with thepre-call consensus of $670M and $0.98. We adjusted our FY11 and FY12 EPS estimates to$5.35 and $4.20 compared to $3.75 and $4.60 previously.. Maintain Buy rating: Increasing price target to $56 from $51Our new 12-month price target is based on applying a 12x P/E multiple to our CY11 EPS of$4.65 (up from 4.25 previously). We note that Lam has $7.54/share in net cash and estimate itcan generate another $5/share in free cash flow FY11.

Positioning for a more positive tone. Within a trading range, a more constructive backdropIncoming news flow has turned more positive over the last several weeks. Earnings have beenrobust, European stress tests (while not as tough as hoped) did not deliver negative surprises,European macro data have surprised to the upside, and China appears to be taking its foot offthe brakes. In addition, risk appetite has begun to recover, but remains well below levels seenearlier this year.. Allocation changes and sector preferencesGiven the importance of swings in risk appetite and sentiment as markets remain in ranges,tactical allocation becomes more important. To reflect our view that equities have more room torun given fundamentals and valuations, we make several allocation changes. In sectors, weupgrade Materials to Overweight and downgrade Healthcare to Neutral. We continue to arguefor balanced cyclical vs. defensive positioning. But, our analysis shows that sector returndifferences tend to be significant even as cyclicals and defensives move in line with each other.. Regional preferencesGiven strong growth and attractive valuations, GEM remains our preferred Overweight. Weincrease ‘Rest of World’ to Overweight. Additionally, we lift Europe/UK to Neutral. Wedowngrade the US to Neutral and Japan to Underweight (both from Overweight).. Global Top 40 stock list changesWe are adding EMC, Teck Resources, EDF, Svenska Cellulosa, and Banco do Brasil.

Mixed June durables & mortg apps up more. Durables -1.0%; ex trans -0.6% but core capital goods orders +0.6%Durable goods orders fell 1.0% in June (consensus and UBSe +1.0%), and May was reviseddown slightly: to -0.8% from an earlier reported 0.6% decline. But most of the decline stemmedfrom a 25.6% drop in (volatile) civilian aircraft orders. Orders ex transport slipped 0.6%(consensus 0.4%, UBSe: 0.0%), only partly offsetting the 1.2% gain in May (was 1.6%). Otherparts of the report were firmer: Orders excluding aircraft and defense edged up 0.3% in Juneafter a 1.0% gain in May (was +1.2%). Similarly, orders for the key nondefense capital goods exaircraft series rose 0.6%m/m (UBSe: 0.0%) after an upward-revised 4.6% gain in May (was3.9%). As a result, core capital goods orders rose at a 25.1% annual rate in Q2 after a 15%pace in Q1. The rapid pace of Q2 orders will provide some support to equipment investmentspending in Q3.. Mortgage applications recovering?The weekly mortgage applications purchase index rose 2.0%w/w in the week of July 23 after a3.4% w/w rise the prior week—the first back-to-back increase in the index since prior to theexpiration of the homebuyer tax credits at the end of April. Within the details of the report,purchase applications using conventional loans rose 3.8%w/w (after +0.3% in the prior week),while applications using government-backed loans edged down 0.3%w/w (after +8.0%w/w). Ofcourse additional improvement in the weekly purchase index will be necessary, but the latestback-to-back gains lend support to the idea that the plunge in home sales in the wake of theexpiration of the tax credits may be over. More generally, we continue to expect a strengtheninglabor market and low mortgage rates will provide support to sales later this year.
