7 Semiconductor Stocks Set to Gain From the Chip Shortage - 2 of 7

 
 

#2 - Texas Instruments (NASDAQ:TXN)

The automotive sector is one sector suffering from a disrupted supply chain. That is just one of the sectors serviced by Texas Instruments (NASDAQ:TXN). The company is best known as “the calculator company.” But it’s far more than that. Texas Instruments has a market cap of just over $160 billion as of this writing.

If you believe in the axiom that share price follows earnings (and you should), then you will want to pay attention to TXN stock. The company has delivered an average of 18% earnings per share (EPS) growth over the last three years. So it shouldn’t be a huge surprise that TXN stock is up over 55% in that same time period. And the stock is up so far about 8% in 2021.

And for those investors who like to buy companies that have a high amount of insider buying, Texas Instruments checks that box as well. Insiders have a stake in the company that is worth over $200 million.
