7 Mid-Cap Stocks That Can be the Perfect Fit at Any Time - 1 of 7

#1 - Ambarella (NASDAQ:AMBA)

The demand for chips in areas such as data centers, smartphones, and electric vehicles is likely to keep demand at above-average levels for several years. However, the semiconductor sector is notoriously cyclical. That’s what makes Ambarella (NASDAQ:AMBA) an interesting choice. The company designs components that chip makers need.

The company specifically focuses on computer vision (CV) semiconductors which in the company’s words “make cameras smarter.” The company’s chips are used in applications such as security cameras and autonomous vehicles. Demand in both categories is expected to grow significantly in the next 10-20 years.

Unlike some other companies we have on this list, Ambarella is definitely a growth play. The company looks a bit overvalued at the moment. And the risk for investors is if the economy slows to the point where the current chip shortage becomes a chip surplus.

But for now, analysts project strong revenue and earnings growth over the next five years. And analysts still have a consensus price target that suggests a 52% upside from current levels.
