What are Wall Street analysts saying about Avnet stock?
Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Avnet stock:
- 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Avnet reported healthy first-quarter results driven by strong performance of Electronics Components and Premier Farnell segments. Notably, supplier lines continue to increase in both the segments. Avnet intends to use its resources to make investments in embedded solutions, IoT and critical digital platforms as well as expand its footprint in newer markets. Strength in its e-commerce revenues makes management optimistic about its aim to hit $1 billion of e-commerce revenue in fiscal 2019. Shares outperformed the industry on a year-to-date basis. However, a significant portion of Avnet’s revenues comes from the sale of semiconductors, which is a cyclical industry, characterized by changes in technology and manufacturing capacity. Moreover, unfavorable currency fluctuations and an uncertain macroeconomic environment remain concerns." (10/29/2018)
