Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Teradyne stock:

• 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Teradyne is a leading provider of automated test equipment. Over the last one year, the stock has outperformed the Zacks Electronics - Testing Equipment industry. Also, Teradyne’s first quarter results surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate on earnings and revenue. A recovery in the core semiconductor business (processors, MCUs and power management), long-term opportunities in the high-growth wireless test market, growing memory market exposure, strong product lineup, lean cost structure and strong balance sheet are positives. Given the popularity of its products, the Universal Robots acquisition and the continuous design win momentum; the company is optimistic long-term prospects. However, weakness in the wireless test market could be a concern in the near term." (7/17/2017)
• 2. Needham & Company LLC analysts commented, "2016 was a break-out year for TER as it appears investors have finally started to: 1) give management credit for gaining share in ATE; 2) appreciate the earnings growth over the last 3 years; and 3) assign a value to TER's growing industrial robot business. We believe the upcoming 4Q16 report needs to confirm the continued growth momentum in order for the stock to continue to march higher. With the improved semi demand environment, TER's business momentum and its optimized operational/financial structure, we believe the company will not disappoint." (1/24/2017)
