Fairchild was a huge company back during the days of its founder. When he died the company went private, eventually becoming part of National Semiconductor. NS spun off its Fairchild division where it began an aggressive acquisition strategy and has again become a huge company. I thought it would have done better during its IPO, but given the market conditions it didn't. The future? Well, my opinion is that we're gonna see FCS like a steady horse, a mudder, if you will, constantly churning determedly forward, incrementally rising along the way. Given the way other semiconductor companies are placed, I just don't see this one going down much at all and it should be mostly upward. I've been buying open market IPOs and selling for quick profit, keeping shares in some of the ones I like. Well, I liked FCS well enough to keep 25% of my holdings. Didn't make much money on the IPO but I believe I will down the road as FCS continues.
