Someone on the Cree thread found the correct URL for the report, which I just printed out:

stephens.com

"In our opinion no other stock on our coverage list has as much long-term potential as Cree." On the other hand they reiterate a market outperform rating and price target is $90; Cree closed at 74 Friday I believe. I think this is because as they say "It's an extremely expensive proposition to ramp up the manufacturing capacity required to satisfy the current demand for high-brightness LEDs and the potentially greater future demand for silicon carbide chips..." They say Cree is raising $200 million more than it currently needs, and they expect them to use it in a strategic partnership, which they believe is necessary. It sounds in sum as if they think Cree is perfectly positioned to be a gorilla in this arena but that right now they have to spend a lot of $ to increase capacity--i.e. they're still in the building/positioning stage.
