I've suffered with KMET for the last eighteen months or so. Upside is probably strong capacitor market going forward 1998 - 1999. Downside is variable of potential price competition going forward due to reduction and removal of tarrifs on foreign capacitor manufacturers, wackiness in palladium costs etc. Hope it breaks into mid-30's over the next year.

My favorite "other" analog IC manufacturer is Sipex (SIPX). Present run rate about $45 million, market cap about $380 mil. I think it will be another LLTC over next five years. Right now it's rather pricey with P/E in 50's (selling off a few bucks today) but I may buy some if it corrects. Wish I woulda bought a year or so ago. Thought about it but at that point I had both MXIM and LLTC and did not want to overconcentrate.

I don't know ELNT at all, maybe will take a look.
