I found the full article. Amat is considering buying companies? This usually happens when they think things are cheap...

He said services is a focus for the company and that the unit can outgrow its target "depending on acquisitions we are contemplating."

Did any of the possible targets get a pop on this news? I don't follow them.... The article mentions PX and BRKS

Applied has announced service deals in the past few months with Praxair (PX: news, chart, profile) and Brooks Automation (BRKS: news, chart, profile).

"If we make a few acquisitions in that space, we should grow more," he said.
