Contrary to what many think, a struggling economy can be good for buying stocks, as it typically features more bargains than an economy firing on all cylinders. Examine its annual and quarterly reports, evaluating factors such as its debt load, profit margins, free cash flow and growth rates. Today, while I'm not a bank and don't issue credit cards or extend credit, I'm a global payments giant with a market value near $170 billion. Skyworks Solutions (Nasdaq: SWKS) is a supplier of chips to smartphone giants such as Apple and Samsung, with the growth of mobile devices and wearables driving revenues from $1.5 billion to $3.2 billion in just three years. In addition to supplying RF (radio frequency) chips for smartphones, it sells analog semiconductors for wireless infrastructure, broadband applications, and the automotive, medical and military markets, among others. If Skyworks can get its RF chips into many devices accessing a rapidly expanding 4G LTE network, lessen its dependence on Apple for top- and bottom-line success, and expand into more IoT categories, this stock could be a big winner over the next decade.
