KLAC - KLA Corp

Technology

Explain to me like I’m five years old why KLAC just YOLO’d from 800 to almost 1850 in a year. Feels like we’ve gone straight from rags to literal stonks legend. The chart looks like it took a Red Bull and then ate a rocket. Yeah, this beast has doubled up more times than my lunch order. If you bought at 800, congrats on the yacht. So, here’s the deal. KLAC keeps printing higher highs because everyone suddenly cares about semis and foundry equipment. The whole supply chain is getting squeezed for every last margin dollar, and KLAC is happy to oblige. Every quarterly call lately? Beat and raise, rinse and repeat. Sure, it’s not as spicy as the meme names, but guess who actually has profits? I’m bullish, but not sending this thing to Mars. Targeting 2100.00 in the next 12 weeks. That’s about 13.5 percent from here, which is basically a light jog compared to its recent sprint but still spicy enough. The risk is that after this kind of run, you get one guide down, and the whole thing could panic sell like a bagholder at 3:59 PM. Also, valuations are full send right now so you need continued growth, no room for a nap. Next earnings are the catalyst, obviously. If KLAC pulls another surprise, shorts are gonna hate life. If not…well, you might get the dip you were waiting for. Diamond hands not required but maybe just one pinky on the mouse to sell if things get weird.
