Stocks are cheap; we suggest focusing on fundamental outperformers

​Sector sales for May were up 4% MoM but down 2% YoY (largely dragged by Applerelated sales exposure). Looking into June, historical seasonal patterns show a slight MoM sales decline, and we do not see anything to alter the pattern this year. Despite an overall environment of lackluster tech demand, KYEC’s May sales rose to a new record high (+19% YoY) on bottom-up factors and it remains our sector top pick (see New record highs to drive valuation re-rating). Separately, PTI’s May sales also rose 11% YoY, and we believe the company will likely deliver record high sales sometime in 3Q16F (see One of the bright spots in tech). For reference, we estimate KYEC/PTI’s 2016F EPS will grow 30%/22% YoY, respectively.
