StocktoberFest – Horowitz & Company’s QFT Analysis on NXP Semiconductors (NXPI). 
(See the entire month’s schedule –> HERE)
Requested by: Ian
Horowitz & Company’s proprietary Technical Scoring System (T|score) takes into consideration both individual security technicals as well as the overall market direction when considering whether or not to purchase a company. H&C’s Market Trend Indicator (MTI) is a measure which is designed to evaluate the overall trend in the market. There are four designated levels to assess the trend which include: Strong Downtrend, Downtrend, Rally and Strong Rally. We are currently in an environment where the MTI is in a Downtrend. All of our indicators are showing that the markets are attempting to rally out of a Strong Downtrend or have pulled back from a Rally. Although one should still remain cautious when purchasing individual securities, this may be the time for those with a higher risk tolerance to begin to enter the market or add to those positions with a high level of technical scoring. With that in mind, this stock ranks in the mid to below average percentile of stocks from an individual security technical score. H&C would not consider purchasing this position in any general market with the exception of a Strong Rally. H&C would be hard pressed to purchase this position even in a Strong Rally considering all other companies that may score higher technically in our growth model.
Below are some of the areas where Nxp Semiconductors Nv (NXPI) excelled or detracted from the value of the technical score:
Stochastics are currently showing some bullish attributes which may mean this stock has some room to run in the short run
In terms of price and volume especially over a short period of time it is important to see if there is any weight behind either a rally or correction. This company has shown to have less than favorable price action in terms of volume and therefore has a greater chance to move lower if the overall market and economy are to trend lower. Higher volume with negative price also will provide resistance levels for this position if it were to increase back to these levels.
On a 12-month rolling period this company has performed very well when comparing against its peers and equities in the S&P 1500. We see this as a positive sign for this company as it shows strength relative to the overall market
H&C currently sees Nxp Semiconductors Nv (NXPI) in a Short Term Downtrend and Long Term Downtrend.

Sorry, there is not enough fundamental data to provide a decent level of analysis. This stock is too “new” as it only IPO’d within the last 2 years.
