Lam Research Corporation

Lam Research Corporation is a US company that provides wafer processing equipment and services to semiconductor manufacturers. Its shares trade on Nasdaq under the ticker LRCX.

The company focuses on the etch steps that form circuit patterns on silicon wafers and the thin-film deposition steps that lay down layers of material; cleaning systems are also part of its product range. This equipment plays a critical role especially in the production of multilayer NAND memory, DRAM and advanced logic chips. Spare parts, upgrades and services for the installed equipment base provide a separate income stream from customers. Its customers form a relatively narrow group made up of memory makers, foundries and integrated chipmakers.

For this stock, chipmakers' investment cycles, memory prices, export restrictions targeting China and dependence on a few large customers are watched. The LRCX page on Lzzo.com offers the share price in dollars and can also show the Turkish lira, euro or pound sterling equivalent. A historical price chart, technical indicators, the data source and the time of the last update are also among the page's sections.
