Linear Technology Corp "sell"

04/17/03 - Deutsche Bank

NEW YORK, April 17 (New Ratings) - Analysts at Deutsche Bank Securities issue a "sell" rating on Linear Technology Corp (LLTC).

The analysts mention that Linear Technology’s 3Q03 sales increased by 4% and gross margins increased to 74.40% over previous estimates. Despite reasonably good performance in 3Q03, the analysts say that they would prefer waiting for Linear’s Conference Call before effecting any changes in estimates or recommendation.
