Bernstein lowered the firm’s price target on Lam Research (LRCX) to $85 from $95 and keeps a Market Perform rating on the shares. The firm took down its 2025 wafer fab equipment estimate to $107B, down 1% year-over-year, from $115B, and 2026 spending estimate to $116B from $122B. The WFE cut reflects lower China spending given potential U.S. restrictions and a weaker outlook on NAND and logic, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Bernstein updated its models to reflect the new WFE forecasts.
