Silicon Motion Technology<\/strong> (SIMO +0.80%<\/span>)<\/span> recently shed more than 20% of its value from all-time highs, but the dip looks like a buying opportunity. Investors have been buying this dip, already starting to close the gap between the stock’s 20% downturn.<\/p>\n

Is this post-correction recovery sustainable, or is the dip bound to intensify?<\/p>\n

Here’s what investors should know about this under-the-radar AI stock.<\/p>\n

What Silicon Motion Technology does<\/h2>\n

Silicon Motion Technology specializes in NAND flash controllers, a component that goes inside solid-state drives and other AI memory products. The company’s products are vital components of the AI boom, and that has translated into compelling financial results.<\/p>\n

The company delivered 23% sequential sales growth in the first quarter. This is normally a slow quarter for Silicon Motion Technology, but proved to be a stand-out performance instead. Its Ferri and Boot Drive products, key parts of the AI build-out, commanded more than 750% year-over-year revenue growth and more than tripled sequentially. <\/p>\n

Overall sales more than doubled year over year, but it was Silicon Motion Technology’s Q2 guidance that truly captured people’s attention. A projected 20% sequential growth rate in Q2 showed investors that Silicon Motion Technology is exhibiting the same pattern of meaningful sequential growth that turned Micron<\/strong>\u00a0and Sandisk<\/strong>\u00a0into superstar growth stocks.<\/p>\n

The bullish J.P. Morgan Conference<\/h2>\n

There haven’t been any concrete financial updates since Silicon Motion Technology reported Q1 results in the end of April. However, the company’s executives recently spoke at J.P. Morgan<\/strong>‘s\u00a054th Annual Global Technology, Media, and Communications Conference.<\/p>\n
