    They've got lots going on - I bought a little recently in the low 90's when they sold off during the market volatility (after having a big run up). And I just bought a little more a few minutes ago.

    NXP will benefit as wearables become more profitable.

    ---From a piece of research "Wearable devices’ real value is in the data. Collection, security, privacy, management, aggregation, analytics and monetization are all backend operations that require expertise. NXPI and ATML already provide sophisticated sensor hub technology for data collection and communication."

    "Other likely winners in the wearables market are INVN, Fitbit, Misfit Wearables, Jawbone, ARMH, TXN, BRCM, FSL,NXPI, QCOM, Bosch, Kionix and Xiaomi"

    IMHO, the extent of Apple Watch's success will be perceived as an indicator for the wearables market as a whole. Regardless of whether its a great success or just modest success, trends are indicating a slow but gradual increase in a desire for the technology. Consumer fashion devices (watches, hoodies, shoes, the Pavlok) are one thing; medical and law enforcement wearables may be a larger and more realistic market. The sure winners in the market will be the components makers.
