This company has been trading down on a continued selling pressure since issuing quarterly statements en January 20th. Synaptics Incorporated saw more than it's fair share of analyst downgrades since then. The company presents good value at these levels, and it will be interesting to acquire a position and hold it for the coming quarter.

For the cautious investor:
Buy the stock for 26$ or less.

The September 2011 26$ out-of-the-money call option contract seems to be the right position to take, they can be acquired for about 275$ per contract.

Exit Strategy
For the cautious investor:
Sell when the stock reaches 32$. It is highly recommended to keep the position on check if it goes sour.

For the risk-taking trader:
The contracts should be kept until the underlying reaches around 32$. This should provide a satisfactory return if the underlying reaches the target price as the contracts will get in the money.
