Maxim Integrated Products (MXIM) has experienced a brutal August as an escalation in the trade war has led to investors to grapple with instability and make difficult decisions with respect to macro-exposed equities. Maxim, the maker of analog and mixed-signal products, has multiple end markets that are susceptible to the ongoing trade war, making it difficult for the company to generate earnings consistently. This in turn has led the stock back down to its six-month lows, and there doesn't seem to be enough of a rationale to buy it at these low levels.
