Shares have formed a bullish "flag" after the firm reported strong quarterly results and agreed to acquire Austin, Texas based Freescale Semiconductor (FSL). The Freescale–NXP merger is a cash and stock transaction that will see Freescale Semiconductor (FSL) shareholders receive $6.25 in cash plus 0.3521 shares of NXP Semiconductors (NXPI).
On April 24th, Apple will begin seling its iWatch. The ultramodern watch will be equipped with the NXPI's chip that powers near field communication (NFC). This is the heart of the Apple Pay.
