Advisors' Opinion:- [By Ashraf Eassa]
On what was a nice day for the Nasdaq, which gained 1.05%, shares of Marvell (NASDAQ: MRVL ) plummeted 4.99% on what was seemingly no material news. However, interestingly enough, the company filed its form 10-Q today, which contained a bunch of new lawsuits that the company will have to deal with. Given the overhang from the Carnegie Mellon patent infringement suit, investors may be uneasy due to the new lawsuits that have appeared since the form 10-K was filed on March 27.

But its current valuation��t trades at 31 times earnings��akes me pause. At that price, you are implicitly expecting one of two things to happen:
The American whiskey boom continues unabated for years��nd isn�� replaced by something new and trendy. Brown-Forman will be acquired by a larger competitor (think Diageo or Pernod-Ricard (PDRDY)).The first assumption is one I�� be hesitant to make given the whims of fashion. And the second is even less likely. Brown-Forman is family controlled, and in the past the company has very adamant about preserving its independence.
