UBS maintains a 'Neutral' on Linear Technology (NASDAQ: LLTC) price target of $33.00 (from $35.00).

Analyst, Uche Orji, lowers his estimates for FY13, from $2.21 to $2.14 and FY14 from $2.49 to $2.40. Unfortunately, Orji, sees challenges with the company continue to keep up industrial revenues. All three main areas where LLTC focus business, (US, Europe and China) are showing signs of industrial slowing. As well, automotive, which has been robust, now looks like it's cooling.

In the end, Orji, said, "Furthermore, lead times remain low, and therefore any restocking driven upside is unlikely till we see sustained improvement in end-market demand."
