MU is down -5.83% during Monday's regular session, extending pre-market weakness of roughly -2%, with shares sliding from Friday's close of $823.03 to approximately $775. The primary catalyst is China's CXMT announcing plans to build a second DRAM plant in Beijing, which could more than double its production capacity and threaten the pricing power of incumbent memory makers.
Micron Technology (MU) shares declined approximately 20.8% over the last 30 days, falling from $975.56 on July 2 to $772.87 as of August 3, 2026. The sell-off erased over $400 billion in market value despite Micron reporting the strongest quarterly results in company history, with fiscal Q3 revenue of $41.46 billion — up 346% year over year.
Intel shares fell approximately 28% over the last 30 days, erasing a significant portion of the stock's massive first-half 2026 rally. Reports that the 18A manufacturing process may not reach profitable yields until late 2026 or 2027 triggered the sharpest selling, undercutting the core turnaround narrative.
ARM shares surged approximately 16.8% over the past 30 days, driven by strong AI-related demand and upbeat market sentiment around semiconductor licensing. Over the last quarter, ARM has maintained a robust upward trajectory, reinforcing its position as a key beneficiary of the ongoing artificial intelligence infrastructure buildout.
Marvell Technology shares dropped approximately 26.9% over the 30-day period ending August 3, 2026, falling from $245.29 to $179.32, driven primarily by a sector-wide semiconductor selloff rather than company-specific weakness. The stock's dramatic decline erased gains from a parabolic rally that saw MRVL peak at $329.88 on June 18, with the drawdown fueled by AI capex sustainability fears, stretched valuations, and profit-taking after S&P 500 inclusion.
Target price: $1,500 per share, a level widely cited by major Wall Street firms including Deutsche Bank, TD Cowen, Cantor Fitzgerald, and Bank of America. Current position: MU closed at $823.03 on July 31, 2026, down roughly 35% from its late-June all-time high of $1,255, meaning the stock would need to rally approximately 84% to reach $1,500.
Intel Corporation (NASDAQ: INTC) closed at $90.20 on July 31, 2026, retreating roughly 37% from its 52-week high of $142.35 — making the $100 level a critical psychological recovery target. The strongest bullish factors include surging server CPU demand tied to AI infrastructure, the successful ramp of Intel's 18A manufacturing process, and strategic backing from Nvidia's $5 billion equity investment and U.S. government CHIPS Act support.
Arm Holdings plc ( ARM ) closed at $239.69 on July 31, 2026, requiring a roughly 25% rally to reclaim the $300 level after a sharp pullback from its all-time high of $452.70 reached in June. The strongest bullish catalyst is the company's AGI CPU initiative, which has already secured over $2 billion in customer demand across fiscal 2027 and 2028, with Meta, Google, Microsoft, NVIDIA, and OpenAI all building Arm-based silicon.
Qualcomm Incorporated (QCOM) closed at $147.61 on July 31, 2026 — roughly 103% below the widely discussed $300 price target and approximately 43% below its May 2026 record high of $259.92. The bullish case rests on Qualcomm's aggressive data center expansion, with a $15 billion fiscal 2029 revenue target, hyperscaler partnerships with META and MSFT , and a $65 billion automotive design-win pipeline.
Price target in focus: $300 per share — a level MRVL briefly surpassed in June 2026 before pulling back roughly 37% to its current price near $188. Strongest bullish factors: explosive data center revenue growth (76% of total revenue), a deepening partnership with NVDA via NVLink Fusion, and a custom silicon pipeline targeting over $4 billion annually by 2028.
ON Semiconductor is scheduled to report Q2 2026 results after market close on Monday, August 3, 2026, for the quarter ended July 3, 2026. Consensus estimates call for earnings per share (EPS) of approximately $0.71 to $0.72 on revenue of roughly $1.59 billion, representing double-digit year-over-year growth on both lines.
Texas Instruments Incorporated (TXN) closed at $275.74 on July 31, 2026, meaning the $400 target requires an approximate 45% advance from current levels. Several Wall Street firms — including Seaport Global, KeyCorp, and Arete Research — have issued price targets of $400 to $405, anchoring the $400 level in serious analyst discussion.
QCOM fell -5.32% to $147.40 during Thursday's regular session, extending a steep after-hours selloff that began Wednesday evening following the company's fiscal Q3 earnings release. The primary catalyst was a Q4 EPS guidance of $2.05–$2.25, well below the $2.36 consensus, overshadowing a modest Q3 revenue beat of $9.94 billion vs. $9.67 billion expected.
Revenue beat, EPS missed: Qualcomm reported fiscal Q3 2026 revenue of $9.95 billion, exceeding consensus estimates of approximately $9.69 billion, while non-GAAP (adjusted) earnings per share of $2.21 narrowly missed the $2.22–$2.23 consensus. Handset weakness persists: QCT handset revenue fell 20% year-over-year to $5.09 billion, pressured by memory supply constraints, higher input costs, and softer demand from Chinese smartphone makers.
Micron Technology shares fell approximately 28% over the past 30 days, dropping from $1,145.28 on June 29 to $820.53 on July 28, 2026. The sell-off was driven by a sector-wide retreat from AI-linked memory stocks, renewed fears of Chinese competition after ChangXin Memory Technologies' IPO, and growing skepticism around hyperscaler AI spending.
NVTS shares plunged -10.96% to $10.16 during Tuesday's regular session, following a -2% to -3% after-hours decline Monday after the company reported Q2 2026 earnings. The primary catalyst was a Q2 GAAP net loss of $228.2 million ($0.95/share), which included a $203.1 million non-cash earnout liability charge that dramatically overshadowed a revenue beat of $10.53M vs. $9.84M expected.
Navitas Semiconductor (NVTS) shares fell approximately 34% over the last 30 days, driven primarily by a patent infringement lawsuit filed by competitor Wolfspeed on July 7, 2026. The lawsuit targets five core Navitas product lines — including GaNFast, GaNSlim, GaNSafe, GeneSiC MOSFETs, and SiCPAK modules — and seeks a permanent U.S. sales and import ban.
ARM shares plunged approximately -8.4% during regular trading Tuesday, extending premarket weakness after a global semiconductor sell-off swept through Asian and European markets overnight. The rout was sparked by a report that a Chinese firm achieved mass production of DUV lithography technology, threatening ASML's dominance and intensifying fears of overstretched AI-sector valuations.
INTC fell -5.79% to $86.36 during Tuesday's regular session, extending a multi-session slide that has erased over 38% from its June 22 peak near $141. The sell-off was triggered by a rout in Asian semiconductor stocks, where South Korea's Kospi plunged 10.8% and trading was halted after Samsung and SK Hynix each dropped over 13%.
AMD fell -7.85% during Tuesday's regular session, deepening Monday's -5.17% loss as a sector-wide semiconductor rout accelerated at the open. The primary catalyst was Chinese memory chipmaker CXMT's explosive Shanghai IPO, surging +466% to a ~$487 billion valuation and stoking fears of intensified competition for U.S. chipmakers.
