On June 23, Flex Ltd. declined 3.43% overnight, trading at $151.01/share, with turnover of $695,500.
On the news front, Flex was officially added to the S&P 500 Index before market open on June 22, replacing Pool Corp. On the effective date, concentrated buying from passive funds tracking the index pushed the stock up 3.31%. With the inclusion event now fully priced in, short-term profit-taking pressure has emerged. Meanwhile, the Electronic Manufacturing Services sector is broadly under pressure, with TTM Technologies down 5.17%, Celestica down 3.95%, Fabrinet down 3.46%, Jabil Circuit down 1.39%, and TE Connectivity down 0.79%, creating additional sector-wide headwinds for the stock.
Additionally, the prior positive catalyst from the company's planned spinoff of its Cloud Computing and Power Infrastructure (CPI) business into an independent publicly listed entity continues to serve as medium-term support, though near-term selling pressure following the index inclusion event dominates price action.
