On July 17, Marvell Technology fell 3.6% in regular trading, trading at $186.57/share, with turnover of $15.32 billion.
On the news front, Korea's Financial Services Commission, together with the Ministry of Finance and the central bank, tightened regulations on single-stock leveraged ETFs, raising minimum margin requirements from 10 million KRW to 30 million KRW and banning new product listings. This move targeted speculative capital in the memory chip sector, causing SK Hynix to plunge over 11% and Samsung Electronics to drop over 8%, with shockwaves rippling through U.S. semiconductor stocks. Simultaneously, the Bank of Korea raised interest rates by 25 basis points to 2.75%, increasing leveraged borrowing costs and accelerating capital outflows.
The Philadelphia Semiconductor Index fell over 5%, now down more than 20% from its historic high and entering a technical bear market. All 30 index components declined from their recent peaks. Marvell Technology has retreated 36% from its June high, making it the weakest constituent. Profit-taking sentiment remains elevated amid concerns that memory chip prices may have peaked.
