GIGADEVICE's stock price plummeted 8.84% during intraday trading on Monday, reflecting a broader downturn in the semiconductor sector. The decline occurred as multiple chip stocks trended lower in early trading.
The movement follows reports that major memory chip manufacturers, including Samsung, SK Hynix, and Micron, have collectively tightened their order review processes. These companies are implementing stricter due diligence on clients by verifying end-user identities, confirming actual demand volumes, and questioning order authenticity to prevent excessive ordering or chip hoarding that could cause market volatility.
Additional context includes comments from industry figures about order patterns, with broader market sentiment affecting chip stocks as the sector adjusts to these new supply chain controls aimed at stabilizing the memory chip market.
