Movement Alert|Himax Technologies Falls 8.48% in Regular Trading, Semiconductor Sector Selloff Continues Amid AI Valuation Concerns and Profit-Taking

Market Focus06-05 22:29

On June 5, Himax Technologies fell 8.48% in regular trading, trading at approximately $21.73/share, with trading volume of $26.18 million. The stock extended its decline for a second consecutive session as the broader semiconductor and optical communications sector remained under heavy selling pressure.

On the news front, the semiconductor sector continued to face broad-based weakness after Broadcom's CEO declined to raise fiscal year 2027 AI revenue guidance despite delivering strong quarterly results, triggering market concerns over an AI valuation bubble. Within the sector, Marvell Technology fell 6.96%, Advanced Micro Devices fell 6.92%, Micron Technology fell 6.17%, Broadcom fell 4.91%, and NVIDIA fell 3.41%, reflecting widespread risk-off sentiment across AI-linked names.

Additionally, Himax had previously surged over 16% in a short span after being identified by analysts as a key beneficiary of TSMC's COUPE silicon photonics project. The rapid prior accumulation of gains has intensified profit-taking pressure amid the sector-wide correction.
