Movement Alert｜AXT Inc Intraday Decline 8.8%, Profit-Taking Continues After Historical High Amid Sector Weakness and Long-Term Technology Concerns

Market Focus06-01 21:37

On June 1, AXT Inc fell 8.8% in regular trading, trading at $105.17/share, with trading volume of approximately $145 million, extending its pattern of sharp pullbacks from recent highs.

On the news front, the stock had previously surged over 16% in a single session on May 22 after Q1 earnings beat expectations — revenue grew 38.7% year-over-year with losses narrowing significantly — driven by robust AI optical communications demand. After breaking through its all-time high, sustained profit-taking pressure has emerged across multiple consecutive trading sessions.

Today's semiconductor equipment sector weakness further compounded the selling pressure, with Lam Research down 1.04% and Applied Materials down 0.43%. Additionally, market concerns over silicon photonics technology evolution potentially weakening long-term demand for AXT's core indium phosphide substrates, combined with China's export controls on indium metal impacting the company's shipment rhythm and order conversion capabilities, collectively weighed on share performance.
