On May 29, MaxLinear fell 5.5% in regular trading, trading at $90.585/share, with trading volume of $103 million.
The decline was primarily driven by continued profit-taking pressure as the recurring pattern of intraday rallies followed by sharp selloffs persisted. MaxLinear had previously surged on strong Q1 results, with net revenue reaching $137.2 million, representing 43% year-over-year growth, a return to profitability, and an upwardly revised Q2 revenue guidance of $160 million to $170 million. However, since May 12, the stock has repeatedly faced profit-taking waves, with an 8.1% single-day drop on May 15 and a further 6% decline on May 18, establishing a clear pattern of short-term gains triggering concentrated selling.
Notably, the broader Semiconductors sector traded higher during the session, with Micron Technology up 6.15%, Broadcom up 4.34%, NVIDIA up 1.31%, Intel up 0.88%, and Advanced Micro Devices up 0.62%, indicating that MaxLinear's weakness was stock-specific rather than sector-driven.
