Stock Track | Hua Hong Semiconductor Soars 5.14% Intraday on Chip Sector Recovery and Strong AI Demand

Stock Track04-22

Hua Hong Semiconductor's stock price surged 5.14% during intraday trading on Wednesday, reflecting significant investor optimism toward the chipmaker.

The rally comes as the broader semiconductor sector shows signs of establishing a bottom pattern on weekly charts, with both Hua Hong Semiconductor and SMIC recently forming gap-up patterns that signal potential upward momentum. This technical recovery is being supported by fundamental demand drivers, particularly from the artificial intelligence sector, where companies like DeepSeek are expanding data center operations in strategic locations like Ulanqab as part of China's East-to-West computing initiative.

Hua Hong's strong financial performance is also contributing to the positive sentiment. The company recently reported record quarterly revenue of US$635 million, representing a 20.7% year-over-year increase, with capacity utilization reaching an impressive 109.5% and gross margin of 13.5% exceeding guidance. Analyst firm Daiwa highlighted that Hua Hong stands to benefit from downstream demand growth and its role as a wafer supplier for AI-collaborative chips, which could enhance its pricing power and margin improvement prospects.
