On July 13, STMicroelectronics fell 3.08% in regular trading, trading at 69.47 USD/share, with turnover of $212 million. The decline came amid a broader semiconductor sector rout as the previously dominant \"buy chips, sell software\" crowded trade shows signs of unwinding.
On the news front, the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index has fallen approximately 12% in July. Meta's reported plan to rent out idle AI computing capacity to external clients has punctured the market's core thesis that \"computing power will always be scarce,\" triggering a reassessment of AI capital expenditure trajectories. This was compounded by Samsung Electronics' Q2 earnings triggering a classic \"buy the rumor, sell the news\" reaction, setting off chain selling pressure across global chip stocks. The broader semiconductor sector saw heavy losses, with Micron Technology down 6.49%, Intel down 4.77%, AMD down 4.44%, Broadcom down 2.87%, and NVIDIA down 1.19%.
Additionally, STMicroelectronics is scheduled to report Q2 earnings on July 23, with consensus EPS estimate of $0.26. The approaching earnings window has amplified uncertainty and contributed to selling pressure.
