On July 6, Lam Research rose 3.23% in regular trading, trading at $360.81/share, with turnover of $193 million. The gain was driven by a broad oversold rebound across the semiconductor equipment sector, coupled with Morgan Stanley raising its price target on the stock to $404 from $331.
The rebound follows a sharp selloff in previous sessions, during which the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index plunged 11% over two consecutive days after Meta announced the sale of surplus computing capacity, sparking concerns about overcapacity in AI infrastructure. Zuckerberg also acknowledged that AI agent development had fallen behind expectations. Lam Research tumbled over 15% during that two-day decline, dropping from approximately $391 to $351.
Beyond the technical recovery, institutional support remains strong. Morgan Stanley now targets $404, while BofA Securities recently raised its target to $480, and Susquehanna set its target at $475 with a Positive rating. The consensus mean target stands at approximately $365, suggesting analysts broadly view the stock as undervalued at current levels. Peer stocks including ASML (+3.02%), KLA (+2.59%), Applied Materials (+2.35%), and Teradyne (+4.36%) all rose in tandem, confirming sector-wide recovery momentum.
