On June 23, ARM Holdings fell 3.56% overnight, trading at $393.91/share, with turnover of $12.604 million. The decline was driven by a confluence of an analyst downgrade and broad-based semiconductor sector weakness.
On the news front, New Street Research downgraded ARM from Buy to Neutral with a target price of $375, significantly below the current trading level, continuing to weigh on market sentiment. According to FactSet data, ARM carries an average analyst rating of overweight with a mean price target of $271.38, highlighting the divergence among Wall Street opinions on the stock's valuation.
Meanwhile, the semiconductor sector experienced widespread selling pressure, with Intel declining 3.12%, Marvell Technology falling 3.43%, Micron Technology dropping 2.75%, and AMD down 1.60%, creating sector-wide drag on ARM. Additionally, persistent hawkish signals from the Federal Reserve have kept high interest rate expectations intact, placing outsized pressure on ARM given its elevated PE ratio of approximately 519x. Funds continue to rotate out of high-valuation names amid the tightening monetary environment.
