On August 21, Marvell Technology declined 3.08% in regular trading, trading at approximately $242.91/share, with turnover of $13.17 billion. The pullback followed a cumulative gain of over 14% in the prior two trading sessions driven by a custom chip cooperation agreement with Google.
The current decline exhibits typical profit-taking characteristics as short-term gains proved too large for investors to resist locking in profits. Despite bullish analyst actions — Oppenheimer raised its price target from $250 to $300 maintaining an Outperform rating, Citi lifted its target to $275, and Wedbush expressed optimism on the custom semiconductor supply chain — selling pressure remained dominant. The broader semiconductor sector also weighed on sentiment, with Intel down 1.69%, Advanced Micro Devices down 0.63%, NVIDIA down 0.44%, and Micron Technology down 0.6%.
