On September 10, MaxLinear fell 5.43% in regular trading, trading at $67.695/share, with turnover of $28.75 million. The decline came after the stock had surged over 7% in the prior session alongside optical communications peers.
The pullback is largely attributed to broad-based weakness across the semiconductor sector, driven by a continued rise in long-end U.S. Treasury yields. The 10-year Treasury yield climbed to its highest level since November 2023, applying significant valuation pressure on high-growth chip stocks. The U.S. Treasury announced a buyback of up to $6 billion in 10-to-20-year bonds, which fell short of market expectations of $7 to $8 billion, further fueling the yield spike. Rising oil prices added to investor unease.
Within the Semiconductors sector, stocks declined broadly. Among individual names, Intel fell 4.83%, SK hynix fell 4.22%, Micron Technology fell 3.29%, NVIDIA fell 2.18%, and Advanced Micro Devices fell 2.05%.
