Movement Alert|Advanced Micro Devices Falls 3.03% in Regular Trading, Surging Treasury Yields and Inflation Fears Pressure Semiconductor Sector

Market Focus
Sep 10

On September 10, Advanced Micro Devices fell 3.03% in regular trading, trading at $504.33/share, with turnover of $1.71 billion. The decline came amid a broad selloff across the semiconductor sector driven by surging U.S. Treasury yields and renewed inflation concerns.

The immediate catalyst was hotter-than-expected August PPI data, which reignited rate hike expectations. The 30-year U.S. Treasury yield soared to 5.34%, the highest since 2007, while the 10-year yield climbed 4-8 basis points, breaching multi-year highs. As a high-valuation growth sector, semiconductors are acutely sensitive to rising discount rates. The Philadelphia Semiconductor Index fell over 3%, dragging the entire chip complex lower.

Within the Semiconductors sector, the selloff was broad-based. Among individual stocks, Intel fell 6.04%, SK hynix fell 5.70%, Micron Technology fell 4.06%, NVIDIA fell 2.73%, and Broadcom fell 0.76%. Oil prices simultaneously broke above $100 per barrel, compounding inflation fears and further suppressing risk appetite for growth-oriented assets.
