On July 28, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing fell 3.19% in pre-market trading, trading at approximately $385.74 per share, with turnover of $9.27 million.
On the news front, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing is currently assessing damage at its Kumamoto factory following a disaster event, raising market concerns over potential capacity disruption. Simultaneously, the broader semiconductor sector continues to weaken, with the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index having pulled back more than 20% from its highs, entering a technical bear market. Funds continue to flow out of the crowded AI and computing trade, with the sector displaying a typical pattern of positive catalysts being fully priced in.
The sell-off is broad-based across the semiconductor industry. In pre-market trading on the same day, ASML fell 3.6%, Micron Technology dropped 5.47%, SK Hynix declined 5.37%, and Intel slid 4.41%. Although analysts recently raised price targets on Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing and the company reported record earnings on July 16, valuation digestion pressure continues to weigh on the stock as the sector undergoes a sustained de-rating cycle.
