shares traded at a seven-week high Friday after guiding toward stronger second-half sales, alongside wider company cost cuts, following weaker-than-expected second quarter earnings. Western Digital said adjusted earnings for the three months ending in December, its fiscal second quarter, came in at $1.45 per share, down more than 63% from the same period last year and 6 cents shy of the consensus forecast. Revenues fell 21% to $4.23 billion, essentially in-line with Street forecasts, and said third quarter earnings and sales would also miss estimates.
Lam Research stock rose Thursday after the chip-equipment maker posted better-than-expected December-quarter results Wednesday. Lam also authorized a $5 billion buyback.
NVIDIA shares moved sharply higher on Thursday amid trade optimism, which has traders watching these key levels.
BEIJING/SEOUL/PARIS (Reuters) - Sombre results from chipmakers SK Hynix Inc and Texas Instruments Inc, on the heels of warnings from tech behemoths Samsung and Apple, indicate more gloom for the sector as China's economy slows to its weakest in decades. The world's No.2 memory chipmaker, which depends on China for more than a third of its revenue, also said it plans to spend 40 percent less on buying chip equipment this year. Texas Instruments (TI), supplier of touchscreen controllers, power-management chips and a control device for Apple's iPhones and iPads, reported a better-than-expected quarterly profit, but its revenue missed estimates.
Investing.com - European chipmakers were among the strongest performers in midday trade on Thursday, as upbeat fourth-quarter earnings from STMicroelectronics (PA:STM) boosted the sector.
European shares were sluggish on Wednesday as a batch of poor corporate updates added to worries about a global growth slowdown and China-U.S. trade negotiations. The STOXX 600 ended down 0.1 percent, having wavered in and out negative territory throughout the session. After hitting two-year lows last month, the STOXX 600 has regained some ground so far this year with investors lured back by cheap valuations, although uncertainties remain over how long the rebound could last.
