New York, Jan 10, 2026, 20:08 EST — Market closed.
- TTMI closed Friday (Jan. 9) roughly 10.5% higher, with shares fluctuating from $67.04 to $75.05 throughout the session.
- The jump outstripped other electronics manufacturing peers, which climbed by less than 3%.
- Coming next: Tuesday’s U.S. CPI report, followed by TTM’s appearance at the Needham Growth Conference on Jan. 13.
Shares of TTM Technologies surged 10.5% on Friday, ending the day at $73.88. The Nasdaq-traded stock reached an intraday peak of $75.05, with roughly 2.5 million shares changing hands.
The late-week surge stands out as a sharp, single-day reset in a hardware stock closely tied to AI and defense supplier demand. It comes at a time when investors are growing impatient with vague narratives and focusing more on concrete figures.
U.S. stocks wrapped up the week at record highs, driven by gains in chipmakers. The PHLX semiconductor index surged 2.7% to hit a new peak, while the S&P 500 also closed at an all-time high, according to Reuters. (Reuters)
“On the overall AI theme, investors are digging deeper, sorting out winners from losers,” said Zachary Hill, head of portfolio management at Horizon Investments. TTM operates in that space — less about big names, more about the underlying infrastructure. (Reuters)
TTM manufactures printed circuit boards, which link and route signals between chips and various components. The company also offers mission systems and RF components, serving sectors like aerospace, defense, networking, and data center computing, according to Reuters data. (Reuters)
The stock slipped following the close. By 8:00 p.m. ET Saturday, TTMI was trading at $72.89 in after-hours, down roughly 1.3% from Friday’s finish, according to Public.com. (Public)
Peers saw gains as well, but none matched the leader’s pace. Jabil ticked up roughly 1.9% Friday, Flex advanced the same 1.9%, Sanmina jumped 2.8%, and Plexus increased 1.8%, according to LSEG data.
Macro data shaped the mood. U.S. nonfarm payrolls rose 50,000 in December, while the unemployment rate slipped to 4.4%, the Labor Department reported. This kept hopes for rate cuts intact without signaling a sharp recession. (Reuters)
Defense stocks gained traction earlier this week after President Donald Trump proposed a $1.5 trillion U.S. military budget, Reuters reported. “It’s become a ‘show me’ sector,” said Art Hogan, chief market strategist at B. Riley Wealth, commenting on AI-driven valuations and the growing demand for tangible returns. (Reuters)
That rally could unravel quickly if upcoming macro data disappoints. “Everything is priced near perfection,” warned Matthew Miskin, co-chief investment strategist at Manulife John Hancock Investments, noting markets tend to get skittish around headline risk. Key events this week: Tuesday’s CPI report and the start of earnings season from major banks.
TTM has a catalyst lined up. CEO Edwin Roks and CFO Dan Boehle are set to present at the Needham Growth Conference in New York on Jan. 13 at 8:45 a.m. Eastern. (GlobeNewswire)
Traders are eyeing the next key timestamp: TTM’s presentation, set for Jan. 13 at 8:45 a.m. EST, right after markets reopen Monday following the weekend. The slot appears on the company’s IR calendar. (Ttm)
