SHANGHAI, Feb 8, 2026, 08:45 GMT+8 — Market shut down for the session.
- Cambricon finished the previous session at 1,036.99 yuan, slipping 2.02%.
- After a volatile start to the week, the stock has dropped roughly 16.5% since Feb. 2.
- Investors want to see the company’s upcoming results back up its profit turnaround story.
Cambricon Technologies Corp Ltd’s Class A shares slid 2.02% to finish at 1,036.99 yuan on Friday. Roughly 8.0 million shares changed hands, the stock showing fresh signs of strain as investors wrapped up the week. 1
This is a big deal: Cambricon now stands as a high-beta read on China’s onshore “AI hardware” space. It’s one of those packed trades that can flip direction quickly if sentiment sours.
This week, it’s a positioning game. Price discovery’s getting pushed hard, especially in the usual favorites, and Cambricon’s tape—far from gliding—resembles a stress test right now.
Since Feb. 2, shares have dropped about 16.5% based on recent closing prices. The stock tumbled 9.18% on Feb. 3, then shed another 5.32% on Feb. 4, before losses slowed heading into Friday. 2
Cambricon’s annual outlook is the last major company-specific marker here. In a Jan. 31 filing, the firm projected 2025 revenue between 6.0 billion and 7.0 billion yuan, with net profit attributable to shareholders seen landing at 1.85 billion to 2.15 billion yuan. That’s a sharp turnaround from last year’s loss. Management credited stronger AI computing demand for the revenue surge, but flagged that these forecasts are still unaudited. 3
Semiconductor sentiment reversed course late in the week outside of China. On Friday, chip shares jumped after Nvidia’s Jensen Huang declared AI chip demand was “going through the roof.” That move has the potential to set up Asian tech stocks for gains when trading resumes. 4
Cambricon, listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange, carries a valuation near 437.28 billion yuan, according to Investing.com. Over the past year, shares have swung between about 520.67 yuan and 1,595.88 yuan. 5
Next up, the 1,000-yuan mark gets the spotlight. It’s not listed anywhere as an official threshold, but when momentum-driven money starts pulling back, a round number like that can flip sentiment fast.
Still, there’s risk here. Should the audited annual report narrow that profit range, or if orders aren’t coming in as quickly as investors expect, this is a stock that’s already proved it can tumble fast. Another sharp move down isn’t off the table.
Earnings season is up next. Cambricon has its earnings report slated for March 13, Investing.com shows. 6
