Marvell stock price steadies near $80 as Jefferies flags $120 target ahead of earnings

New York, Jan 17, 2026, 18:22 EST — Market closed. Marvell Technology shares closed Friday nearly flat at $80.46, eking out a slight gain after swinging widely throughout the session as investors returned to chip stocks linked to data centers. U.S. equity and options markets will shut down Monday, Jan. 19, in observance of Martin Luther King Jr. Day. That means Tuesday is the first opportunity for investors to move on semiconductor and AI spending trades. (NASDAQ Trader) The stock has reacted sharply to changes in expectations around “custom” AI silicon—chips tailored for specific clients, typically cloud providers—and the networking

New York, January 17, 2026, 18:03 EST — Market closed. On Friday, Arm Holdings Plc’s sponsored ADRs ticked up roughly 0.6% to close at $105.78. U.S. stocks ended almost unchanged in a jittery session ahead of the long weekend, with chipmakers pushing higher once again, according to Reuters. “Markets have been flat-lining” as the earnings season kicks off, said Anthony Saglimbene, chief market strategist at Ameriprise Financial.

Analog Devices stock dips into MLK break as Wall Street turns more bullish — what to watch next

New York, Jan 17, 2026, 17:51 EST — Market closed. Analog Devices shares slipped 0.6% to end Friday at $300.25, retreating from an earlier peak of $309.26, a 52-week high. Trading volume reached roughly 4.3 million shares. The intraday reversal is significant since ADI is seen as a bellwether for the “analog” chip cycle — the slower, industrial-focused segment of semiconductors that usually lags the headline AI stocks. When it’s near the peak of its range, even small shifts can shake it up. U.S. markets will be closed Monday in observance of Martin Luther King Jr. Day, reopening Tuesday. Investors

Trading volume reached roughly 1.5 million shares, surpassing the 50-day average, as investors absorbed a volatile week in the semiconductor sector. (MarketWatch) The stock’s strength late last week came after a chip-driven rally on Thursday, sparked by Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co’s earnings and outlook, which shifted expectations around factory spending. Reuters noted that chip-tool makers Applied Materials, Lam Research, and KLA each climbed over 7% that

The stock fluctuated from $346.65 to $365.59, with roughly 47.9 million shares traded. U.S. markets were closed Monday for the holiday, but Micron’s rally puts it near the front of traders’ minds heading into Tuesday.

Micron focuses solely on memory — the chips that store data or serve as short-term “working” memory in servers and devices. Its main area of emphasis is high-bandwidth
