  • Vishay Precision Shares Drop 6.1% Amid Semiconductor Sector Weakness
    January 23, 2026, 1:05 PM EST. Shares of Vishay Precision (NYSE:VPG) fell 6.1% following a sharp decline in semiconductor stocks after Intel issued a cautious forecast. Intel's shares dropped nearly 13% due to a near-term supply squeeze that is affecting the chip industry broadly. Vishay Precision, known for precision measurement technologies, has seen volatile moves over the past year and is currently trading near its 52-week high of $47.79.
