Applied Materials stock nears 52-week high as filing says DOJ, SEC closed probes

Applied Materials stock nears 52-week high as filing says DOJ, SEC closed probes

New York, February 21, 2026, 13:23 EST — The market is closed. Applied Materials disclosed in its latest quarterly filing that both the U.S. Justice Department and the SEC have ended their probes following subpoenas over export-controls compliance—no enforcement action from either. The same document details a settlement, reached Feb. 11, with the Commerce Department’s Bureau of Industry and Security; the deal includes a $253 million payment and a suspended “denial order” that could block exports if terms aren’t met, but will be waived after three years if conditions hold. China was responsible for $2.095 billion, or 30%, of the company’s quarterly sales. Applied also noted it still has about $13.6 billion left for buybacks under its repurchase authorization.

Chip stocks brace for holiday week: Applied Materials surges, Nvidia slides — what to watch next

New York, Feb 14, 2026, 12:09 PM EST — The market is closed. Applied Materials surprised with a bullish forecast, offering a rare win for U.S. semiconductor names after a turbulent stretch. The chip equipment giant projected second-quarter revenue near $7.65 billion, give or take $500 million, and adjusted earnings of $2.64 a share, plus or minus 20 cents—both clearing Wall Street’s bar. The stock at one point soared more than 10% Friday. Competitors Lam Research and KLA moved higher as well. At least 22 analysts lifted price targets on Applied after the numbers came through. CEO Gary Dickerson credited “the acceleration of industry investments in AI computing” for the jump. Morningstar’s William Kerwin described the moment as “a massive wafer fabrication equipment growth cycle,” pointing to tight supply for high-bandwidth memory chips feeding AI processors.

  • Tesla (TSLA) Trades Above Industry Averages as Investors Weigh Valuation and Growth Bets
    June 30, 2026, 11:55 PM EDT. Tesla is trading at $420.60, up 91.3% over five years, but some numbers point to a stretched valuation. Its price-to-sales (P/S) ratio sits at 16.1x, well above the industry's 0.6x and peers at 1.4x. A separate fair value model comes in at 3.5x. Simply Wall St gives Tesla zero on its valuation checks, saying the stock doesn't stack up by earnings, assets, or cash flow. Bulls keep faith in Tesla's AI, robotics, and energy plans, supporting the high price, but there are worries about Full Self Driving and regulatory issues. The big question is whether Tesla's share price already bakes in its ambitious AI and energy goals or if investors have more to price in.
