Semiconductor Stocks Tumble, Wiping Out $100 Billion Amid US-China Trade Tensions: Rocky Start To 2024

Author: Piero Cingari | January 02, 2024 12:09pm

Following stellar performance in 2023, U.S. semiconductor stocks have taken a hit at the start of 2024, with notable declines in Tuesday morning trading in New York. This downturn comes in the wake of the White House’s directive to a prominent European chipmaker, signaling escalating U.S.-China trade tensions.

What Happened: NVIDIA Corp. (NASDAQ:NVDA) witnessed a decline of 4%, while Advanced Micro Devices Inc. (NASDAQ:AMD) experienced a sharper drop of over 5%. Overall, the largest U.S.-traded 25 semiconductor companies have seen nearly $100 billion erased in market value in just the first trading hours of Tuesday.

Chart: Rocky Start To The Year For Major Chipmakers

As Bloomberg reported, Dutch chipmaker supplier ASML Holdings N.V (NASDAQ:ASML) complied with U.S. President Joe Biden‘s request to halt certain shipments to China weeks ahead of a new export ban’s enforcement.

ASML, Europe's tech giant, confirmed the Dutch government partially revoked licenses for shipping specific lithography systems to China, impacting a few customers. Despite these developments, ASML believes the recent blockade won’t significantly affect its 2023 financial outlook. Shares of ASML Holding N.V. dropped by 4.3%, marking their weakest daily performance since late July.

Why It Matters: In 2023, semiconductor stocks, as tracked by the iShares Semiconductor ETF (NYSE:SOXX), closed with a 66% gain, the best since 2009’s 74% annual increase. Yet the onset of 2024 presents challenges as the market begins to weigh the risks of a potential new tech trade war and its negative influence on the sector’s growth.
