Market Focus07-21 21:49

On July 21, Teradyne rose 9.28% in regular trading, trading at $363.77/share, with turnover of $153 million. The surge was driven by UBS raising its price target on Teradyne from $440 to $500 while maintaining a Buy rating, marking the third major investment bank to lift its target in recent weeks.

JPMorgan raised its target from $400 to $450 on July 16 with an Overweight rating, while Goldman Sachs raised its target from $350 to $465 on July 6. Earlier, Susquehanna had adjusted its target to $550 from $415 in late June. The consensus average target now stands at approximately $437.53 according to FactSet. The wave of institutional upgrades has significantly bolstered market confidence in Teradyne ahead of its Q2 earnings report scheduled for July 28, with expected EPS of $2.04.

The broader semiconductor equipment sector rallied in tandem, with Aehr Test up 17.15%, Applied Materials up 6.36%, KLA-Tencor up 3.88%, Lam Research up 3.46%, and ASML up 3.36%.
