Kioxia Shares Slump to ¥52,110 as Analysts See 130% Upside

1 articles · Updated · Bloomberg · Jul 20

Summary

  • Kioxia fell to ¥52,110 on Friday, leaving the Japanese memory-chip maker trading at less than half the record high it reached about a month ago.
  • A broader selloff in artificial-intelligence and semiconductor stocks worldwide has deepened the correction and dragged the shares lower in recent weeks.
  • Analysts have largely kept bullish ratings despite the drop, with the average price target sitting 130% above the current share price.
  • That optimism hinges on supply-demand conditions improving, which analysts say could allow Kioxia's stock to resume its upward trajectory.
