Chipstocks have bounced back sharply on the Wall Street on Thursday after Micron Technology Inc.'s blockbuster third quarter earnings.
Micron Technology was soared over 19% minutes after the opening bell to a high of $1,255. It pared some gains to trade 19% higher at $1,255.
Major semiconductor companies like Advanced Micro Devices Inc., Intel Corp., and Microchip Technology Inc. have risen 4.23%, 6.72% and 4.07% to $545.97, $140.02, and $96.55, respectively.
Besides this, Sandisk Corp. surged over 18% to $2,263.18. Qualcomm Inc.'s scrip also rose 10% to $216.77.
The rise comes after a consistent rout in these semiconductor companies in in the past few days. A global AI selloff rattled Wall Street indices, with tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite sliding over 2% in the last five days.
