10 Information Technology Stocks Whale Activity In Today's Session

Super Micro Computer, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMCI#NASDAQ">SMCI</a>) has reportedly become the second most shorted&nbsp;in the technology hardware and&nbsp;equipment industry.
What Happened: S3 Partners has found that 22.3% of Super Micro&#8217;s floating shares are shorted, a short interest valued at $3.89 billion. According to Ihor Dusaniwsky, S3&#8217;s Managing Director, short sellers have augmented their positions by 38% this year, incorporating shares worth $1.1 billion, <a href="https://fortune.com/2025/04/01/supermicro-general-counsel-audit-accounting-investigation-short-seller-stock-profit-ai/">reported</a> Fortune
"Shorting SMCI has not been a profitable trade for the full year, but recently it has been very profitable," stated Dusaniwsky. In the past month alone, short sellers have added 10.7 million shares, a 10% increase in total shares shorted. Despite a year-to-date loss of $263 million, short sellers managed to earn $7 million in profits in March, marking an 18.2% return.
Meanwhile, on Monday, Super Micro Computer appointed Yitai Hu as General Counsel &amp; Senior Vice President, Corporate Development, following a board recommendation from an independent investigation into management and accounting practices. The move is part of the company's efforts to improve internal functions and ensure continued compliance.

Why It Matters: Super Micro and CEO Charles Liang are still dealing with the repercussions of their accounting issues, facing multiple lawsuits and investigations from the Department of Justice (DoJ) and the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
Despite the financial challenges, Liang remains hopeful of a turnaround. Super Micro has confirmed its cooperation with the regulators and the company has recently issued financial filings after months of delay, which Liang considers a significant milestone. The firm aims to meet&nbsp;a $40 billion revenue target&nbsp;by 2025. 
Super Micro&#8217;s current predicament comes on the heels of a&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/03/44459593/super-micro-computer-feels-the-heat-from-competitors-customers-supplies-this-analyst-turns-bearish">downgrade</a>&nbsp;from Goldman Sachs in late March. Analyst Michael Ng downgraded the rating for Super Micro Computer from Neutral to Sell, while reducing the price target from $40 to $32. He cited downside risks on valuation, competition, and gross margins as the reasons for the downgrade. This bearish outlook, coupled with the company&#8217;s ongoing accounting issues, has likely contributed to the surge in short interest.
Super Micro Computer stock rose 2.37% to close at $35.05 on Tuesday. The stock lost nearly 17% over the past 6 months.

Why It's Important: Tesla retook the crown in March as the most-searched ticker on Benzinga Pro, narrowly edgeing out the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust. Tesla ranked first or second in many searches over the past two years and finished 2024 as the second most-searched ticker before falling to fifth place in February.
The Invesco QQQ Trust was one of the biggest gainers in March going from 17th place in February to fourth place in March. Apple also rejoined the top 10 going from 16th place to eighth place.
Super Mico Computer, which ranked first in the month of February, fell to ninth place in March. The company continues to be one of the most-searched tickers on Benzinga Pro in recent months.

Here's How Much You Would Have Made Owning Super Micro Computer Stock In The Last 15 Years

Super Micro Computer, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMCI#NASDAQ">SMCI</a>) shares are trading on volatility on Monday amid reports suggesting that upcoming tariffs could be <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/03/44458244/tech-sector-to-see-major-impact-from-tariffs-and-teslas-delivery-numbers-says-top-analyst-calls-april-2-as-the-vortex-day">narrower-than-expected</a>.
What To Know: According to <a href="https://www.wsj.com/politics/policy/trump-tariff-reciprocal-deadline-industrial-delay-97508838">The Wall Street Journal</a>, President Donald Trump and his administration are considering excluding certain sectors from the upcoming April 2 tariffs.
Trump has designated April 2 as &#8220;Liberation Day,&#8221; during which he plans to implement reciprocal tariffs on several countries. Certain sectors, including automobiles, pharmaceuticals and semiconductors, are reportedly likely to be excluded from these tariffs. The specific sectors that may be excluded have not been announced by the White House.
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent explained that the administration is focused on imposing tariffs on about 15% of nations with significant trade imbalances with the U.S., a group sometimes referred to as the &#8220;dirty 15.&#8221; While the exact countries have not yet been disclosed, the secretary noted that the countries account for most of the U.S.&#8217;s foreign trade.
Super Micro shares are experiencing volatility following this news, as the company&#8217;s technology relies on semiconductors. If the semiconductor industry is excluded from the tariffs, it could help ensure chip prices remain stable, which would benefit Super Micro. Additionally, uncertainty around the potential impact of tariffs on the company&#8217;s global supply chain and production costs could contribute to further volatility in its stock.

Shares of companies in the broader tech sector are trading higher amid an overall market rebound on reports suggesting tariffs could be narrower and targeted.

While Super Micro Computer Inc's (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMCI#NASDAQ">SMCI</a>) stock has gained 38% year-to-date, "making it the best performing stock in our Hardware coverage," there are downside risks on valuation, competition and gross margins, according to Goldman Sachs.
The Super Micro Computer Analyst: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst/5a1c4e20efacff00015a984c/michael-ng">Analyst Michael Ng</a> downgraded the rating for Super Micro Computer from Neutral to Sell, while reducing the price target from $40 to $32.
The Super Micro Computer Thesis: Recognizing the large market opportunity in AI servers, competitors have made significant R&amp;D investments, which could pressure the company's market share leadership in the segment, Ng said in the downgrade note.
Check out <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings">other analyst stock ratings</a>.
&#8220;Super Micro Computer's gross margins are likely to contract in 2025 through 2027 due to intensifying competition and the AI compute transition from Hopper to Blackwell,&#8221; the analyst stated.
&#8220;The company not only has high levels of customer concentration but also high supplier concentration, which "puts it into a price-taking position," he added.
Super Micro Computer's stock still trades at a premium to its server OEM peers, which is likely to converge due to the "lack of differentiation in AI server product" and risks associated with high customer and supplier concentration.
SMCI Price Action: At the time of publication on Monday, shares of Super Micro Computer had declined by 1.83% to $41.38.

What the Options Market Tells Us About Super Micro Computer

Malaysia plans to strengthen semiconductor regulations following U.S. demands to monitor the movement of high-end NVIDIA Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) chips amid suspicions they&#8217;re being illicitly diverted to China, violating U.S. export controls.
What Happened: Malaysian Trade Minister Zafrul Aziz <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/d0267fb8-36b2-41dc-9c0c-d493976812c7">told</a> the Financial Times he&#8217;s formed a task force with the digital minister to tighten regulations around the country&#8217;s growing data center industry, which heavily relies on Nvidia&#8217;s powerful graphics processing units.
&#8220;[The U.S. is] asking us to make sure that we monitor every shipment that comes to Malaysia when it involves Nvidia chips,&#8221; Aziz said. &#8220;They want us to make sure that servers end up in the data centers that they&#8217;re supposed to and not suddenly move to another ship.&#8221;
The crackdown follows Singapore&#8217;s <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/25/03/44076579/singapore-investigates-potential-fraud-in-nvidia-ai-chip-shipments-the-question-is-whether-malaysia-was-a-final-destination">recent arrest of nine people</a>, with three charged in a $390 million fraud case involving the suspected sale of Nvidia chips to China via Malaysia. Prosecutors identified Dell Technologies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DELL#NYSE">DELL</a>) and Super Micro Computer Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMCI#NASDAQ">SMCI</a>) <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/25/03/44076579/singapore-investigates-potential-fraud-in-nvidia-ai-chip-shipments-the-question-is-whether-malaysia-was-a-final-destination">servers in the fraudulent sales</a>.

Why It Matters: Malaysia has become one of the fastest-growing data center markets, with over $25 billion invested by companies including Nvidia, Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>), and ByteDance in the southern state of Johor over the past 18 months.
The U.S. implemented export controls in late 2024 creating a three-tier licensing system for AI chips, specifically targeting Nvidia&#8217;s powerful GPUs. The restrictions aim to prevent Chinese companies from accessing these chips through third countries for <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/02/44033587/nvidia-chips-smuggled-to-china-3-men-charged-in-singapore-amid-us-export-crackdown">potential military applications</a>.
Aziz acknowledged the complexity of tracking semiconductors through global supply chains. &#8220;Enforcement might sound easy, but it&#8217;s not,&#8221; he said, noting that the U.S. is pressuring companies throughout the supply chain to ensure compliance.

出来事：木曜日、マルティネス氏はゲームストップの株価の動きを公開した。株価のトレンド反転を予測するTDシーケンシャル指標がゲームストップの買いサインを示していることに着目している。株価はロビンフッドの夜間取引で1.37％上昇した。

2020年以来、ゲームストップはミーム株として主にレディットのようなプラットフォームで個人投資家に人気があり、株価の変動が大きい。2021年、レディットのr/WallStreetBetsコミュニティ内の個人投資家によるショート・スクイーズ（市場が空売りに傾いている時に大きく買い注文を仕掛ける）で、ゲームストップの株価が暴騰した。その結果、これに携わっていたヘッジファンドにとっては大きな打撃となった。基本的に買いが弱いとされるゲームストップの株についてのマルティネス氏の分析は、トレーダーたちが下落が続いた後の反発を期待していることを示している。
なぜ重要なのか：ゲームストップ株は最近、市場全体に対する懸念から圧力を受けている。米国における景気後退の不安、および関税や貿易政策に関する不確実性により週明けの株価は下落した。
先月上旬、トランプ大統領は、カナダ、メキシコ、中国からの輸入品に大幅な関税を課したが、これが不安定な市場を招いた。それでも、マルティネス氏の投稿では、株価反発の見込みを示しており、3月25日に控えている第4四半期決算発表を前に投資家に希望を与えている。
2月、ビットコインなどの暗号資産がゲームストップの貸借対照表に追加されたことで株価は急騰した。CEOのライアン・コーエン(Ryan Cohen)氏が、ストラテジー（NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSTR#NASDAQ">MSTR</a>）のマイケル・セイラー氏と会ったことも、株価急騰に拍車をかけた。特に、マルティネス氏は以前の投稿で、投資家に対してビットコインの74,000ドル水準について注意を促し、「トレンドの変化の可能性」について示していた。
株価の推移：昨日の終値は、30日前の水準から19％下落した21.95ドル（<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga Proのデータ</a>による）。
ゲームストップの株は、モメンタム（勢い）と成長においては スーパー・マイクロ・コンピューター（NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMCI#NASDAQ">SMCI</a>）を上回る一方で、バリュー指標では低い。

13日の米株市場のS&amp;P500は、トランプ米大統領の<a class="link rapid-noclick-resp" href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/donald-trump">関税政策</a>で新たな売り圧力が押し寄せ、10％の下落、一時は短期的な調整局面に入り急落した。
SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF トラスト（NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>）に追跡されるS&amp;P500は、5,521ポイントで終了し、2月19日の最近の高値6,147た2月19日ポイントから10％の下落。
この指数は現在、5,738の200日移動平均線の約3.8％下に位置しており、多くのトレーダーにとって重要な基準を示している。
S&amp;P 500銘柄のうち、この移動平均線の上にあるのは37％のみで、これは2023年11月以来の最低水準であり、市場全体の弱さを示す兆候だ。
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">貿易摩擦、株式市場に動揺</h3>
EUが米国のウイスキーに50％の関税を課すことを決定したことに対し、トランプ大統領はトゥルース・ソーシャル(Truth Social)プラットフォームでEUのアルコール製品に200％の関税を課すと投稿した。
今週初め、カナダは200億ドル以上の米国製品に対し報復関税として25％を発表し、EUでは4月から報復関税を課す予定だ。
関税騒動にもかかわらず、最近のインフレデータは米国経済のより楽観的な姿を描いている。 米国の消費者物価指数(CPI)と生産者物価指数(PPI)は、今年の期待値を下回る結果となり、これにより連邦準備制度理事会（FRB）のディスインフレーション政策が実を結ぶことを期待する声が高まっている。 市場は、今年3回のFRBの利上げを織り込んでいる。
それでも、市場では貿易政策リスクに焦点が当てられている。 トランプ大統領の関税政策の脅威により、企業減益、供給チェーンの混乱、インフレ圧力が再び高まるといった懸念が投資家の間で指摘されている。 これにより、FRBは利下げ軌道の見直しを迫られる可能性がある。

S&P500が貿易戦争の懸念に揺れる中、調整局面入り

今年の株式市場は、インフレーション圧力の緩和、企業の強い利益、およびAI（人工知能）技術の潜在的な利益に対する楽観的な期待を受けて、<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/06/39546658/federal-reserve-to-follow-european-banks-footsteps-likely-to-cut-rates-in-septemb">連邦準備制度が9月に金利を引き下げるとの期待</a>が高まっています。
利益の根拠 今年の上半期、より広範な市場パフォーマンスを示すものとして利用されるS&amp;P500指数は、これまでで約14.48％もの利益を上げており、第2四半期には約3.92％増となっています。この指数は6月18日に最後の収盤高値（5,487.03）を記録し、6月20日には一時的に5,500を超えました。以降、この指数は市場全体の利益が推移しているように動いています。
SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF トラスト（NYSE：<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>）は、S&amp;P 500指数のパフォーマンスを追跡する上場投資信託（ETF）で、金曜日の取引日のセッションで株価は0.39％低い544.22ドルで終了しました。これはBenzinga Proのデータによるものです。
アナリストたちは、上半期の後半でもさらなる利益の増加について楽観的です。S&amp;P 500指数の記録的な利益を受け、多くのアナリストは年末の目標を引き上げています。Evercore ISIのデータによると、同社は6,000でこの指数が年を終えると予測しています。
トップヘビーが心配？ 堅調に推移している一方で、選ばれた数銘柄に利益が集中する構図について、投資家とアナリストの両者から懸念の声が上がっています。これは、指数構成銘柄の重量付けを均等に行っているS&amp;P EQUAL WEIGHT INDEXが、市場時価総額に基づくS&amp;P 500指数に対して相対的に低いパフォーマンスを示していることから明らかです。

S＆P 500の上位10銘柄の市場全体の時価総額に占める割合は38％まで高騰し、チャールズ・シュワブ（<a href="https://www.schwab.com/learn/story/hard-to-concentrate-top-heavy-market">同社が</a>最近発表した報告書によると）となっています。Ark InvestのCathie Wood氏は最近のウェビナーの中で、株式市場の集中度が1932年の大恐慌時代以上に高まっていると述べています。

2四半期には、NVIDIAとテキサス州に本社を置くユーティリティーカンパニーであるVistraも上位5銘柄のうちに入っています。リストの中で他にも、First Solar, Inc.（NASDAQ：<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FSLR#NASDAQ">FSLR</a>）、GE Vernova Inc.（NYSE：<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GEV#NYSE">GEV</a>）（GEから分離されたユーティリティーカンパニー）、半導体テスト企業Teradyne, Inc.（NASDAQ：<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TER#NASDAQ">TER</a>）も含まれています。
2四半期の銘柄の下落率トップ5には、今年の累計での株価の下落率がトップ5に入っている銘柄がリストアップされています。その他の3銘柄は、Estée Lauder Companies Inc.（NASDAQ：<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EL#NASDAQ">EL</a>）および建設機器メーカーのBuilders FirstSource, Inc.（NYSE：<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BLDR#NYSE">BLDR</a>）です。
上位5銘柄のうち、9割がテックとユーティリティーセクターに属していたのに対し、下位5銘柄のうち8割が消費関連銘柄でした。
今後の見通し モルガン・スタンレーのアナリストたちは、今年の下半期に向けて大部分が楽観的な見通しを示しています。同社のアナリストが述べるところによると、9月に実現する金融政策金利の引き下げを前提として、米国株式市場には大きな利益の機会が訪れるとのことです。 先物市場では、9月の金利引き下げの確率は64％と評価されています。
JPMorganのアナリストたちも、引き続き市場の好調な動きを見込んでいます。
同社のアナリストは声明の中で、「金融引き締めの終わりと強い名目GDP成長が、今年の残りの期間にわたって米国株式市場にとって好機を提供する」と述べています。
金融政策の引き下げは、株式市場の利益の拡大の前触れとして幅広く受け取られています。今年の前半でパフォーマンスが低迷していた銘柄は、インフレがさらに緩和された場合、22年来の最高値から金利を下げることができるようになると、大幅な利益を生む可能性があります。
Ark InvestのWood氏は、同社の強いリバウンドの余地を見ています。 大恐慌の時期には集中度がピークに達しましたが、その後市場は3～4年で62％上昇しました。 この利益は、メガキャップの大企業よりも、中小キャップの銘柄を不釣り合いに支持したものであったと、Wood氏は述べています。
利益が期待される銘柄 マクロ経済指標と地政学的環境が緩和されると、楽観的なリスク選好が再び市場に戻る可能性があります。スクリーニングのために使用された基準はSMIDキャップ銘柄、平均出来高が50,000以上、平均アナリストの株価予想が「Buy」以上、平均アナリストの株価予想が現在の価格より20％高い、および相対的な強度指数が40未満であることです。それらの銘柄の1つには以下が含まれます。
