The <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/semiconductors">semiconductor sector</a> is bracing for a shakeup, and JPMorgan&#8217;s Harlan Sur isn't mincing words. "Expect in-line results but tariff/trade related dynamics to drive weaker 2Q/2H25 and negative earnings revision cycle." That's Wall Street-speak for buckle up &#8211; it's about to get bumpy.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Tariff Troubles: A 15-25% EPS Trim Ahead?</h2>
As first-quarter earnings begin to roll in, Sur says the Street should prepare for a "kick off negative earnings revision cycle," with forward EPS estimates potentially being slashed by 15-25% over the next few quarters. Investors hoping that semi stocks had already hit bottom after a ~25% tariff-driven slump may be in for another jolt &#8211; Sur sees another 10-15% downside from here.
But this isn't just about numbers. The broader concern is about confidence, or lack thereof. "Rapidly changing tariff headlines are negatively impacting consumer and business confidence," Sur notes, with turn business — which can make up 20-30% of guidance &#8211; now at risk due to reduced visibility. Add in China's latest tariff volley against U.S.-fabricated chips, and names like Intel Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>), Texas Instruments Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TXN#NASDAQ">TXN</a>), Qorvo Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QRVO#NASDAQ">QRVO</a>), and Skyworks Solutions Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SWKS#NASDAQ">SWKS</a>) suddenly look exposed.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">AI And Datacenter: The Only Bright Spots</h2>
That said, JPMorgan isn't throwing out the entire chip basket. Sur urges a "selective" approach, spotlighting Broadcom Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AVGO#NASDAQ">AVGO</a>), Marvell Technologies Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MRVL#NASDAQ">MRVL</a>) and Analog Devices Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ADI#NASDAQ">ADI</a>) as top picks &#8211; all tied closely to AI and data infrastructure. These are the companies best positioned to ride the "strong demand in accelerated compute/AI," even if GPU giants like Nvidia Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) and Advanced Micro Devices Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMD#NASDAQ">AMD</a>) face potential downside from tightening China restrictions and "upcoming AI diffusion rules."
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">EDA, Semicap: Downturn-Proof Darlings</h2>
In the tools-of-the-trade corner, KLA Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KLAC#NASDAQ">KLAC</a>) and Synopsys Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SNPS#NASDAQ">SNPS</a>) also earn JPM's stamp of approval. EDA players like Synopsys are seen as resilient. "R&amp;D budgets don't get cut in downturns," Sur says, a mantra every long-term investor in chip design software should pin to their monitors.
Meanwhile, the "flat-to-down" outlook for WFE (wafer fab equipment) in 2025 spells more caution for semicap names, though JPMorgan still favors Applied Materials Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMAT#NASDAQ">AMAT</a>), KLA Corp, and Lam Research Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LRCX#NASDAQ">LRCX</a>) &#8211; all expected to outperform thanks to "rising capital intensity" and growing service revenue.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Down-Cycle Playbook Moment Is Here</h2>
The macro backdrop remains fraught. JPM economists now peg the chance of a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/04/44645681/jpmorgan-raises-recession-risk-to-60-as-largest-us-tax-hike-in-60-years-hits-global-economy">U.S. recession at 60%</a>, as the tariff storm clouds hang heavy. Demand pull-forward in smartphones might make the first quarter look fine, but "incremental conservatism" is expected to dominate the second quarter and H2 guidance.
Bottom line? 
This is a "down-cycle playbook" moment. The sector's long-term structural story — AI, content tailwinds, and rising chip complexity — remains intact. But for now, it's all about threading the needle between "inevitable slowdown" and the pockets of AI-driven strength.
And as Sur says, "remain selective on stocks."

Shares of semiconductor stocks are trading lower as stocks pull back after surging Wednesday following President Trump's tariff pause announcement.

Shares of chip stocks are trading higher following President Trump's decision to implement a 90-day pause on reciprocal tariffs for all countries except China.

Wall Street saw a tentative tech rebound early Wednesday, as investors begin to shrug off escalating U.S.-China trade tensions following <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets">a steep market selloff.</a>
After the Trump administration announced a dramatic hike in tariffs on Chinese goods to 104% starting Wednesday, Beijing retaliated with an 84% tariff on American products. U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent defended the aggressive trade stance, claiming the impact would ultimately backfire on China.
President Donald Trump took to Truth Social, writing, &#8220;BE COOL! Everything is going to work out well. The USA will be bigger and better than ever before!&#8221; 
He encouraged investors by stating, &#8220;this is a great time to buy, DJT,&#8221; likely referring to Trump Media &amp; Technology Group Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DJT#NASDAQ">DJT</a>), rather than the Dow Jones Transportation Index, which has dropped 18% since the tariff news broke.
Yet, broader risk sentiment remains subdued, with investors awaiting either a softer tone from the White House or a signal from the Federal Reserve—though both hopes appear to be fading.
By mid-morning in New York, tech stocks staged a rebound, lifting the Nasdaq 100 by 0.9%. Yet, the S&amp;P 500 and Dow Jones Industrial Average remained flat, while the Russell 2000 continued to underperform.
Meanwhile, U.S. Treasuries were failing to provide their traditional safe-haven support amid heightened uncertainty and volatility.
The 10-year Treasury yield surged 10 basis points to 4.40%, triggering a sharp selloff in medium- and long-dated bonds. The popular iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TLT#NASDAQ">TLT</a>) dropped 1.8%, extending its three-day slide to 6.6%—its worst performance since March 2020.
Gold prices, on the other hand, soared over 3% to $3,075 per ounce, on track for their strongest daily gain since October 2023.
Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) also advanced, rising 1.4% to $77,289.

Wall Street's Most Accurate Analysts Spotlight On 3 Tech Stocks Delivering High-Dividend Yields

In the current market session, Skyworks Solutions Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SWKS#NASDAQ">SWKS</a>) price is at $53.60, after a 1.55% increase. However, over the past month, the stock fell by 21.76%, and in the past year, by 50.07%. Shareholders might be interested in knowing whether the stock is undervalued, even if the company is performing up to par in the current session. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1744063248_0.png" alt="Past Year Chart" />

<h3>Skyworks Solutions P/E Compared to Competitors</h3>
The P/E ratio is used by long-term shareholders to assess the company's market performance against aggregate market data, historical earnings, and the industry at large. A lower P/E could indicate that shareholders do not expect the stock to perform better in the future or it could mean that the company is undervalued. 
Compared to the aggregate P/E ratio of the 99.72 in the Semiconductors &amp; Semiconductor Equipment industry, Skyworks Solutions Inc. has a lower P/E ratio of 16.24. Shareholders might be inclined to think that the stock might perform worse than it's industry peers. It's also possible that the stock is undervalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1744063248_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In summary, while the price-to-earnings ratio is a valuable tool for investors to evaluate a company's market performance, it should be used with caution. A low P/E ratio can be an indication of undervaluation, but it can also suggest weak growth prospects or financial instability. Moreover, the P/E ratio is just one of many metrics that investors should consider when making investment decisions, and it should be evaluated alongside other financial ratios, industry trends, and qualitative factors. By taking a comprehensive approach to analyzing a company's financial health, investors can make well-informed decisions that are more likely to lead to successful outcomes.

Intraday Update

A Look Into Skyworks Solutions Inc's Price Over Earnings

Companies with a long history of paying dividends and consistently hiking them remain appealing to income-focused investors. Fidelity National Financial, VICI Properties, and Skyworks Solutions have rewarded shareholders for years and recently announced dividend increases. These companies currently offer dividend yields of around 3% to 5%.
Fidelity National Financial
Fidelity National Financial (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FNF#NYSE">FNF</a>) provides various insurance products in the U.S. It offers title insurance, escrow and other title-related services, including trust activities, trustee sales guarantees, recordings and reconveyances and home warranty products.

</ul>
Fidelity National Financial has increased its dividends consecutively for the last 13 years. In its most recent dividend hike announcement on Nov. 7, the company's board raised the quarterly payout by 4% to $0.50 per common share, equal to an annual figure of $2 per share. The current yield on the stock stands at 3.07%.

Why Fidelity National Financial, VICI Properties, And Skyworks Solutions Are Winners For Passive Income

Skyworks Solutions's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SWKS#NYSE">SWKS</a>) short percent of float has risen 10.64% since its last report.

<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

Wall Street's Most Accurate Analysts Weigh In On 3 Tech Stocks With Over 4% Dividend Yields

FORM

Shares of semiconductor stocks are trading lower. The sector has been under pressure amid tariff uncertainty.

Trading in shares of Skyworks Solutions, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SWKS#NASDAQ">SWKS</a>) is quiet Monday. This follows Friday's move higher of 8.5%. There is a good chance the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/02/43976065/why-polaris-merck-and-skyworks-solutions-are-winners-for-passive-income">stock continues to rally</a>.
The shares are moving into a ‘gap'. This could be bullish. It's why Skyworks is our <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/stock-of-the-day">Stock of the Day</a>.
In a financial market, resistance is a price level or narrow zone where there is a large amount of sell interest.
If a stock is trending higher it's because there aren't enough sell orders to fill all of the buy orders. Investors and traders who wish to purchase shares are forced to pay premiums and outbid each other. This forces the stock into an uptrend.
When it reaches resistance, the dynamic changes. There are enough sell orders to fill all of the buy orders. This makes the uptrend end or pause.
One of the main reasons why resistance forms is buyer's remorse. This happens when people regret buying if the price drops after. Some vow to get out if they can eventually do so at breakeven.

So, if the stock rallies back to the price they paid, they place sell orders. This is why the $95.00 level for Skyworks converted from support into resistance.
Many who purchased shares around the support level came to regret doing so when the support broke in late October. When the stock rallied back to $95 in January they sold. The large concentration of this selling created resistance at a former support level.
As you can see on the chart below, the stock gapped down in early February. This means it closed at one price, and opened the next day at a price that was significantly lower. This shows up as a blank space or a ‘gap' on a chart.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="527" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/10110705/122-1024x527.png" alt="" class="wp-image-816984" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/10110705/122-1024x527.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/10110705/122-300x154.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/10110705/122-768x395.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/10110705/122-1536x791.png 1536w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/10110705/122.png 1581w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
Because there was no trading in between these prices, no one bought shares. This means that now that Skyworks is moving into the price levels it gapped through going in the opposite direction, there may not be a lot of sell interest.
Buyers may be forced to be aggressive and push the price higher to draw in sellers. This could result in a rapid move upwards. It could ‘refill' the gap.

Stock Of The Day: Will Skyworks Refill The Gap And Head Higher?

Shares of semiconductor stocks are trading higher following strong guidance from Broadcom.

Shares of chip stocks are trading higher, rebounding after falling this week in sympathy with NVIDIA.

On Monday, Apple Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/artificial-intelligence" rel="noreferrer noopener">committed over $500 billion</a> in investment in the U.S. over the next four years to support initiatives including artificial intelligence silicon engineering.
CEO Tim Cook noted that Apple is doubling its advanced manufacturing fund to build advanced technology in Texas.
The $500 billion commitment includes Apple Intelligence infrastructure, data centers, and Apple TV+ productions.

In the next four years, Apple plans to hire around 20,000 people, most of whom will focus on R&amp;D, silicon engineering, software development, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.apple.com/newsroom/2025/02/apple-will-spend-more-than-500-billion-usd-in-the-us-over-the-next-four-years/" rel="noreferrer noopener">AI, and machine learning</a>.
Apple is doubling its U.S. advanced manufacturing fund from $5 billion to $10 billion. The fund&#8217;s expansion includes a multibillion-dollar commitment from Apple to produce advanced silicon in Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co&#8217;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSM#NYSE">TSM</a>) Fab 21 facility in Arizona.
Apple is the largest customer at this facility, employing over 2,000 workers. Mass production of Apple chips began in January.
Apple&#8217;s investments in the sector help create thousands of jobs across the country at U.S. companies like Broadcom Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AVGO#NASDAQ">AVGO</a>), Texas Instruments Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TXN#NASDAQ">TXN</a>), Skyworks Solutions Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SWKS#NASDAQ">SWKS</a>), and Qorvo Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QRVO#NASDAQ">QRVO</a>).
Apple and its partners will launch a new advanced manufacturing facility in Houston to produce servers that support Apple Intelligence.
Apple will also double its U.S. advanced manufacturing fund, create an academy in Michigan to train the next generation of U.S. manufacturers and grow its research and development investments in the U.S.
Apple will work with manufacturing partners to begin production of servers in Houston later this year. A 250,000-square-foot server manufacturing facility, likely to open in 2026, will create thousands of jobs.
Previously manufactured outside the U.S., the servers that will soon be assembled in Houston play a key role in powering Apple Intelligence and are the foundation of private cloud computing for AI cloud computing.
As Apple brings Apple Intelligence to customers across the U.S., it plans to expand its data center capacity in North Carolina, Iowa, Oregon, Arizona, and Nevada.
Apple&#8217;s <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43727973/taiwan-semiconductor-eyes-us-expansion-amid-taiwans-push-for-bigger-investments-and-advanced-chip-production" rel="noreferrer noopener">move coincides with</a> President Donald Trump&#8217;s urgency to consolidate the U.S.&#8217;s domestic semiconductor manufacturing position, prompting chipmakers like Taiwan Semiconductor to ramp up production there.

Insights From Analysts
Sonu Varghese, VP global Macro Strategist at Carson Global, allayed concerns that the U.S. government jobs cut undertaken by Tesla Inc. CEO Elon Musk-led Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) will hamper the labor market.
"Irrespective of what happens, or does not happen, the turnover in federal government payrolls is going to be tiny compared to what's happening in the overall labor market," he said.
He added that even if the Trump administration laid off everyone except those in Veteran Affairs and crucial defense-related areas, the churn would still be 1.2 million workers – less than an average of 3.4 million workers who quit jobs every month during the fourth quarter.
