Entegris IncImport prices rose more than expected and hawkish Fed expectations pressured the sector.
Shares of Entegris, Penguin Solutions, and Skyworks Solutions each fell 5.6% in afternoon trading as a broad semiconductor sell-off intensified. The decline followed a Bank of America fund manager survey showing 80% of respondents view semiconductors as the most crowded trade, the highest reading in the survey's history. Additional pressure came from May import prices rising 1.9% month-over-month, nearly double the 1.1% consensus, with an annual gain of 6.7%, the largest since August 2022. Markets also braced for Kevin Warsh's first meeting as Federal Reserve Chair, with some fund managers expecting a hawkish hold. Skyworks Solutions, which has had 19 moves greater than 5% over the past year, remains up 11.3% year-to-date at $71.64 per share but is still trading 14.1% below its 52-week high of $83.42 from May 2026.
