Marvell Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ:MRVL) stock rose about 3% Friday as semiconductor stocks rebounded, with the Nasdaq up 0.53% and the Technology sector gaining 1.05%.
The recovery came after supply-chain concerns helped push Marvell down nearly 8% Thursday.
Supply Constraints Remain In Focus
Lam Research Corp. (NASDAQ:LRCX) warned that near-term supply constraints could push some December-quarter shipments into March.
Lam still reported a 40.2% operating margin and guided December-quarter revenue to $8.2 billion-$9.0 billion, compared with the $8.53 billion estimate.
The company also flagged cleanroom and supply limitations as constraints on how quickly the industry can add capacity.
Tech Strength Supports Friday Rebound
Friday's broader market remained mixed, with the S&P 500 down 0.15%, the Dow lower by 0.91% and the Russell 2000 down 0.20%.
Technology, however, ranked second among the 11 sectors, helping semiconductor names recover despite continued concerns around supply availability.
Analysts Remain Bullish
Marvell carries a Buy consensus rating with an average price forecast of $348.72.
UBS maintained Buy and raised its forecast to $350 on Oct. 7. Jefferies maintained Buy and lifted its forecast to $450, while JPMorgan maintained Overweight and raised its forecast to $360 on the same day.
