On October 6, KLA Corporation fell 3.21% in regular trading, trading at $200.185/share, with turnover of $4.21 billion.
The decline followed Morgan Stanley's decision to lower its price target on KLA Corporation to $227 from $253, while maintaining an Overweight rating. The brokerage cited valuation adjustments as the primary driver of the target cut, although it noted that supply constraints are expected to ease and the company's leading-logic mix should become a tailwind. FactSet data showed an average analyst price target of $238.09, indicating cautious institutional sentiment on near-term upside.
Within the Semiconductor Equipment sector, ASML Holding NV fell 0.85%, Applied Materials lost 1.89%, Lam Research declined 2.78%, AXT Inc dropped 1.93%, and Teradyne fell 2.37%.
