Infineon investors have already experienced strong fluctuations over the course of the year. On Monday, losses once again shape the picture at the semiconductor group.
• Infineon with a drop in the price despite the stable news situation
• Trump tariffs as a stress factor
• UBS confirms purchase recommendation
The Infineon share at Xetra trading at times lost 1.97 percent. At 33.60 euros, it is well above its 52-week high of 23.17 euros, the other end of the course curve, which is 39.43 euros and was marked in February, is also significantly out of reach.
No negative news
News from the company itself are in short supply at the start of the week, most recently the semiconductor manufacturer had spoken on Thursday and presented a new product family with radiation-resistant (Rad-Hhard) Gallium-Nitrid (GAN) transistors.
And the strong Nvidia numbers presented in the United States last week were also more spa drivers as a stress factor for the Infineon share.
There is currently no headwind from the analyst side – on the contrary: UBS left its classification for Infineon on “Buy” with a price target of 41 euros last week. Analyst Francois-Xavier Bouvignies, according to the current economic risks, indicate an upswing in the business with the automotive industry. Early indicators are an indication that the turning point lies this year. Against this background, he confirmed his positive attitude when it comes to analog chips. Infineon therefore remains one of the chip values he prefers.
Does the Trump effect burden again?
In view of the lack of stress factors, it should again be the Trump effect that puts the Infineon share under pressure on Monday. The uncertainty in connection with tariffs triggered by the US administration had reached a new escalation level at the weekend when Donald Trump threatened to double the steel tariffs. According to the German Industry Association of Stahl, the United States is the most important sales market for the European steel industry: around four million tons were exported to the USA in 2023 from the entire EU. From Germany alone, it is around one million tons every year, mostly special steel. Germany is therefore the largest steel producer in the EU.
Already on the stock exchanges in Asia, stocks of automotive and chip manufacturers suffered from the recent events, a picture that is now also also continued in German trade.
