The stock gave up 5.56 percentage points relative to the benchmark. The week played out as a climb-and-fade: Monday drifted lower to $41.89, Wednesday spiked to an intraday high of $44.50, and the final two sessions sold off, with Thursday touching $38.685 before Friday settled at $39.30. Daily volume averaged 4.47m shares, about 16.39% above the recent median, pointing to heavier two-way action. ## Key Events The week’s news flow centred on advanced packaging and AI-related deals. On Wednesday, Amkor and NVIDIA announced a strategic partnership to advance AI infrastructure, followed by reports that Amkor secured a $1.3 billion order from NVIDIA to expand AI packaging capacity, with the Korean packaging buildout as the backdrop. Earlier in the week, the market was already focused on how Chiplet innovation is intensifying the advanced packaging race and pushing test capacity to record levels, while coverage of the $12 billion Arizona site highlighted policy angles. Shares jumped intraday on Wednesday alongside the NVIDIA news and closed at $43.73, the week’s best finish. They then faded on Thursday and gave back much of the news-driven gain. At the sector level, a SpaceX-linked rebound lifted chip names for a session, but Amkor failed to sustain that strength. ## Analyst Ratings Among the 11 institutions covering the stock, 5 rate it buy, 2 rate it overweight, and 4 rate it hold, with no underweight or sell ratings. The consensus rating is buy, and the consensus target price is $74.50, about 89.57% above the current level. Target prices span from $46.00 to $92.00, suggesting wide disagreement, though even the low end sits well above spot. Within the semiconductor materials and equipment industry, Amkor ranks 12th out of 32 companies by analyst rating. ## The Week Ahead Amkor reports fiscal 2026 third-quarter results after the market close next Monday, with estimates at $0.7903 in EPS and $2.04 billion in revenue. That print will test whether the AI packaging narrative behind this week’s headlines shows up in the numbers. The same day brings the Dallas Fed manufacturing business activity index. Tuesday is heavy on macro releases: durable goods orders, FHFA house prices, the S&P Case-Shiller 20-city home price index, new home sales, the Richmond Fed composite index, and consumer confidence, with durable goods orders forecast at 1.5 and consumer confidence at 81. ## In Short Amkor rallied on the NVIDIA partnership and the $1.3 billion order, yet still closed the week lower. The consensus rating stays at buy and the consensus target price sits nearly 90% above spot, while the stock has broken below its 20-day moving average. Latest-session flow shows large-lot money as a net buyer while small-lot money turns net seller, leaving direction mixed. The next checkpoint is whether next week’s earnings can back the AI packaging expectations and whether the stock stabilises near the bottom of its recent range. *This article is generated by LongbridgeAI from market data, for information only and not investment advice.* ### Related Stocks - [AMKR.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/AMKR.US.md) - [AMKL.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/AMKL.US.md) ## Related News & Research - [These Analysts Slash Their Forecasts On Amkor Technology After Q3 Results](https://longbridge.com/en/news/303242587.md) - [Amkor (NASDAQ:AMKR) misses Q3 analysts’ revenue estimates](https://longbridge.com/en/news/303129828.md) - [Amkor (AMKR) reports Q3: everything you need to know ahead of earnings](https://longbridge.com/en/news/302976046.md) - [Amkor Technology (AMKR) Expands Arizona Campus Following Demand as Undervalued View Holds](https://longbridge.com/en/news/299534065.md) - [ISTE Wins KRW 1.64 Billion Equipment Supply Contract With Amkor Technology Korea](https://longbridge.com/en/news/301908756.md) --- > **Disclaimer: This article is for reference only and does not constitute any investment advice.**
