In Brief
Marvell Technology experienced a significant surge in its shares, soaring by 28%.
The company’s performance was influenced by the booming AI industry, similar to the rally witnessed by Nvidia Corp.
Chipmaker Marvell Technology experienced a significant surge in its stock price, reaching a 28% increase in a single day. This surge, the largest since October 2001, was primarily driven by Marvell’s optimistic outlook on the revenue generated from AI in the current year.

Marvell’s stock peaked at $63.42 in New York on Friday, resulting in a year-to-date increase of over 70%. According to Bloomberg, Marvell Technology expects AI-related product sales to double this fiscal year, capitalizing on a spending boom similar to Nvidia Corp. The company’s first-quarter adjusted earnings also surpassed analysts’ estimates. Moreover, Marvell expects this quarter’s revenue to be around $1.33 billion, in line with analysts’ predictions. Reuters wrote that Marvell’s gains were poised to increase the company’s market value by almost $10 billion.
“Generative AI is rapidly driving new applications and changing the investment priorities for our cloud customers,”
said Marvell CEO Matt Murphy.
