<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Synopsys has grown since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to fall in the near-term but traders should be aware that more shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing Synopsys's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Synopsys's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 3.18%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>

How Is The Market Feeling About Synopsys?

The <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/semiconductors">semiconductor sector</a> is bracing for a shakeup, and JPMorgan&#8217;s Harlan Sur isn't mincing words. "Expect in-line results but tariff/trade related dynamics to drive weaker 2Q/2H25 and negative earnings revision cycle." That's Wall Street-speak for buckle up &#8211; it's about to get bumpy.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Tariff Troubles: A 15-25% EPS Trim Ahead?</h2>
As first-quarter earnings begin to roll in, Sur says the Street should prepare for a "kick off negative earnings revision cycle," with forward EPS estimates potentially being slashed by 15-25% over the next few quarters. Investors hoping that semi stocks had already hit bottom after a ~25% tariff-driven slump may be in for another jolt &#8211; Sur sees another 10-15% downside from here.
But this isn't just about numbers. The broader concern is about confidence, or lack thereof. "Rapidly changing tariff headlines are negatively impacting consumer and business confidence," Sur notes, with turn business — which can make up 20-30% of guidance &#8211; now at risk due to reduced visibility. Add in China's latest tariff volley against U.S.-fabricated chips, and names like Intel Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>), Texas Instruments Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TXN#NASDAQ">TXN</a>), Qorvo Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QRVO#NASDAQ">QRVO</a>), and Skyworks Solutions Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SWKS#NASDAQ">SWKS</a>) suddenly look exposed.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">AI And Datacenter: The Only Bright Spots</h2>
That said, JPMorgan isn't throwing out the entire chip basket. Sur urges a "selective" approach, spotlighting Broadcom Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AVGO#NASDAQ">AVGO</a>), Marvell Technologies Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MRVL#NASDAQ">MRVL</a>) and Analog Devices Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ADI#NASDAQ">ADI</a>) as top picks &#8211; all tied closely to AI and data infrastructure. These are the companies best positioned to ride the "strong demand in accelerated compute/AI," even if GPU giants like Nvidia Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) and Advanced Micro Devices Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMD#NASDAQ">AMD</a>) face potential downside from tightening China restrictions and "upcoming AI diffusion rules."
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">EDA, Semicap: Downturn-Proof Darlings</h2>
In the tools-of-the-trade corner, KLA Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KLAC#NASDAQ">KLAC</a>) and Synopsys Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SNPS#NASDAQ">SNPS</a>) also earn JPM's stamp of approval. EDA players like Synopsys are seen as resilient. "R&amp;D budgets don't get cut in downturns," Sur says, a mantra every long-term investor in chip design software should pin to their monitors.
Meanwhile, the "flat-to-down" outlook for WFE (wafer fab equipment) in 2025 spells more caution for semicap names, though JPMorgan still favors Applied Materials Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMAT#NASDAQ">AMAT</a>), KLA Corp, and Lam Research Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LRCX#NASDAQ">LRCX</a>) &#8211; all expected to outperform thanks to "rising capital intensity" and growing service revenue.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Down-Cycle Playbook Moment Is Here</h2>
The macro backdrop remains fraught. JPM economists now peg the chance of a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/04/44645681/jpmorgan-raises-recession-risk-to-60-as-largest-us-tax-hike-in-60-years-hits-global-economy">U.S. recession at 60%</a>, as the tariff storm clouds hang heavy. Demand pull-forward in smartphones might make the first quarter look fine, but "incremental conservatism" is expected to dominate the second quarter and H2 guidance.
Bottom line? 
This is a "down-cycle playbook" moment. The sector's long-term structural story — AI, content tailwinds, and rising chip complexity — remains intact. But for now, it's all about threading the needle between "inevitable slowdown" and the pockets of AI-driven strength.
And as Sur says, "remain selective on stocks."

Broadcom, Marvell, Synopsys: The Chips That Might Not Crumble In The Coming Storm

The first-quarter <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/semiconductors" rel="noreferrer noopener">semiconductor earnings parade</a> kicks off with ASML Holding (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ASML#NASDAQ">ASML</a>) <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44832382/nvidia-supplier-asml-beats-revenue-and-eps-estimates-euv-product-mix-performance-milestones-drive-q1-says-ceo" rel="noreferrer noopener">on Wednesday</a> and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSM#NYSE">TSM</a>) on Thursday, followed by the U.S. semi and semicap peers in the following week.
For U.S. chip vendors, BofA Securities analysts Vivek Arya and Duksan Jang expect first-quarter results to beat as their original outlook was likely conservative and tariff-related pull-ins created a better demand environment.
However, the second-quarter outlook could be in line as companies could widen the guidance range.

Regarding tariff impact, Arya and Jang expect U.S. chip companies to follow the example of early reporting companies Taiwan Semiconductor, ASML, Texas Instruments Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TXN#NASDAQ">TXN</a>), and Lam Research Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LRCX#NASDAQ">LRCX</a>).
The analysts generically express concern on second-half demand headwinds and quantified gross margin headwinds from inflationary supply chain movements (such as Nvidia Corp (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/nvda#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) and Advanced Micro Devices, Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMD#NASDAQ">AMD</a>)) and higher U.S. sourcing.
Overall, semi-industry overhangs could persist pending clarity on new sectoral tariff rates (next several weeks), China retaliation, U.S. reciprocal tariffs, and AI diffusion rules (May 15).
On the positive side, despite some downside to estimates, valuation has become more compelling for high-quality areas in cloud/AI (Nvidia, Broadcom Inc (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/avgo#NASDAQ">AVGO</a>)), design software (Cadence Design Systems, Inc (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/cdns#NASDAQ">CDNS</a>), Synopsys, Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SNPS#NASDAQ">SNPS</a>)) and semicap (Lam Research, KLA Corp (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/klac#NASDAQ">KLAC</a>)).
The analysts laid down two potential scenarios, which are modest tariff impact and dire tariff impact. Their modest scenario aligns with limited China and reciprocal tariffs, while the dire scenario implies the implementation of specific sectoral tariffs on semis/electronics (tariff rates not yet announced).
In a modest scenario, tariffs could drive roughly ~4% hit to calendar 2025 sales and ~6% hit to calendar 2026 versus current consensus, with EPS declines mostly ranging between 5%-25% (12%-13% average) inclusive of 150bps gross margin hit.
In a dire scenario, estimates could be further pushed down, with a 9% and 12% sales decline in calendar 2025 and 2026 and EPS declines mostly ranging between 15%-50% (25%-30% average) inclusive of a 500bps gross margin hit.
For revenue impact, the analysts noted companies with AI/cloud/industrial exposures to fare better in a potential tariff-induced demand downturn.
At the same time, those with consumer/auto are at greater risk. Nvidia, Lam Research, Cadence Design Systems, Synopsys, and Applied Materials, Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMAT#NASDAQ">AMAT</a>) are among the companies with the least potential sales impact (at -1% to -6% sales impact), while Arm Holdings (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARM#NASDAQ">ARM</a>), Intel Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>), NXP Semiconductors (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NXPI#NASDAQ">NXPI</a>), ON Semiconductor Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ON#NASDAQ">ON</a>) could fare worse (at -7% to -9% impact).
Importantly, even under the above distressed EPS scenario (dire tariffs), Nvidia, Micron Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MU#NASDAQ">MU</a>), Synopsys, and Marvell Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MRVL#NASDAQ">MRVL</a>) have a 30%+ potential upside to historical P/E or PEG multiple at current stock price.
In a modest tariff scenario, the EPS hits of 12%-13% (2-2.5 times sales) are well below the 30%-40% reductions the analysts have seen in prior market downturns. However, the primary concern is PE multiple compression due to enhanced market risks.
The SOX index is currently trading at ~18 times forward PE, below the broader SPX at ~20 times, though above the 12-14 times PE at prior semi-industry downturns. Notably, the SOX index has more than given up the ~20% PE premium it gained during AI-fueled stock gains in calendar 2023 and 2024.

<h2>Understanding the Relevance of Analyst Ratings</h2>
Benzinga tracks 150 analyst firms and reports on their stock expectations. Analysts typically arrive at their conclusions by predicting how much money a company will make in the future, usually the upcoming five years, and how risky or predictable that company's revenue streams are.
Analysts attend company conference calls and meetings, research company financial statements, and communicate with insiders to publish their ratings on stocks. Analysts typically rate each stock once per quarter or whenever the company has a major update.
Analysts may supplement their ratings with predictions for metrics like growth estimates, earnings, and revenue, offering investors a more comprehensive outlook. However, investors should be mindful that analysts, like any human, can have subjective perspectives influencing their forecasts.

A $500 billion commitment by Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) to build artificial intelligence supercomputers exclusively in the U.S. is drawing attention from Washington to Wall Street <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/econ-s">as reshoring trends accelerate.</a>
In a Tuesday post on Truth Social, President Donald Trump announced the move and said Nvidia will receive expedited permits for its ambitious U.S.-based AI infrastructure investment, calling it a "very big and exciting news."
The announcement comes amid a broader push from the Trump administration to accelerate domestic technology manufacturing and reduce reliance on China. Trump also pledged to expedite all necessary permits for other companies investing in what he dubbed the "Golden Age of America."
Over the weekend, the administration confirmed exemptions to new tariffs of up to 145% on critical tech imports such as smartphones and semiconductors—moves aimed at shielding U.S. tech leaders from global trade friction.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Bank of America Sees Earnings Tailwinds From Reshoring</h3>
In a note shared Monday, Bank of America semiconductor analyst Vivek Arya said earnings expectations for U.S.-based companies benefiting from reshoring remain on solid footing. 
"We expect earnings estimates from companies exposed to reshoring beneficiaries to remain well positioned to largely deliver on earnings expectations," Arya said.
Nvidia, in particular, was highlighted as a top sector pick alongside Broadcom Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AVGO#NASDAQ">AVGO</a>), Marvell Technology Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MRVL#NASDAQ">MRVL</a>), chip-design leaders Cadence Design Systems Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CDNS#NASDAQ">CDNS</a>) and Synopsys Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SNPS#NASDAQ">SNPS</a>) as well as semiconductor capital equipment makers Lam Research Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LRCX#NASDAQ">LRCX</a>) and KLA Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KLAC#NASDAQ">KLAC</a>).
Bank of America holds a $200 price target on Nvidia, implying an 80% upside from its current $110 share price. The bank values the stock at 33 times expected calendar year 2026 earnings, excluding cash—within its historical 25x to 56x forward price-to-earnings range.
According to Arya, this valuation is justified given Nvidia's broader exposure to long-term secular trends, including artificial intelligence infrastructure, gaming cycle recovery and robust data center demand.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Market Reactions</h3>
NVIDIA shares edged up 0.2% in premarket trading Tuesday, following a 0.2% dip on Monday. The stock has surged 28% since last week's lows, which were triggered by renewed tariff fears.
Top premarket risers within the iShares Semiconductor ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SOXX#NASDAQ">SOXX</a>) were KLA Corp., Onto Innovation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ONTO#NASDAQ">ONTO</a>) and ASML Holding N.V. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ASML#NASDAQ">ASML</a>) with gains of about 1%.

Trump Hypes $500 Billion NVIDIA Investment In US AI Supercomputers: 'Golden Age Of America' Begins

A temporary delay in new U.S. tariffs on tech imports from China sparked <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/semiconductors">a broad semiconductor rally</a>.
What Happened: The iShares Semiconductor ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SOXX#NASDAQ">SOXX</a>) jumped 2.5% by 9:40 a.m. ET Monday, extending its rally to 19% from last week's lows.
Monday&#8217;s top individual gainers within the SOXX ETF included:
<ul>
<li>Entegris Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ENTG#NASDAQ">ENTG</a>) surged 6.7% to $74.37</li>
<li>Intel Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>) rose 6.1% to $20.95</li>
<li>Micron Technology Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MU#NASDAQ">MU</a>) gained 5.8% to $73.56</li>
<li>Qorvo Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QRVO#NASDAQ">QRVO</a>) added 5.1% to $59.16</li>
<li>MKS Instruments Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MKSI#NASDAQ">MKSI</a>) climbed 4.2% to $68.25</li>
<li>Universal Display Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/OLED#NASDAQ">OLED</a>) rose 3.8% to $117.02</li>
<li>Texas Instruments Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TXN#NASDAQ">TXN</a>) advanced 3.7% to $153.01</li>
</ul>
In a research note published on Monday, Bank of America analyst Vivek Arya called the one-to-two-month delay on electronics tariffs &#8220;incrementally positive.&#8221; The delay, which allows industry debate before the White House finalizes so-called &#8220;sectoral&#8221; tariffs targeting semiconductors, was enough to trigger <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/chipmakers">sharp gains in chip stocks</a>.
Sentiment also improved following the U.S. Customs and Border Protection's decision Friday to exclude several electronic categories—such as smartphones and PCs—from immediate reciprocal tariffs.
"The delay is a net positive," Arya said, citing how electronics represent roughly 50% of global chip demand. 
"It allows for debate and discussion on this critical end-market,&#8221; he added. 
Arya noted that Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>), the world's largest semiconductor buyer, was also excluded from tariff pressure during Trump&#8217;s first term.
Arya reaffirmed a bullish stance on chipmakers with exposure to artificial intelligence and reshoring themes, including Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) and Broadcom Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AVGO#NASDAQ">AVGO</a>).
Cadence Design Systems Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CDNS#NASDAQ">CDNS</a>) and Synopsys Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SNPS#NASDAQ">SNPS</a>) remain his key preferences among chip-design software firms.
For semiconductor capital equipment—a group seen as direct beneficiaries of U.S. manufacturing—Arya highlighted Lam Research Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LRCX#NASDAQ">LRCX</a>) and KLA Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KLAC#NASDAQ">KLAC</a>).
The analyst also noted a potential tailwind from increased domestic production efforts. Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSM#NYSE">TSM</a>)&#8217;s $195 billion U.S. investments, Apple's $500 billion pledge and Nvidia's $200 billion U.S. expansion could all influence the shaping of final tariff rules.
"We expect over time for TSMC to front-end process most—if not all—semis required by its U.S. fabless customers within its Arizona fabs," Arya said, adding that a potential Intel-TSMC joint venture could further boost domestic chip output.

Why It Matters: Despite Monday's rally, Arya maintained a cautious view on chipmakers heavily exposed to consumer-facing segments like smartphones and PCs. 
After all, President Donald Trump clarified Sunday that electronics aren&#8217;t fully exempt. They will instead be folded into a separate sector-focused tariff plan to be announced in the coming months. 
Therefore, it&#8217;s unclear how sectoral tariffs will apply to U.S. electronics assembled in China using foreign-made chips.
"Semis remain a high beta sector and exposed to volatility," Arya said. However, he expects companies tied to AI and infrastructure to remain well-positioned to deliver on earnings expectations.
One risk Arya flagged is the upcoming May 15 compliance deadline for new U.S. rules governing the export of AI chips, which could limit shipments outside a small group of 19 &#8220;Tier 1&#8221; nations.
Still, with the delay in electronics tariffs offering space for negotiation, investors appear to be betting that the worst-case trade scenarios for U.S. chipmakers could be avoided, at least for now.

<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/semiconductors">Semiconductors may power</a> everything from Tesla Inc&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) cars to toothbrushes, but they can't outrun geopolitics.
With trade tensions heating up again, chip stocks have already taken a 25–30% hit, and JPMorgan analyst Harlan Sur says, &#8220;We see the potential for further ~10% downside (range of 5-15%) over the next six months.&#8221;
The good news? That may be the final flush before a rebound.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Tariffs Aren't The Problem &#8211; Demand Destruction Is</h2>
Despite investor jitters, Sur says the direct impact of tariffs on chipmakers is minimal. Most U.S.-designed chips are manufactured and tested abroad, not directly shipped into the U.S., shielding them from most tariff crossfire. Even China's retaliatory moves barely dent the sector directly.
Instead, the real problem lies in sticker shock. With end-products like smartphones and cars expected to rise 5–10% in price, consumers may start pulling back. A $300-more-expensive iPhone or a costlier EV could stall demand, ultimately hurting semiconductor sales.
Inventory caution from buyers only adds to the pressure.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">2018 Called &#8211; It Wants Its Trade War Back</h2>
Sur points to the 2018 U.S.-China tariff battle as a cautionary tale. Back then, chipmakers were riding high—until trade tensions slammed the brakes on the upcycle. Demand weakened, earnings were revised down and stocks nosedived by up to 35%. Memory stocks were hit the hardest, while software-centric names like Synopsys proved more defensive.
Sur sees echoes of that pattern in 2025: stocks are selling off ahead of earnings cuts, which could help clear the air for recovery. If history repeats, a three-to-five-month drawdown followed by a Fed-assisted rebound isn't out of the question.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Broadcom, Analog Devices, KLA, Synopsis: Selective Is The Safe Play</h2>
In this storm, Sur's sticking with what held up last time. He favors Broadcom Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AVGO#NASDAQ">AVGO</a>), Analog Devices Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ADI#NASDAQ">ADI</a>), KLA Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KLAC#NASDAQ">KLAC</a>) and Synopsys Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SNPS#NASDAQ">SNPS</a>) &#8211; stocks that blend strong fundamentals with exposure to AI, design software and increasing chip complexity.
These names outperformed during the 2018-2019 drawdown and are positioned to be more resilient this time around.
The bottom line? 
Semiconductor stocks may not be done falling, but with earnings resets coming soon, the worst might be behind us.
