The read, from its own figures
What its numbers say
- AMAT closes below its 50-day average ($455.43) while the 50-day is still above the 200-day ($444.82): a pullback inside a longer rise, not yet a downtrend.
- At $380.83, AMAT is 48.5% below its 1-year high of $739.67, set on June 30, 2026, and 87.2% above its 1-year low of $203.40 (November 14, 2025).
- Over the past month AMAT fell 29.5%, from $540.04 to $380.83.
- AMAT trades at 32.9x its last twelve months of earnings and 20.5x the next twelve months' estimate, so analysts expect earnings 60.1% higher.
- Its P/E is in line with the 34.2x median of the 3 other semiconductor equipment & materials companies we track (LRCX, KLAC, TER).
- AMAT's 30-day volatility, 52.9% a year, works out to a typical daily move of about 3.3%.
- Yahoo Finance puts its beta at 1.67: over five years of monthly returns, AMAT moved about 1.67% for each 1% move of the S&P 500.
What would change the read
- A close back above the 50-day average, $455.43 (+19.6%), restores the uptrend; the 50-day falling 2.3% under the 200-day at $444.82 would make it a downtrend.
- A close above $739.67 (+94.2%) would be a new 1-year high; below $203.40 (−46.6%), a new 1-year low.
How it is computed
- Prices are Yahoo Finance's daily candles for AMAT, the same ones the chart below draws; the P/E, forward P/E and beta are Yahoo Finance quote fields.
- The averages are simple means of the last 50 and 200 closes; the 1-year high and low are the highest high and lowest low of the last 252 sessions; the 30-day volatility is the standard deviation of the past month's daily returns, annualized with the square root of 252.
- Peers are the other companies Yahoo Finance files under semiconductor equipment & materials among the assets we track, not a full industry screen; the median counts those with a positive P/E.
- Every sentence here is written by code from those figures, refreshed daily; nobody edits it for AMAT by hand. It describes what the price and the multiples have done, not what they will do, and it is not advice.
