Thaai Casting IPO: Ahead of the listing, the shares were commanding a 103 percent premium in the grey market

Nvidia shares rallied more than 16 percent to close at a life-time high of $785.38 on February 22, adding about $277 billion to its market capitalisation and bringing its total market value near $2 trillion.

The addition eclipsed the $197-billion gain made by Facebook-parent Meta at the start of the month, and made Wall Street’s largest single-day gain in history at $1.96 trillion.

The Nvidia shares reacted with enthusiasm after the company posted better-than-estimated quarterly earnings. The earnings managed to beat the already high estimates by analysts. The chipmaker's results highlight the fact that the demand for specialised chips used in AI computing is soaring.

The sharp and record-making rally in Nvidia shares is seen having a positive impact on semiconductor-related stocks in India such as ASM Technologies and SPEL Semiconductors.

ASM Technology

ASM Technology shares traded at Rs 874.75 with gains of 3.85 percent on February 23 morning. The stock is up more than 78 percent on a year-to-date basis, while in five years, it has zoomed 1,750 percent.

In February alone, ASM Technology rallied 83 percent. The company provides service to reputed semiconductor equipment manufacturers.

“ASM Technology saw a lot of buying interest as it came out of 19 years of its consolidation range. A two-year breakout is seen in the stock and hence the demand for shares will be there, basis the chart study,” Darpan Patil, founder of Rupic consultancy, said.

SPEL Semiconductor

The shares were locked in the 5 percent upper circuit on February 23 morning. The SPEL Semiconductor shares surged 56 percent in February so far. In one year, SPEL Semiconductor shares are up by 195 percent.
