On July 2, ASE Technology rose 4% overnight, trading at $44.71/share, with turnover of $268,000.

On the news front, the company announced on July 1 another round of packaging price increases, with hikes reaching up to 20%. As the world's largest outsourced semiconductor assembly and test (OSAT) provider, ASE's repricing move signals robust demand in advanced packaging. The bullish catalyst had been temporarily overshadowed during the prior session when the broader semiconductor sector experienced a sharp pullback — with Micron Technology down 6.11%, Intel down 5.43%, and AMD down 4.29% — dragging ASE down 3.88% intraday. As sector selling pressure subsequently eased, the pricing logic regained market recognition.

Additionally, Bank of America previously raised its valuation outlook for ASE, projecting the server CPU-related packaging and testing market to expand from $1.9 billion to $9.6 billion, underscoring advanced packaging as the most defensible segment in the semiconductor supply chain.
