On June 30, ASML rose 3.23% in regular trading, trading at approximately $1,952.46/share, with turnover of $610 million.
On the news front, Degroof Petercam upgraded ASML from Hold to Buy, raising its target price from €1,325 to €2,100, a 58% increase reflecting strong institutional conviction in the company's medium-to-long-term growth trajectory.

The core thesis behind the concentrated upgrades from multiple institutions centers on massive capacity expansion plans from global memory chip giants, combined with sustained robust demand from artificial intelligence and high-performance computing chips, which directly boosts long-term order expectations for ASML's EUV/DUV lithography systems and other core equipment.
