On June 12, Sony fell 3.07% in regular trading, trading at $20.47/share, with turnover of $19.22 million.
On the news front, Sony released a new flagship Xperia smartphone equipped with AI camera capabilities this week, but market attention remained focused on the negative impact from its predecessor model. The Xperia 1 VII suffered a manufacturing defect causing sudden power-offs or restarts, forcing Sony to halt sales for two months and issue a recall. Sony has long struggled in the smartphone market against dominant players like Apple and Samsung, with Apple holding roughly half of Japan's market share. According to MM Research Institute, Sony ranked only seventh in Japan, trailing Google, Samsung Electronics, Sharp, FCNT, and Oppo.
Within the Consumer Electronics sector, the overall sector was under pressure. Among individual stocks, Garmin down 0.6%, Sonos Inc down 2.2%, GoPro up 0.83%, Algorhythm Holdings down 4.77%, Emerson Radio down 4.52%.
