Super Micro Computer's 16.81 Billion Trading Volume Ranks 39th Amid 3.69% Stock Surge

On May 27, 2025, Super Micro Computer (SMCI) saw a trading volume of 16.81 billion, ranking 39th in the day's market activity. The stock price of Super Micro Computer (SMCI) rose by 3.69%.

Super Micro Computer's stock has experienced significant volatility, with a 31% increase month-to-date, marking the largest monthly gain since February. This rally comes after broad declines in March, highlighting the company's erratic performance. The volatility accelerated in early 2024 due to multibillion-dollar AI spending by major data-center operators, which initially boosted optimism. However, this enthusiasm waned after the resignation of auditor Ernst & Young in October 2024, raising concerns about the firm's controls.

Super Micro Computer received a Nasdaq exemption in December, allowing it until February to file delayed financials. Investors are also grappling with margin pressure, intense competition, and weak guidance for the fiscal fourth quarter ending June 30. In April, SMCI was the most-shorted S&P 500 stock, with 21.3% of its tradable shares sold short.
