Texas Instruments Stock Plummets 12.92% in Two Days Amid China Tariffs, Ranks 19th in Daily Trading Volume
On April 11, 2025, texas instruments (TXN) experienced a significant decline, with its stock price dropping by 5.75% over the course of two consecutive days, resulting in a total decrease of 12.92%. The trading volume for the day was 30.29 billion, placing Texas Instruments at the 19th position in terms of daily trading volume.
The recent downturn in Texas Instruments' stock price can be attributed to the announcement of new tariffs by China, which specifically target semiconductor imports. This move has had a ripple effect on chipmakers with manufacturing plants in the United States, including Texas Instruments. The tariffs are expected to impact the company's domestic manufacturing operations, raising concerns among investors about the potential financial implications.
In response to the tariffs, the Chinese Semiconductor Industry Association has clarified that U.S. chipmakers, including Texas Instruments, are exempt from certain tariffs. However, this exemption does not cover all aspects of the tariff policy, leaving room for uncertainty and potential financial risks for the company. The White House has also confirmed that the tariff rate on China has increased to 145%, further complicating the situation for U.S. companies with significant exposure to the Chinese market.
Investors are closely monitoring the situation, as the trade tensions between the U.S. and China continue to evolve. The impact of these tariffs on Texas Instruments' stock price remains a key area of concern, with the company's domestic manufacturing footprint being a significant factor in the ongoing market volatility. As the situation develops, it will be crucial for Texas Instruments to navigate these challenges and adapt to the changing trade landscape.
