ASML shares jump 3% after Aletheia Capital upgrade on bullish EUV outlook

ASML shares jumped more than 3% on Friday after investment firm Aletheia Capital upgraded the stock from “sell” to “buy.” This move came with a sharply more positive view of the future demand for ASML’s advanced chip‑making tools, especially its extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography machines, key gear for next‑generation chips. This surge in ASML’s stock price shows how investor sentiment can shift quickly when analysts highlight strong growth trends.
