What Happened?

A number of stocks jumped in the afternoon session after investor sentiment improved on renewed optimism that the US-China trade conflict might be nearing a resolution. According to reports, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent reinforced this positive outlook by describing the trade war as "unsustainable," and emphasized that a potential agreement between the two economic powers "was possible." His comments signaled to markets that both sides might be motivated to seek common ground, raising expectations for reduced tariffs and more stability across markets.

Zooming In On Vishay Precision (VPG)

Vishay Precision’s shares are quite volatile and have had 16 moves greater than 5% over the last year. In that context, today’s move indicates the market considers this news meaningful but not something that would fundamentally change its perception of the business.

The biggest move we wrote about over the last year was 9 months ago when the stock dropped 7.7% on the news that the company reported weak second quarter earnings. Vishay Precision beat analysts' EPS expectations. On the other hand, its revenue guidance for the next quarter missed, and its revenue fell short of Wall Street's estimates. Overall, this was a bad quarter for Vishay Precision.

Vishay Precision is down 8.7% since the beginning of the year, and at $21.23 per share, it is trading 38.3% below its 52-week high of $34.40 from May 2024. Investors who bought $1,000 worth of Vishay Precision’s shares 5 years ago would now be looking at an investment worth $1,014.
