• Nasdaq Composite is down 1.10%; risk appetite remains cautious amid elevated energy prices, higher yields, and geopolitical tensions.
• No fresh MACOM announcement or analyst action was identified; market-wide sentiment is clearest, consistent with similar MACOM declines during semiconductor selloffs.
