Shares of Us-listed European stocks are trading lower after President Trump recommended a 50% straight tariff on the European Union, staring Jun. 1.

ASML Holding (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ASML#NASDAQ">ASML</a>) has outperformed the market over the past 15 years by 10.2% on an annualized basis producing an average annual return of 22.07%. Currently, ASML Holding has a market capitalization of $285.84 billion.

Here's How Much You Would Have Made Owning ASML Holding Stock In The Last 15 Years

President Donald Trump&#8217;s threat to impose a sweeping 50% tariff on all European Union imports starting June 1 sparked a broad selloff across European markets Friday, triggering fears of a transatlantic trade war just as global <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/tariffs">growth faces renewed pressure.</a>
In a post on Truth Social, Trump said the EU&#8217;s "powerful Trade Barriers, VAT Taxes, ridiculous Corporate Penalties, Non-Monetary Trade Barriers, Monetary Manipulations, unfair and unjustified lawsuits against American Companies" were to blame for an annual trade deficit exceeding $250 billion, which he called "totally unacceptable."
The proposed tariff would exempt goods manufactured in the United States, potentially creating sharp distortions for EU-based exporters and global supply chains.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">European Benchmarks Tumble</h3>
The fallout was immediate in markets. The Euro STOXX 50 index – as closely tracked by the iShares MSCI Eurozone ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EZU#NYSE">EZU</a>) – dropped 3%, Italy's FTSE MIB sank 2.9%, France's CAC 40 lost 2.6% and Spain's IBEX 35 fell 2.2%. 
Germany's DAX, as tracked by the iShares MSCI Germany Index Fund (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EWG#NYSE">EWG</a>), which is home to many export-heavy firms, slid 2.3%.
Financial stocks bore the brunt of the decline, with Deutsche Bank AG (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DB#NYSE">DB</a>) falling 6.1%, Société Générale SA (OTCPK: SCGLY) down 5.3% and Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria SA (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BBVA#NYSE">BBVA</a>) sliding 5%.
 Industrial and luxury exporters also came under heavy pressure, including Bayerische Motoren Werke AG (OTCPK: BMWYY), or BMW (−4.5%), UniCredit SpA (OTCPK: UNCRY) (−4.5%) and EssilorLuxottica SA (OTCPK: ESLOY) (−4.2%).
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Export Exposure To US Trade Is Key</h3>
The tariff threat has placed a spotlight on European companies heavily reliant on U.S. revenues.
In Germany, Adidas AG (OTCPK: ADDYY) derives roughly a third of its revenue from the United States, while SAP SE (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SAP#NYSE">SAP</a>) generates about 40% of its turnover from North America. 
Chipmaker Infineon Technologies AG (OTCPK: IFNNY) is also significantly exposed due to its automotive and electronics customers.
French luxury and tech firms are equally at risk. LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton SE (OTCPK: LVMUY) earns close to 25% of its revenue in the U.S., while Dassault Systèmes SE (OTCPK: DASTY) has a strong footprint in North American enterprise software. Hermès International SA (OTCPK: HESAY) pulls about 20-25% of its sales from the American market.
Italian brands like Ferrari NV (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RACE#NYSE">RACE</a>), with over 30% of sales from the U.S., and EssilorLuxottica SA (OTCPK: ESLOY), which owns Oakley and Ray-Ban, are also vulnerable. 
In the Netherlands, tech heavyweight ASML Holding NV (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ASML#NASDAQ">ASML</a>) earns about 20-25% of revenue from the U.S., and Koninklijke Philips NV (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PHG#NYSE">PHG</a>) maintains a major healthcare business across North America.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">EU Retaliation Risk Grows For US Stocks</h3>
For U.S. corporations with heavy exposure to Europe—particularly in tech, autos, agriculture and aviation—the economic consequences could be significant if the European Union responds in kind.
The 2018 EU countermeasures to Trump&#8217;s steel tariffs included duties on motorcycles, bourbon and orange juice—strategic hits on U.S. swing-state exports.
EU officials may also revisit tech taxation disputes, where U.S. firms like Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>), Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) and Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) are already under regulatory scrutiny.

Trump Tariff Threat Hits Europe: Stocks Sink As 50% Duties Loom

ASML Holding NV (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ASML#NASDAQ">ASML</a>) attributed a decade-long investment in developing a high numerical aperture behind its most advanced and expensive <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/chip-stocks" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">chipmaking machine that</a> commanded a price of over $400 million. 
The chip equipment maker manufactured its high NA machines in Connecticut, California, Germany and the Netherlands, then assembled them in the Veldhoven, Netherlands, lab for testing and approval before disassembling them again for shipment, CNBC <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/05/22/exclusive-look-at-high-na-asmls-new-400-million-chipmaking-colossus.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">reported</a> on Thursday.
Intel Corp.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>) Oregon chip fabrication plant became ASML&#8217;s first high NA machine customer in 2024. ASML has shipped only five of them.

ASML has ramped up production to serve Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSM#NYSE">TSM</a>), Samsung Electronics (SSNLF) and Intel. 
ASML told CNBC that High NA would also serve its EUV customers, such as Micron Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MU#NASDAQ">MU</a>), SK Hynix and Rapidus.
CEO Christophe Fouquet replied to CNBC that the company purposely kept the prices of its machines in check to drive the chipmaking costs down, as per Moore&#8217;s law, leading to more opportunities.
ASML is building its first U.S. training center in Arizona.
It plans to ship at least five more systems in 2025 and ramp up production capacity of 20 machines in a few years.
ASML stock lost nearly 7% year-to-date as it grappled with U.S. semiconductor sanctions and tariff policies on China and other countries.
CNBC&#8217;s &#8220;Mad Money Lightning Round,&#8221;&nbsp;Jim Cramer recommended buying&nbsp;Lam Research Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LRCX#NASDAQ">LRCX</a>) over ASML, citing ASML&#8217;s <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/05/45466164/jim-cramer-prefers-autozone-over-rival-buy-the-one-thats-not-going-to-stock-split" rel="noreferrer noopener">weaker quarterly results</a>.

Jim Cramer Prefers AutoZone Over Rival: 'Buy The One That's Not Going To Stock Split'

ASML Holding's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ASML#NYSE">ASML</a>) short percent of float has risen 18.84% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 2.90 million shares sold short, which is 0.82% of all regular shares that are available for trading.

<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

<h3>ASML Holding Short Interest Graph (3 Months)</h3>
<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1747234821_0_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for ASML Holding has grown since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to fall in the near-term but traders should be aware that more shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing ASML Holding's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>, ASML Holding's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 9.17%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>

<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for ASML Holding has grown since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to fall in the near-term but traders should be aware that more shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing ASML Holding's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>, ASML Holding's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 8.93%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.

If You Invested $10K In ASML Stock 10 Years Ago, How Much Would You Have Now?

A semiconductor expert on AlphaSense broke down the industry&#8217;s shifting dynamics with tariffs, trade wars, and other geopolitical uncertainties. While not named by the platform, the expert drew clear lines between those who are poised to win big amid this chaos and those who stand to lose.
What Happened: On Wednesday, AlphaSense, a market intelligence platform that helps analysts and researchers meet subject-matter experts, shared the transcript of one such interaction between an analyst and an expert in the semiconductor industry on its X account.
The expert, who previously worked for Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>), says the tariffs will hurt all technology companies across the board. The reason for this, they say, is the &#8220;potential erosion of demand,&#8221; as tariffs have an inflationary effect, impacting consumer purchasing power.
See More: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/04/44969920/its-not-going-to-end-well-former-sec-chair-gensler-says-chinese-are-tough-negotiators-who-believe-they-can-outwait-us-policy-volatility">&#8216;It&#8217;s Not Going To End Well&#8217;—Former SEC Chair Gensler Says Chinese Are &#8216;Tough Negotiators&#8217; Who Believe They Can Outwait US Policy Volatility</a>
They, however, believe that companies like the Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSM#NYSE">TSM</a>) are at a much more favorable position relative to peers. This is because TSMC manufactures 90% of the world&#8217;s advanced chips, and is thus a beneficiary of President Donald Trump&#8217;s recent exemptions on electronics imports. 
<figure class="wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter">

&mdash; AlphaSense (@AlphaSenseInc) <a href="https://twitter.com/AlphaSenseInc/status/1914665679178866924?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">April 22, 2025</a></blockquote>
<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>

Because China considers Taiwan a part of its territory, it hasn't imposed tariffs on imports from the island, a factor that further benefits TSMC. With no manufacturing facilities in the U.S., the chipmaker is uniquely positioned to serve customers in China, the U.S., and globally, with minimal trade barriers.
Besides this, the expert sees the deterioration of relationships between the U.S. and the E.U. as an advantage for fab equipment maker ASML Holding NV (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ASML#NASDAQ">ASML</a>), allowing it to freely sell to customers in China, from where it already derives <a href="https://benzinga.com/25/03/44136859/asml-faces-uncertainty-as-us-sanctions-on-china-cut-demand-stock-down-24-in-12-months">close to 40%</a> of its sales annually.
The expert views the tariffs as a net negative for Nvidia, particularly in light of China's new export restrictions, which are expected to create a bottleneck for the company's high-end chips. Intel Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>) is also seen as vulnerable, with them suggesting that it stands to lose on both fronts of the escalating trade tensions.
Why It Matters: There has been a flurry of activity in the semiconductor industry in recent weeks, with major players like TSMC announcing <a href="https://benzinga.com/25/03/44084767/taiwan-semiconductor-weighs-100-billion-us-investment-as-chip-war-heats-up">plans to invest $100 billion</a> to begin chip production within the United States. 
China <a href="https://benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/02/43966206/china-warns-tsmc-could-become-united-states-semiconductor-manufacturing-co-as-trump-pushes-us-chipmaking">saw this coming</a> early this year, with Zhu Fenglian, spokesperson for Beijing's Taiwan Affairs Office, taking a jab at TSMC, warning that it could soon be called the &#8220;United States Semiconductor Manufacturing Co.,&#8221; suggesting that the Taiwanese government was selling out domestic companies for political backing from the U.S. government. 
While Nvidia remains caught in the crosshairs between China and the United States, some analysts are doubling down on the stock, despite the new AI diffusion rules and H20 export ban. According to BoFA analyst Vivek Arya, the <a href="https://benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/price-target/25/04/44934100/analyst-sticks-with-nvidia-despite-fallout-from-china-curbs">company&#8217;s global footprint</a>, alongside the growing sales of Blackwell Ultra GPUs, should help offset any major impact.
Price Action: Shares of Nvidia were up 3.86% yesterday, trading at $102.71, followed by TSMC at 157.81, up 4.20%. ASMV Holding and Intel were up 3.02% and 5.54%, respectively.

TSMC, ASML May Win The Chip War, Says Expert, But Nvidia And Intel Could Feel The Heat From Trump Tariffs

China's reported breakthrough in producing 5-nanometer <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/eurozone/25/03/44253751/asml-boosts-ai-chip-rd-in-europe-amid-us-sanctions-china-slowdown-and-subsidy-uncertainty">chips without extreme ultraviolet</a> (EUV) lithography has sparked warnings from tech leaders.
What Happened: On Wednesday, William Huo, Intel Corp's (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>) first chief representative in Beijing, took to X, formerly Twitter, and highlighted the report that China's Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corporation (SMIC) had manufactured 5 nm-class chips without using EUV tools.
"BREAKING: China made 5nm chips without EUV. Let that sink in," Huo wrote. "No ASML. No Nikon. Just brute-force DUV, clever engineering, and sheer industrial will."
He credited the milestone to advanced deep ultraviolet (DUV) techniques and innovations like Self-Aligned Quadruple Patterning (SAQP), calling the result "Moore's Law by force, not finesse."

Huo said that these chips are symbolic of China's resilience against U.S. sanctions and its emergence as a self-reliant chip powerhouse.
Responding to Huo's thread on the platform, venture capitalist Chamath Palihapitiya added his own stark assessment, saying, "There is one, and only one, battle that must be won&#8230; Technical Superiority."&nbsp;
"Countries who have technical superiority will have military and economic superiority over those that don't&#8230; China is formidable and neck and neck with America, but America can win if we focus and prioritize."
The "SPAC King" warned that America could lose its edge if it continues to favor bureaucracy and red tape over actual innovation and scaling.

Why It's Important: Last month, Wccftech cited industry insiders and <a href="https://wccftech.com/smic-5nm-development-completed-in-2025/">reported</a> that SMIC is expected to complete its 5nm chip development by 2025.
However, the manufacturing cost of these chips could be up to 50% higher than that of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSM#NYSE">TSM</a>), largely due to SMIC&#8217;s inability to access advanced EUV tools.
As per the report, SMIC&#8217;s yield rates for 5nm wafers are roughly one-third of what TSMC achieves on comparable technology. Despite these challenges, Huawei Technologies is said to be planning to incorporate SMIC's 5nm chips into its Ascend 910C AI processors.
This is part of broader efforts to reduce dependence on Nvidia Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) and boost domestic capabilities.
While reporting its first-quarter financial results, TSMC said, &#8220;Moving into second quarter 2025, we expect our business to be supported by strong demand for our industry-leading 3nm and 5nm technologies,&#8221; referring to the continuing demand for these chips.
Earlier this month, the White House enacted a permanent export restriction on Nvidia's H20 chips to China, a move that the company says could impact its quarterly revenue by <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/04/44828742/nvidia-stock-is-tumbling-after-hours-heres-why">as much as $5.5 billion</a>.
This is part of the U.S. government&#8217;s efforts to bring advanced chip manufacturing back home. A key piece of the puzzle is cutting-edge technology like EUV lithography from Dutch company ASML Holdings (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ASML#NASDAQ">ASML</a>), which is essential for producing smaller, more powerful chips.
Intel earns a growth rating of 3.59% from Benzinga Edge Stock Rankings. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/premium/ideas/benzinga-edge-2#:~:text=Turn%20Market%20Chaos,when%20markets%20rebound">Click here to compare its performance</a> with TSMC, Nvidia, and other leading tech giants.
