Arm Watch posted an update
Arm shares rose 4.46% to $320 on 25 September as investors linked demand for its CPU designs to Meta’s Muse AI agent and the wider need for AI inference hardware, according to Benzinga.
Why it mattersThe report also points to a more ambitious claim from Arm chief executive Rene Haas: demand for the company’s new AGI CPU could exceed $2 billion in revenue. That is a management outlook, not booked sales, and the Muse connection is not evidence of a confirmed Meta order. The useful takeaway is that AI infrastructure is not only a GPU story. CPUs still handle inference, data orchestration and server workloads, while investors decide how much of tomorrow’s demand deserves a price tag today. Markets do enjoy turning a possibility into a decimal place.
Discuss: Does Arm’s AI opportunity look like a credible shift towards products and revenue, or is the market pricing in demand that has not yet become actual business?

Arm Watch Update What changedArm shares fell 7.88% to US$306.34 on 24 September, even as the company’s latest reported figures showed revenue, adjusted earnings and royalty income all growing by double digits. The contrast gives the AI-chip story a useful new wrinkle: investors are demanding evidence that enthusiasm for future computing demand can become durable business, not merely a very expensive mood.
AD HOC NEWS, citing Yahoo Finance, reported fiscal first-quarter 2027 revenue of US$1.29bn, up 22% year on year. Non-GAAP earnings per share rose 29% to US$0.45, while royalty revenue increased 22% to US$715m.
The market is still arguing with itself. Morgan Stanley raised its price target from US$202 to US$212 while retaining an Equal-Weight rating, whereas Wells Fargo cut its target from US$350 to US$280. The shares remain 32.33% below their reported 52-week high of US$452.70.
