KLA Corp Reaches 52-Week High Following Analyst Upgrade

KLA Corp, a semiconductor equipment manufacturer based in the United States, has reached a new 52-week high following an analyst upgrade. The company’s stock price has increased as a result of the upgrade, with some brokerages revising their price targets upwards.
