What Is Cadence Design Systems?

The chipmakers' toolmaker.

Cadence Design Systems sells the software that chips are designed in. Alongside Synopsys it forms a near-duopoly in electronic design automation, the tools every processor, from a phone modem to an AI accelerator, has to pass through before it exists in silicon. That position makes Cadence a leveraged read on the chip cycle without owning a single fab, and its crowd on the CFGI stock index trades the AI buildout's mood one step removed from the chipmakers themselves.

The CFGI read: Cadence printed its deepest Extreme Fear of the whole window, 16 out of 100, on 20 July 2026, in its most recent week of trading, at $331.26, with 116 of the stocks we track in Fear or worse around it. Yet the window's price change is positive, up 12.9% overall, and fear at higher prices is the signature of a crowd burnt at the top: the price peaked at $416.39 on 2 June 2026, and three days later the score collapsed 41 points in one session, from 75 to 34, the sharpest break of its year.

Cadence Design Systems Fear and Greed Index History

Q3 2026 breakdown. The table below updates daily.

Across 273 scored days from 23 June 2025 the ledger is finely strung: 74 days in Fear or worse, 83 in Greed or better, 116 in Neutral, on an average of exactly 50, the midline of the scale. The peak came early, 88 out of 100 on 30 July 2025 at $371.03, inside a three-day Extreme Greed run from 29 to 31 July 2025 that the crowd has seldom matched since.

The swings between those poles have been violent. A 15-day Fear or worse siege ran from 5 to 25 November 2025, and the price low of $265.66 on 10 April 2026 was answered by an 11-day Greed or better run from 15 to 29 April. The single biggest jump, 31 points from 20 to 51, landed on 6 February 2026, one day after 34 of 246 stocks sat in Extreme Fear together: this crowd rebounded from the market's worst panic almost immediately.

Four days after that 16, the score had climbed only to 31, Fear, on 24 July 2026. A fearful crowd set against a rising tape, $293.56 at the window's start to $331.35 at its end, is precisely the kind of divergence the Fear and Greed Index exists to surface.
