Volatility is currently expanding
COHR is benefiting from the AI infrastructure boom as rising demand for optical networking strengthens its growth outlook despite valuation concerns.
Shares of Coherent (NYSE:COHR | COHR Price Prediction) are down 11% to $241.62 midday Tuesday, with Applied Optoelectronics (NASDAQ:AAOI) stock falling 10% to $87.89 and Lumentum (NASDAQ:LITE) stock off 9% to $644.56.
With AI capex dominating market sentiment, tech leaders are tempting the bulls. Speaking at the RAISE Summit, Lumentum CEO Michael Hurlston warned that the next AI infrastructure bottleneck is indium phosphide (InP), a niche semiconductor material.
COHR is transforming into an optical networking powerhouse, delivering strong growth, expanding production capacity, and securing long-term commitments over industry peers.
Coherent's AI infrastructure momentum, expanding profitability and stronger valuation make it the more compelling opportunity over Arm Holdings.
