Lumentum Holdings Inc. (LITE) experienced a 24-hour plunge of 5.00% during the trading session.
The decline occurred as the communication equipment sector broadly weakened, with sector peers including Applied Optoelectronics, Nokia, Ciena, and Arista Networks also trading lower, intensifying selling pressure on individual stocks.
Independent research firm SemiAnalysis published a report indicating that co-packaged optics (CPO) mass production timelines may be delayed until 2028 or 2029, with system-level yields reportedly around 19%, which is far below production-ready standards. This fundamental concern over CPO delays continues to weigh on sentiment within the optical communications sector.
