Market Focus07-13 21:58

On July 13, Applied Optoelectronics fell 5.2% in regular trading, trading at $110.08/share, with turnover of $166 million.

On the news front, optical communications stocks extended their pullback broadly, with sector peers Nokia down 6.15%, Lumentum down 4.31%, Cisco down 2.89%, and Arista Networks down 1.75%. Corning and Astera Labs also fell over 6% during the session. The sector had previously surged on July 9, driven by AI computing infrastructure tailwinds, with Lumentum rallying over 12% and AAOI gaining over 9%. The subsequent decline across July 10 and July 13 reflects short-term profit-taking characteristics as investors lock in gains from the prior rally.

Applied Optoelectronics is an industry-leading fiber-optic networking products provider, serving cable television, fiber-to-the-home, and data center end markets.
