AI-Driven Data Center Boom Fuels Over 40% Net Profit Surge for Optical Module Leader! ChiNext AI ETF (159363) Extends Rally Beyond 2%

Deep News01-22 10:23

During early trading on the 22nd, driven by strong earnings expectations in the CPO optical module sector, the ChiNext artificial intelligence segment continued its ascent, climbing over 1%. Suzhou Tfc Optical Communication Co.,Ltd. led the charge with a significant 6% surge, while Zhongji Innolight rose more than 2% and Eoptolink Technology gained over 1%. Additionally, AI application stocks showed active performance, with Sangfor Technologies leading the pack with a 7% jump, followed by Chinese Online and BlueFocus Communication, which both advanced more than 2%.

Regarding popular ETFs, the ChiNext Artificial Intelligence ETF (159363), which strategically allocates to both "computing power and AI applications," saw its on-market price rise a further 2%. Real-time turnover exceeded 150 million yuan, with funds injecting over 1 billion yuan into the fund in the past five trading days alone.

On the news front, Suzhou Tfc Optical Communication Co.,Ltd. released its 2025 annual performance forecast. The company anticipates net profit attributable to shareholders will reach between 1.881 billion yuan and 2.150 billion yuan, representing a substantial year-on-year increase of 40.00% to 60.00%. This growth is primarily attributed to the accelerated development of the AI industry and global data center construction, which have driven sustained and stable demand for high-speed optical device products. This, combined with the company's ongoing smart manufacturing initiatives that reduce costs and improve efficiency, has collectively boosted revenue across its active and passive product lines.

Tianfeng Securities commented that as the market enters the earnings pre-announcement season, it remains firmly optimistic about investment opportunities in core players within the computing power industry chain. They believe core suppliers in the AI-driven computing power supply chain are poised for strong business growth and emphasize the importance of focusing on key manufacturers in the chain. Specifically, the high景气度 in the overseas computing power industry chain persists, with related companies' financial reports continuously reflecting robust demand linked to AI. The fundamental resonance within this related industrial chain is stronger, leading to a sustained positive outlook on investment opportunities in areas like optical modules within the overseas computing power sector.

Industrial Securities pointed out that since last November, high-growth upstream computing power hardware sectors, such as communications and semiconductors, have been among the tech industries with significant upward revisions to profit forecasts. This indicates potentially strong fundamental support. On the other hand, from a market performance perspective, the communications sector is also one of the AI hardware areas with relatively low gains since the beginning of the year. This combination of "upward earnings revisions" and "low relative涨幅" suggests the sector could attract inflows from fundamentally-focused investors during the earnings disclosure period.

The current phase of AI development is transitioning from computing infrastructure build-out to practical application deployment. The ChiNext Artificial Intelligence ETF (159363) and its off-exchange counterparts (Class A: 023407, Class C: 023408), which offer one-click exposure to both "computing power and AI applications," stand to benefit more directly from the growth红利 of AI technology commercialization. In terms of sector allocation, the ChiNext AI index, which the ETF tracks, allocates approximately 60% of its weight to computing power (primarily optical modules) and about 40% to AI applications, positioning it not only as a core "computing power" play but also as a genuine representative of "AI applications."
