On October 23, Applied Optoelectronics rose 5.04% in Pre-Market Trading, trading at $71.62 per share, with turnover of $9.57 million.
The main catalyst was a rebound in optical communications names, which supported a short-term recovery in Applied Optoelectronics after the group weakened sharply in the prior session.
Recent market coverage showed optical communications stocks rebounding, with Lumentum up 5.0%, Nokia up 5.84%, Arista Networks up 1.53%, and Ciena up 3.81%, indicating improving sentiment across the communications equipment chain. That said, the stock is still facing overhangs from B. Riley lowering its price target to $92 from $109 while maintaining a Neutral rating, alongside recent large-dated put activity that has reflected cautious sentiment toward the shares.
