$Lumentum(LITE)$ I can understand why someone holding a large short position would be pretty nervous here. The technicals are pointing significantly higher in the short term. Once 1035 gets cleared and retested, this could really take off.
$Lumentum(LITE)$ Everyone and their mother is short this one. Could see a squeeze up to 1050-1070. Would be surprised if the shorts get out of this that easily.
$Lumentum(LITE)$ Buy around $830, wait three days, sell around $930, wait three days, buy around $830 again, wait three days... rinse and repeat. Easiest money in the stock market.
$Lumentum(LITE)$ Good news all around, and shorts still have to cover. The climb looks ready to continue, with 1100, then 1200, and eventually $2000 in sight.
$Lumentum(LITE)$ What Lite-On is doing aligns directly with the broader global semiconductor alliance. The partnership framework shows Lite-On is not building a standalone solution; it is using POET Technologies' patented Optical Interposer platform to serve the massive demands of hyperscale data centers. This creates a unified tech standard. Because POET's passive interposer acts as a universal docking station, optical modules built by Lite-On are mechanically and architecturally aligned to plug into the broader ecosystem, meaning they can route data to and from a TSM-fabricated chip, use lasers from Lumentum, and support power hardware designed by NVDA. It is a massive advantage that independent U.S. designer
$NVIDIA(NVDA)$ $Coherent(COHR)$ $Lumentum(LITE)$ $AXT Inc(AXTI)$ AXT supplies raw indium phosphide wafers, which then feed into Coherent and Lumentum for high-speed lasers and 1.6T transceivers. From there, NVIDIA and the hyperscalers deploy them across AI supercomputers and data centers.
$Lumentum(LITE)$ It could get a serious boost if Huang announces he put a couple more billion into LITE, or even just mentions LITE on the call. This one looks ready to move up.
$Cisco(CSCO)$ Momentum is running ahead of peers as the Secure AI Factory moves to rack-scale. Supermicro with Nvidia Vera Rubin, Silicon One, and Spectrum-X. 1.6T optics versus LITE. Canada sovereign cloud expansion. Micro futures give traders a clean hedge. Networking is becoming AI infrastructure. $NVIDIA(NVDA)$ $SUPER MICRO COMPUTER INC(SMCI)$
$Lumentum(LITE)$ Daniel Newman, CEO of Futurum Group, revised his AI data center capex estimate to $14 trillion by 2030. LITE should keep delivering blowout earnings at least through 2030. I see this pullback as a buying opportunity. The stock likely has a lot more upside from here.
$Lumentum(LITE)$ Has anyone else noticed we're moving in lockstep with MU? Sometimes MU runs about $100 higher per share, only to come back down to around $40 higher per share, and then it repeats all over again. MU looks like a decent indicator for LITE's share price movement. I'm buying this pullback, expecting it to go much higher.
$Roundhill Memory ETF(DRAM)$ I'd like to see oil come back down. When oil rises on inflation fears or worries about higher interest rates, stocks tend to fall, and chips usually get hit first. The strait reopening and no further bombing threats would help.
$Roundhill Memory ETF(DRAM)$ Finished in the green. Now waiting to see what comes out of the Korean side on this stock buyback. Hopefully it holds up overnight.
$Roundhill Memory ETF(DRAM)$ Tough day. I picked up a couple hundred shares at 54.95 and the price dropped right after. Then I added 300 more at 54.62 and it went even lower. On the bright side, options call volume is sitting at the 70 strike in the quarterly expiry. That's encouraging. I'll roll my 65 puts expiring Friday tomorrow or Friday morning.
