On August 3, AI hardware showed divergent trends, with optical communication sectors like optical modules and fiber optics rebounding, while memory chips continued to decline. Tianfu Communication notably strengthened, rising 6%, Liantek Technology surged 14%, Copper Bull Information gained 8%, and Zhongji Innolight moved into positive territory. Among popular ETFs, the ChiNext Artificial Intelligence ETF Huabao (159363), which heavily weights optical module leaders, opened lower but climbed during the session, turning positive several times, demonstrating resilience.
Guosheng Securities pointed out that the optical communication sector has recently undergone significant adjustments, with panic sentiment intensively released. Amazon provided a clear breakdown of its AI capital expenditure logic, effectively addressing market concerns about whether massive investments can generate returns. From the perspective of adjustment magnitude, the sector's short-term decline has approached levels seen in previous deep corrections, with valuations falling to historically reasonable lows. After the panic release, the optical communication sector is moving towards a reversal of fortunes. Valuations of domestic optical module leaders are below historical averages.
As of Friday's close, from the PE (FY1, latest forecast year) perspective, both Zhongji Innolight and Xinyi Sheng are below their historical median values. Current market pessimistic expectations for optical communication have been fully priced in, while the industrial trend has not experienced a directional reversal. When valuations are compressed to extremes and fundamentals remain upward, the market will eventually recalibrate pricing for optical communication.
