CPO & 800V DC selloff — delayed, not dead 🙃 A SemiAnalysis report flagged timeline slips for two big AI trades. ➡️ Nvidia's native 800V DC pushed to 2028 ➡️ CPO mass production maybe slipping to 2028-2029 Both trades already ran high on hype. A credible report and

OPTICAL / CPO Negativity: Optical names didn't get much boost from Computex and are underperforming during the correction. Some negativity on CPO rollout related to manufacturing yields noted by MS today. Not what the names needed (admittedly, CPO not directly relevant for all). FOCI $3363; LANDMARK $3081; SANTEC $6777; FURUKAWA $5801; SEI $5802; YOFC $6869

Coinbase CPO Faryar Shirzad says the CLARITY Act will be "the biggest financial regulatory bill the Congress has done in quite some time," on @MorningsMaria. It's "the first piece of legislation since the 90s that gives the banks new authorization to get into the crypto space."

Random CPO related names I like: - $SIVE - Foci (3363) - $TSEM - Browave (3163) - PCL (4977) - $AXTI - Msscorps (6830) - $IQE - Shunsin (6451) - Furukawa Electric (5801) - $MTSI - Nextronics (8417) - $LITE - $COHR - FitTech (6706) - $GFS - $ASX - LandMark (3081) - $SOI Disclosure: I own most, not all though.

Morgan Stanley note on CPO today. Key participants include: - $SIVE, $COHR, and $LITE in laser supply - Broadcom and Nvidia in switch platforms - Lightmatter, Ayar Labs, Marvell/Celestial, and POET in optical engines and photonics, - $TSM, $GFS, and $TSEM in silicon photonics foundry capacity I’ve covered all of these before, like Tower Semi. But I’m especially happy that Morgan Stanley validated my research that $SIVE is one of the critical global players in CPO. A small $1.5B laser company next to your two leading $60B+ companies… If you also synthesize Rosenblatt Securities recent note that China laser suppliers were quite far from having CPO lasers. This kinda magnifies importance of the three Western leaders of that laser chokepoint.
