Bullish — $LITE $COHR $AAOI $SIVE $CRDO
Evercore ISI just called optics a critical bottleneck to the AI buildout. Reasons:
FCC is set to boot Chinese suppliers from the U.S. 3.2T market by Q1’27.
Yields (for Asian players) are running below what the models need. Lane speeds just went from a 5-year cycle to near-annual.
Chinese capacity can’t keep up at the new speeds.
Domestic leaders get the scarcity premium.
The rack is becoming a network.
The bottleneck is still optics.
Position before it’s too late.
We are long many stocks mentioned here. NFA.
