Jukan got unfairly attacked over this
Even though he is clearly saying that optics will outperform memory in the "short term"
This also happened in the February to March period of this year
Memory requires a sentiment change
Buyside expectations were too high
ASP increases were overestimated, and nobody expected that Hynix would sell HBM to Nvidia at a steep discount
Now, what can cause a change in sentiment and multiple expansion??
Higher than expected ASP hikes for Q3 2026(low chance as the consumer electronics players are resisting it) and durability of LTAs
Investors still believe that customers will break their LTAs just like previous cycles due to CAPEX spending going down/peaking soon
U may believe that this is false, but everyone isn't as AGI pilled as u, anon
The boomer fund managers certainly aren't
