Oil up 7.5% and $EXPE continues its squeeze because it's simply the opposite end of the ai trade? How long can these on/off trades define every stock in the market? Crazy

Friendly reminder that $MRK is well positioned and well incentivized to purchase $LQDA. Yutrepia fits very well with Merck's respiratory portfolio. https://t.co/JAdLguTw7D

@GullCoveCapital Like all other opposition pieces, this article assumes "facts" not in evidence. The reality is joint testing is needed. $NN has been pushing for this for 2 years, but the opposition has resisted. Why is that? IMHO the key part of the article is below: https://t.co/LFpFs7ebCu

Shelly $SLYG has now confirmed that they are in preliminary discussions with Schneider Electric regarding a potential tender offer for the shares of the Company There is no certainty that these discussions will result in an offer being made, nor as to the terms or timing of such. https://t.co/Nsgvo1MHDh https://t.co/W2TejaVCCk

AXTI — 6-inch demand visibility $AXTI remains the critical constraint in InP wafers. The recent three-year supply agreement with Coherent for 6-inch substrates (backed by a $22.3 million prepayment) underscores how tight the market still is — customers are willing to prepay and lock capacity years ahead. It improves visibility for AXT’s expansion plans, but the overall supply gap remains wide.

Ciena — the underappreciated coherent layer As AI clusters move beyond a single building into campus and multi-site “scale-across” architectures, short-reach optics hit their physical limits. Signal distortion and dispersion make conventional detection unusable over distance. $CIEN’s coherent technology recovers both amplitude and phase, reconstructing a clean signal where others cannot. The market remains focused on the high-volume short-reach stack — pluggables, CPO, and related optics inside the data center. Coherent is the quieter, longer-reach piece that becomes essential once clusters themselves become distributed.

Like $GLW, I wish margins/ROIC were higher and capital intensity were lower at $AMKR. Yet, with the stock now back around $46 (largely flat YTD and cut in half from its highs), the Amkor setup now seems pretty good over the next 3-4 years due to their scale, new capacity investments, and the increasing importance of advanced packaging capabilities.

Despite my past skepticism, $GLW around its current $125 per share ($110 b cap) actually seems fairly compelling given the company’s scale, leading market position, and multi-year growth ramp.
