Serenity on X

I’m just calling out what I see with a failure in corporate communication, when so much is at stake. I’m really not sure why SK Hynix/Samsung representing SK’s economy let narratives of memory oversupply be dominated by their own customers on X. Or why $CBRS, which lost billions in valuation after the short seller report, is waiting for an analyst question in earnings to fix the damage Or why many of the “guppies” that would face a death in the Neocloud market aren’t actively fighting back against that claim here. A lot of narratives and claims originated and were distributed via X. Even if you don’t like Elon or X, even the Democratic Party combats narratives here as seen with the ratio on the VP’s New York post I don’t see why this can’t be done with AI companies calling BS on $4 B300 price gluts.

$MFC the spotlight has shifted off private credit but the issues have not gone away. MFC is in my opinion one of the more overlooked violators stuffing their life insurance investments with outsized exposure to private credit and cre. Just look under the hood of their earnings tonight. "𝐖𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐮𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐞 𝐥𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫 𝐢𝐭𝐬 𝐚𝐥𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐭 𝐫𝐞𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐧 𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐮𝐦𝐩𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬? Alternative long-duration assets missed expected returns by $153 million post-tax, marking six straight negative quarters and $1.35 billion of cumulative shortfalls by our math. Keeping unchanged return assumptions turns recurring investment shortfalls into excluded below-the-line charges every quarter."

Yes $AAOI had a massive InP substrate purchase order earlier, and I don’t believe all of that is going toward transceiver lasers that Rosenblatt modeled. I believe have the similar 60%+ GM UHP laser capabilities that $COHR $20B LTAs and $LITE $5B LTAs are primarily for. While having a MC of <$5B and we’ll see some announcements there later. As for $SIVE, it’s mainly about qualifications given they have the capacity now with foundries + 100m laser expansion plan. $MRVL + $LITE gives it an extremely clear window of opportunity as well, alongside current laser bottlenecks for qualifying players like $CRDO, Innolight, Cambridge, and hyperscalers. We’ll see what new partners they announce in earnings this month. Given both their tiny $600m, ~$4.9B MCs, I would not be surprised if their 2028 revenue exceeded their valuations.
