I found the technical discussion helpful, but investor messaging to be way too conservative. If you look at how $NVDA CEO describes CPO, Jensen states scale up is increasing optical volumes by 15x. $LITE and $COHR are quantifying that by describing $5-$20B agreements spanning 3-5 years out. Having this question, and not talking about Ayar, O-Net, Poet, or ELS partnerships. Then redirecting the question to near term pluggables seems off. The vision also needs work, “communications and sensing” semi company is very unexciting. It’s technically true, but there’s no vision being communicated on being the next $40B optical giant or what Sivers is going to be in the next 5 years that would attract long term holders. The core valuation Sivers gets is from optical opportunities, I also personally disagree that it’s helpful to loop back to former cellular relationships when talking about future $GFS volumes I disagree when you portray the company as “small” when Sivers 100m CW DFB capacity is coming online, alongside large foundry partners. Which is a material % of the world’s annual laser capacity. Investors want to hear about future economic opportunities and how you fill the gap with more qualifications during a bottleneck. Sivers has a tremendous opportunity for CPO/NPO/Pluggables but I’m afraid it’s not being communicated properly. It’s understandable here since EETimes is more technical oriented, but I hope this messaging gets communicated better in the next earnings call.

As $HUBS outlines below, ChatGPT and Claude are becoming the interface employees use to analyze data, manage deals, and take action. Over time, the frontier labs’ businesses could start to look more like Office 365. Bears may be too focused on token prices and open-source models…

@0xVoyta I am long a bit of $QQQ. Memory stocks have capped downside as they're probably going to earn well over half their market cap in the next 2 years. $NVDA and other chip stocks have a lot of air below them if earnings are revised down post 2028.

@HunterAllen4 And what keeps the Navy locked in is licensing. Only two U.S. plants hold NRC licenses to make fuel from high-enriched uranium, and both are $BWXT's, Erwin and Lynchburg. The 10-K calls Nuclear Fuel Services the sole provider of Navy fuel.

It's honestly amazing that $ZM is still in business given how awful Zoom is as a product. Then again, when your main competition is Microsoft Teams, I guess you can get away with just about anything.

What happens when GPU contracts end is one of the biggest questions in AI credit. Here are two data points: $MSFT turning off AI capacity it rented from $ORCL after declining to renew the contract. The reason? The older chips no longer fit its specs On the flip side, $ORCL says it’s renewing 4-year-old GPUs at a 20% premium to the original price.
