Burn-in testing puts chips through demanding conditions to help identify devices likely to fail early in use. Aehr Test Systems ($AEHR) supplies wafer-level burn-in systems. Cohu ($COHU) supplies equipment for other semiconductor tests. This testing becomes more valuable as manufacturers combine more chips into expensive packages and systems. One weak component can cause problems for an assembly worth far more than the chip itself. Finding that weakness before the equipment reaches a customer can therefore justify spending more on testing, because the failure can affect the larger assembly.

$LITE standalone would likely be up on earnings after their new $5B CPO/NPO announcement (separate from $NVDA). The margins on that are likely 60%+… which shows how profitable laser players would be at scale. (Greensboro alone would be $5B revenue/year) In terms of the $MRVL deal: - Extremely positive for Marvell strategically. Also makes remaining laser players very valuable - $LITE shareholders can cry though about the 1+ year overhang until deal goes through in 2028. There’s less independent price discovery as well since a lot of it will be pegged around 4.5 Marvell shares : 1 - I think Lumentum shareholders probably would be happier if Marvell shares didn’t crash before the deal was announced.. since it was originally valuing $LITE at $115B with a 23.9% premium. - Marvell dropping does show the downside of the deal straight away though, if it rose then $LITE shareholders might be a tad happier given valuation. Having a fixed dollar MC value floor probably would have been better than the 4.5x:1 ratio. There was a lot of long $LITE, short ___ pressuring other photonics valuations, so at least those trade pairs might unwind now

The Anthropic S1/A should ease concerns over the risk of Anthropic backlog exposure for $AMZN $GOOG $AVGO: +$132B of cash and investments +$82B of undrawn loans +$50B run-rate revenue less non-compute cash costs +$100B IPO proceeds Against that, they must fund: -$70B compute due in the NTM, and -$447B over the next 4yrs. If Anthropic revenue is flat from here, they could still amply fund opex and compute commits in the next 4yrs with ~$60-70B to spare.
