Lumentum HoldingsLITEBUYJul 02, 2026Stock price when the opinion was issued
As of Nov 05, 2026. Market Open.
He wouldn't be surprised if they announced on Monday a deal to buy Lumentum, which would be one of the largest tech deals ever. MRVL shares have been higher since the CEO held an analysts' meeting on Oct. 6 to announce plans to dominate the fibre (optic) portion of the data centre, with fibre inevitably replacing copper.
At the core of the idea that data centres need to scale up, out, and across. This name focuses on scaling out. Laser and optical components that move data between chips inside the data centres.
You have to listen when NVDA speaks, and it invested $2B in this name plus put in a bunch of product orders. No dividend.
Competitor to COHR. Makes the lasers for laser-based communication. Very excited about it. Very attractive on this pullback. You need to be patient until 2027-28, when the real upside in optical components comes through.
