The author expresses strong bullish conviction on Sivers Semiconductors ($SIVE) and Applie
The author expresses strong bullish conviction on Sivers Semiconductors ($SIVE) and Applied Optoelectronics ($AAOI), framing price drops as buying opportunities. Key points: $SIVE is a laser bottleneck for multiple hyperscaler supply chains (CPO, NVLink, 1.6T pluggables) with ~60% gross margins and NASDAQ listing catalysts; $AAOI has massive revenue projections ($471M/month by H1 2027) and potential hyperscaler LTAs. Warns against short-seller noise and Swedish media bearishness.
“oh i think u misunderstand... I'm actually more bullish than ever as prices go down. $SIVE at ~$1.9B MC you have: - $GFS reference laser - laser for Ayar and others in $NVDA NVLink ecosystem for CPO scale up - $POET and others for CPO scale out - $JBL and others for 1.6T+ pluggable optical transcivers - O-Net for ELS mass production So you have all these hyperscaler suppliers trying to create as much as possible with Sivers as the laser bottleneck... And it's just a matter of how much Win Semi + others partners can make, with $SIVE receiving ~60% gross margins + optionality to TAM expand downward. The 15% recent share expansion that Swedish media have been bearposting is for NASDAQ listing float + M&A (and it's authorization). You just have potential short sellers running illegal bot farms, Swedish media bearposting a company Swedish exchange, on top of a general macro drop. The ~$140M convertible note is real, but it's pennies to US institutions. We'll likely see more institutional ownership when data comes out. But this is also why it's good for $SIVE to prioritize NASDAQ listing so they don't need to deal with this noise and local media. With $AAOI at $10B, you have: - A end-to-end US laser/design/assembly player projecting $471m month revenue H1 entering H2 2027. - With other hyperscalers like $AMD apparently discussing LTAs. And they probably are sitting on a ton of cash after running ~$1.4B in ATMs (400M + 400m+ 600m). Kinda all that needs to be said with those insane revenue projections as long as management doesn't BS. This just reminds me of when $NBIS crashed to $70 last year even while projecting $7-9B ARR, and as timelines got closer it recovered to $250+. Feels like dejavu. I'm just waiting for both volume ramps to hit. Photonics are generally more volatile than the rest.”Original post:X / @aleabitoreddit ↗

Author explicitly states bullishness, citing Sivers as the laser bottleneck for multiple hyperscaler ecosystem suppliers (GFS reference laser, Ayar for NVLink CPO, POET for CPO scale out, Jabil for 1.6T pluggables, O-Net for ELS mass production). Expects ~60% gross margins, NASDAQ listing catalyst, and eventual institutional ownership despite near-term noise.
