Apparently, Korean Beauty was where all the alpha is.
APR (278470.KS) is up 529% over the past 2Y, wildly outperforming both $NVDA and $INTC.
Every female I know talks about their "Medicube" stick, then buying products... where you put a whole salmon's family tree on your face for better skin.
The world's female population creates a bigger structural demand than hyperscalers for memory or lasers? Should have known...

He wouldn't have build a $1T company without pulling off all those moves.
- Gets funding from Elon -> Pisses off $TSLA going independent
- Gets funding from $MSFT -> Pisses of Microsoft by diluting them with other hyperscaler funding
- Gets funding from $NVDA -> Builds their competing chip and funds Cerebras competitors for inference
- Works with $AAPL on Apple Intelligence? -> Create their competing devices.
- Potential lack of funding? -> Sign a lot of LTAs so the entire industry lives or dies off OpenAI succeeding.
Whatever he's doing is working lol.

Contrarian take, but Sam Altman / OpenAI is doing something right if he's pissing off every Mag7 like $AAPL.
By building their own ecosystem instead of being sucked into another.
It's been awhile since $GOOGL, Apple, Microsoft, and others had some genuine disruptors.

@siflower Itβs architecture neutral. UHP output can be achieved with a single cw laser or multi emitter cw dfb array which is what $SIVE is doing for CPO.
Since the latter aggregate output is comparable.

Regarding $AMZN RNG + OpenAIβs MRC and VCSELs.
In what appears to be an indirect response on B. Riley's $AAOI sell report regarding optimizations that "flattens networks and cuts transceiver TAM 40-50%".
Rosenblatt TLDR: They've already modeled for this, even though each XPU may use fewer transceivers.
The number of XPUs is growing so quickly that total optical demand should still rise.
On lasers architectures for CPO: VCSELs are useful as a credible bridge for NPO/short reach.
Ideal architecture though for CPO is UHP CW over other lasers, and cites Broadcom for that statements. Which happens to supports my core $SIVE thesis.
I feel like Rosenblatt and I share the same views on a lot of things, I like the way they roll.
$AMZN$AAOI$SIVE$AVGO
Rosenblatt on recent optical sector weakness from $AAOI to $LITE:
"Stocks in the Optical sector have traded poorly for the last 1-2 months" due to CPO delay reports and China capacity scares.
"We think short sellers... do not actually strongly believe in the thesis."
Multiple short sellers told them they will likely close their positions... late July and early August. Further, they say they plan to buy Optical stocks in 2027 for the scale up CPO opportunity.
Hilarious report on laser weakness, read is very positive for $SIVEF, $COHR, and others moving forward.
I've been long on CPO sector, but seems like institutions want entry points, just a bit later on.

@yuntungshieh Hmm, maybe the influx of US buying pressure might have have a structural impact though?
But I'm sure that's probably the case with a premium as seen with $TSM.

@2147gp Yep I'm very excited for the $SIVE US listing. Majority of people can't access it on small Swedish exchanges.

Sk Hynix is now trading under $SKHYV!
It's now up an insane 16%.
I wonder how Sk Hynix over in Korea is going to react on Monday. https://t.co/Mmqdu0poVY https://t.co/6i8x9JafGy

$SKHYV
Why do I have this weird feeling the main reason retail is excited SK Hynix NASDAQ listing.
Is because they can do degen option calls instead of individual stock purchases.
Mitsubishi Motors joins robotics race to deploy humanoid workers by 2027.
Pairing with Highlanders, a Japanese robotics company.
- Agility $CCXI x Foxconn, Toyota
- Apptronik x $JBL, Mercedes
- Highlanders x Mitsubishi
- Figure Γ BMW
- Boston Dynamics x Hyundai (subsidiaries)
- Optimus x Tesla (Internal)
- Rainbow Robotics x Samsung (subsidiaries)
Idk if it's just me of there's a lot of patterns with humanoid companies playing buddy-buddy up with a major auto player/manufacturer.
If they're not already vertically integrated by one already.
Then the Chinese players like UBTech/AgiBot/Unitree don't seem to care and work with a wide variety of auto players in China.
Curious how this trend plays out...
$CCXI$JBL$TSLA$TM
I blocked them since they're known for spreading disinformation.
Especially after it was exposed around their short seller activity, that there were marketing accounts telling people to sell. These accounts had histories of promoting the same Asian crypto launches.
- They spread defamation like saying I used AI to fabricate reports on CW laser LTAs from $AMD, despite the report coming directly from Trendforce.
Then they tried to hide references to the actual source after they were proven wrong.
- I didn't sell a good chunk of my $SIVE position, I own 1M+ shares (not USD) as one of the largest individual shareholders.
Don't see a reason to exit my position since I'm trying to own as much as possible before 1.6T pluggables and CPO architectural inflections hit.
Better not to give malicious accounts additional views.

@UNICONTSLA On the $AAOI chart, we're able to see the "Sleeping King" indicator.
You can see the crown form from the chopping patterns.
But once the king wakes up from their nap... chart fundamentals expect a royal decree.
$AAOI
The "Mythical Golden Egg Dragon Candle" predicted the $SIVE rally today.
If you look at the Golden Egg hatching indicator I drew, you can tell it predicts Sivers CEO buying on the open market a day later.

$SIVE
Yep, itβs interesting to witness retail capitulation.
After we got Bloomberg Meta compute article cleared up by their internal memo.
And the 2 reports on delays were denied by Nvidia.
Both of which caused the selloff in the first place...
So Photonics / Nvidiaβs roadmap hasnβt fundamentally changed:
$LITE is still completely sold out for the next 2 years and likely into 2029.
$SIVE is about to volume ramp with GlobalFoundries, Jabil, Poet, Ayar, and other hyperscaler suppliers.
$TSM COUPE and their TW suppliers from Shunsin to Foci arenβt randomly disappearing into the void.
$AAOI and their $471m/month h2 2027 revenue projections havenβt changed.
$IQE and their epiwafer contracts with Macom and Tower Semi havenβt disappeared.
$AXTI ownership of 40% of the InP substrate supply chains havenβt suddenly disappeared.
As with any theme from Rocketlab + Space sector 50% drop back in 2025.
Or Nebius + Neocloud 50% drop entering 2026.
Or the Samsung/SK Hynix crash from Iran War LNG/Helium/Oil fears few months ago.
Volatility from indiscriminate thematic selloffs isnβt typically representative of individual company fundamentals.
Retail tends to build conviction over price movements and imaginary charts, then lose that when a stock drops.
And institutions are probably placing limit orders to capitalize on that.
Conviction shouldnβt be tied to the quote of a stock on a certain day, but long term revenue or operating income growth.

It's nuanced, IMO:
- $TSLA has the clearest path to close the gap between US/China in mass production. But to get this done, majority of components seem sourced from China?
- $CCXI right now has a RoboFab for 10K+ units/year, and 75%+ of components sourced from the US.
So they're probably the leader in terms of Made in America supply chains + commercialization. But can't get to China scale yet through just US supply chains.
Figure is probably the other one with 12,000 target capacity, but can't comment much since their supply chain visibility isn't very public. I don't consider Hyundai/Boston Dynamics to be very American anymore so didn't include them.

"China is shipping ~90% of the world's humanoid robots. We cannot keep taking them lightly."
Elon's comment: "For now"
Meanwhile, 1X today posts a video of the most advanced humanoid hand.
Looks like the inflection point for American humanoid programs is here?
Both technologically with players like 1X and with mass production with $TSLA?
I'm am personally long on Agility through $CCXI targeting commercialization with Amazon and others.
But I'm proud to see American robotics as a whole go brrrr.

$SIVE US NASDAQ listing is more for:
- Fundraising (most important thing) to acquire IP + TAM expansion and make each laser they sell more valuable. Following what $LITE did (eg. Cloud Light acquisition) from just selling lasers.
- Also it helps bridge valuation gaps, since I see it as undervalued relative to laser peers that are all in the tens of billions.
Rather than near term revenue/partnerships.
$SIVE$LITE
Three new $SIVE insider purchases today.
Most notably: $SIVEF CEO Vikram bought 1,000,000 SEK worth of shares on the open market today.
This is following the massive drop on Sivers stock following 2 misleading CPO delay reports, Meta Compute headlines, and another insider sale report from another photonics director.
Typically, insider sells for any number of reasons. But having the CEO buy on the open-market is the clearest signal in management confidence.
Following $GFS, $JBL, and other laser supplier partnerships, and his goal of NASDAQ listing in the near term.
Feels like the CEO sees a clear potential for Sivers to become the next photonics giant (myself included).

Nothing like an internal $META memo getting published.
Showing AI ramping as usual:
- LTAs signed with Samsung and $SNDK for memory
- LTAs signed with Sumitomo Electric for fiber optics
- Expected to deploy 7GW compute infra this year, and doubling in 2027.
- as much as $145B capex spend this year

Wow, looks like Elon + xAI at $SPCX managed to build an Anthropic Opus-level LLM with Grok 4.5.
Thatβs much more cost efficient as wellβ¦
Kinda emulating what Chinese vendors have been doing to compete on pricing + adoption. (Which is an ideal thing given Chinese model growth among US companies recently)
Never doubt Elon, maybe they might end up leapfrogging Anthropic + Mythos?

I currently hold shares in the million range, so not quite sure whatβs with these accusations.
Since I believe $SIVE is one of the most important laser companies in the next optical shift⦠and has immense TAM expansion potential with IP acquisition.
