On the news front, the optical communications sector had undergone a continuous correction since July 10, with Coherent's stock price retreating over 21% from the $332 region. The current rebound exhibits characteristics of an oversold technical recovery. Additionally, the company secured a $50 million CHIPS Act subsidy to expand its indium phosphide production capacity, while AI data center demand for high-speed optical communications continues to expand, providing medium-term support for sector fundamentals. Multiple institutions have previously raised Coherent's target price to the $392-435 range, with fundamental expectations remaining intact despite the short-term pullback.
