No Spilled Milk To Cry Over: Initiating Coherent With A Buy
I think Coherent's diversified revenue streams and strategic investments in AI-driven data center optical transceivers position it for long-term growth. I'm initiating with a buy. My buy is cautious but only because the stock ran up over 130% year-to-date, and hence, a lot of the positives got factored in already. In my opinion, Coherent has more working for it than against it in terms of margin expansion targets and position in the communications market.
