On May 26, Lumentum Holdings rose 3.5% overnight, trading at $968.94/share, with trading volume of approximately $2.67 million. The gain extends a technical rebound that began in late May following a steep multi-day correction driven by profit-taking after the stock's inclusion in the Nasdaq 100 index.
On the news front, analysts have maintained their buy rating on the stock with a price target of $1,186, reflecting continued bullish sentiment toward the company's positioning in the AI data center high-speed optical interconnect market. The stock had previously corrected from elevated levels as investors locked in gains post-index inclusion, with shares falling over 3% across multiple sessions before rebounding sharply.
Lumentum remains a core supplier in the 800G/1.6T optical communications upgrade cycle, with its InP-based EML laser chips and high-speed transceivers serving as critical components for hyperscale data center buildouts. The company's Cloud & Networking segment now accounts for approximately 75% of revenue, underpinning its role as a primary beneficiary of AI infrastructure spending.
Within the Communication Equipment sector, Nokia Oyj up 3.43%, Ciena up 3.09%, Applied Optoelectronics up 2.76%, Cisco up 0.68%, Arista Networks up 0.36%.
