On July 22, Coherent declined 3.13% overnight, trading at 307.21 USD/share, with turnover of 6.1069 million USD.

On the news front, Coherent surged over 11% in the previous session, driven by a broad rebound in optical communication stocks and the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index soaring over 5%. Market strategists noted that investors rushed to add semiconductor positions ahead of earnings season due to fear of missing out (FOMO), but cautioned that when stocks rally sharply before earnings, further upside becomes increasingly difficult, prompting partial profit-taking in after-hours trading.

The stock had previously declined over 21% from its July 10 high near the $332 area before entering an oversold recovery phase. The outsized single-day gain triggered a technical retracement. Fundamentally, the company secured a $50 million CHIPS Act subsidy to expand indium phosphide capacity, and institutional targets remain in the $392-$435 range, with BNP Paribas recently raising its target to $415 while maintaining an Outperform rating.
