Stock Track | Corning Soars 5.95% in Pre-Market on Target Price Upgrades and Oversold Rebound

Stock Track
Jul 09

Corning's stock surged 5.95% in pre-market trading on Thursday, extending its recovery momentum from the prior session.

The sharp rise follows BofA Securities raising its target price on Corning from $223 to $243 while maintaining an overweight rating. The bank cited expectations that the company's Optical Communications segment will drive second-quarter revenue and earnings per share at or above guidance, with a stronger growth outlook for the second half remaining intact. This upgrade comes after Mizuho previously raised its target price to $270, providing further valuation support for the stock.

The current rebound reflects technical oversold conditions and bargain-hunting flows after Corning's stock had declined over 18% in early July. That previous drop was driven by market concerns that Meta's plan to sell excess AI computing capacity could lead cloud providers to cut optical communications capital expenditures. The market is now closely watching Corning's upcoming second-quarter earnings release for validation of the sustainability of AI fiber demand.
