On July 21, Applied Optoelectronics rose 5.32% in pre-market trading, trading at $108.34/share, with turnover of $2.6425 million.

On the news front, the optical communication sector staged a collective rebound after experiencing consecutive days of deep correction, with the broader industry recovery trend continuing. Among sector peers, Lumentum rose 4.37%, Nokia rose 3.47%, Ondas Holdings rose 3.35%, and Arista Networks gained 2.16%, reflecting broad-based sector upward momentum.

The stock had previously plunged over 30% from its highs during July 13-17, following a surge driven by AI computing power tailwinds on July 9. The sustained selloff fully released short-term oversold pressure, setting the stage for the current technical recovery. Multiple sector constituents saw similar patterns of profit-taking exhaustion followed by coordinated rebounds.
