Feels like glass substrate timelines got pushed back at least another quarter.
- "Samsung Electro-Mechanics Delays Semiconductor Glass Substrate Investment" due to a bottleneck in customer reliability evaluations of prototypes.
At its recent second-quarter earnings presentation, less than a month later, the company revised the start of operations to 2028.
- "SKC Reportedly Pushes Glass Substrate Mass Production to 2027, Targets Final Validation by Year-end" (Trendforce), earlier last month.
TLDR:
- SKC Absolics H2 2026 -> H1 2027
- Samsung H2 2027 -> H1 2028
Not everything is always good news with timeline shifts, but glass core substrate shifts do feel imminent.
Volume ramp for some players eg. $LPK / Philoptics (161580) / E&R (8027) likely track these mass production timelines.
$SIVE is becoming impossible to ignore.
AI data centers need photonics. Photonics needs lasers. $SIVEF sits right at the chokepoint.
CPO, 1.6T, SATCOM, the pipeline is getting bigger while the market still treats Sivers like a small Swedish semiconductor company.
Bullish.
$SIVE announces a $3.4M development program with SemiNex!
For CPO, DFB laser arrays, and optical amplifiers.
Early production is targeted H2 2027 (in line with early scale up CPO timelines)
Seemed weird to me at first given product overlap, since SemiNex is a much smaller Series B company...
But then I got reminded of a less explicit version of $SPCX + Cursor relationship (derisking by working together first).
There's probably something interesting Sivers found in this company.
$NBIS insane tbh, having these great partnerships with hyper scalers, and people are still bearish…
Let’s see where we see this stock in 12 months, def higher than today.
$NBIS on its deal with Microsoft:
"To date, we’ve delivered all capacity tranches to Microsoft under the contract, including two tranches over the past month."
See a lot of negativity about memory last days, really wonder where it comes from, makes no sense at all.
Extremely bullish, especially long term, on both photonics/memory stocks like $AAOI, $LITE, $SNDK, $MU, … to name a few.
No leverage, just holding and adding on dips.
In light of the recent Michael Burry news, Jim Chanos comments, and recent FUD surrounding $NBIS heading into earnings, we have decided to fully ungate our Nebius price targets and model heading into earnings.
Our full report and model are linked in the comments.
