10 NAMES ON MY RADAR RIGHT NOW
$CRDO — down post-earnings despite a clean beat. $479M revenue, $1.20 EPS, with margin/cost concerns driving the selloff. Optical revenue tracking toward $600M+ in FY27.
$MRVL — Q2 revenue $2.74B that is +37% YoY , FY28 guide raised 10% to $18B. Stock dropped on Google partnership-delay fears. Custom AI silicon thesis remains intact. Buy-the-panic setup if execution holds.
$AAOI — Revenue +86% YoY with FY26 guidance reaffirmed at $1.1B. 800G/1.6T demand is outpacing capacity. The $600M dilutive raise crushed shares , but AI optics demand remains strong.
$AXTI — Record Q2 revenue of $47.6M, driven by InP substrate demand. A small-cap AI materials/picks-and-shovels play. Extremely volatile — size accordingly.
$AVGO — Custom AI silicon + networking remains a powerful combination. Yet the stock has lagged peers, up only 6% YTD. Potentially one of the more attractive mega-cap AI compounders if growth continues.
$APP — down despite Q2 revenue +53% YoY to $1.92B and EBITDA +58%. The issue was guidance, not a collapse in fundamentals. Down sharply from the $745 ATH. Beaten-down AI ad-tech compounder worth watching.
$SPCX — SpaceX exposure, now valued around $2T. AI/xAI revenue expectations are becoming a bigger part of the story. Sept. 9 share unlock is a key overhang/catalyst to watch.
$VST — One of my favorite power plays for the AI data-center buildout. CEO bought $1.17M personally. Shares remain 24% below highs while EBITDA growth and PJM capacity tailwinds remain strong.
$INTC — Up 260%+ over the past year on the 18A ramp and Nvidia investment. Data Center/AI revenue +59% to $6.26B. Still ~30% below its 52-week high after the $15B stock sale. Turnaround is real, but entry matters.
$RKLB — Down 42% in 90 days despite Q2 revenue +62% YoY and another successful Electron launch. Neutron timing remains the key risk, with potential slippage into 2027. ARK continues buying the dip.
