AI infrastructure bias with AAOI, power, and memory focus

Author is broadly constructive on AI infrastructure, spanning obvious winners NVDA and AVGO, optical exposure through AAOI/LITE/IQE, data-center power via ETN/VRT, and MU. Distinctive tilt is toward second-order AI beneficiaries while still arguing the largest quality names remain relevant. No explicit late-week flip is visible, but they disclosed adding ETN and stayed cautious on AMPG controls and dilution.

Direction this week

No explicit flip, fade, or intensification is directly evidenced in the provided signals. Concentration sits in AI infrastructure, especially AAOI-related optical work, NVDA/AVGO quality winners, MU, and the newly disclosed ETN addition to the power basket. Pump-risk is highest where single-name coverage dominates, especially AAOI and MU, while AMPG is the lone bearish caution on controls and dilution.

Grade is our human read-worthiness rating; trader score is a rolling 20-bet hit-rate/alpha composite — different things, often disagreeing. “Since then” is direction-unaware in the table; the summary line above adjusts for which way they leaned.
