Laser shortage threatens AI data centers as Marvell and Nvidia lock up supply
Overview
Marvell agreed to buy Lumentum for $115 billion in stock, and Coherent disclosed a $20 billion, five-year supply deal for its PhotonLink platform, according to a post on X. The post's author says indium phosphide laser capacity will stay tight through 2028, which makes Applied Optoelectronics ($AAOI) and Sivers Semiconductors ($SIVE.ST) attractive bets. The report gives no independent source for the shortage claim, and the author's investment view is the author's own opinion.
