Analyst qinbafrank has published a research note comparing two leading U.S. optical interconnect sector stocks, Coherent (COHR) and Lumentum (LITE), noting their positioning differences underpin distinct investment theses. Coherent is the scale and platform leader in the U.S. photonics industry, with strengths including scale, product breadth, manufacturing platforms, long-term technology stacks, and customer coverage. Lumentum, by contrast, is a leader with higher profit density and earnings flexibility within the AI optics value pool, outperforming Coherent in growth rate, gross margin, operating leverage, current-period operational quality, and net liquidity. The size gap between the two leaders is narrowing rapidly: Coherent’s full fiscal 2026 revenue stood at 2.36 times Lumentum’s, a figure that fell to 2.03 times in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026, and the midpoint of fiscal 2027 first-quarter guidance further narrows this gap to 1.84 times. Calculated using the midpoint of the upcoming quarter’s guidance, Coherent’s revenue is approximately 1.84 times Lumentum’s, but its implied non-GAAP operating profit is only around 1.04 times. For the quarter where Coherent’s revenue was ~2.03 times Lumentum’s, it generated just ~1.62 times Lumentum’s non-GAAP gross profit, 1.21 times operating profit, and 1.08 times net profit. This comparison clearly demonstrates that Lumentum is significantly superior to Coherent in profit quality and operating leverage, while the gap in revenue and profit scale between the two is shrinking rapidly.

CryptoQuant analyst Axel Adler Jr. noted in a recent post that the 30-day moving average of Bitcoin’s average coin dormancy period has climbed to 19 days, marking the first time since the start of the year that it has crossed above the 365-day moving average. Previously hoarded BTC is becoming active again. However, following the Coldcard hack incident, this uptick may not stem from selling, but rather from large volumes of BTC being transferred to new wallets. As such, the current rise in dormancy should not be automatically interpreted as long-term holders distributing their holdings.

Citigroup has raised the target price for AI and cloud computing services provider Nebius from $278 to $324, and increased Coreweave's target price from $142 to $159.

According to the latest compiled data on current accounts and earn products of major centralized exchanges (CEXs), stablecoin current yields on platforms including HTX, Binance, OKX, and Bitget still follow a structure of "high yields for small amounts, tiered reductions for excess amounts". Among these, yields for small tiers of USDT, USDC, and Binance U products are relatively prominent. For USDT: HTX offers an annualized yield of 10% for the 0-200 USDT tier, which drops to 1.95% for amounts exceeding 200 USDT; Bitget’s 0-300 USDT tier yields 6.59%, with excess amounts at 1.93%; Binance’s 0-200 USDT tier yields 4.83%, while excess amounts stand at 1.83%; OKX’s USDT yield is 1.94%. For USDC: HTX’s 0-200 USDC tier has an annualized yield of 8%, and amounts over 200 USDC yield 2.75%; Bitget’s 0-300 USDC tier yields 6.66%, with excess amounts at 1.84%; OKX’s is 2.18%; Binance’s is 2.16%. For other stablecoins: HTX’s USDT VIP tier offers an annualized yield of 6%-9%, applicable for amounts between 50,000 and 100,000 USDT; Bitget’s USDT VIP 0-300,000 tier yields 2.38%, with excess amounts at 2.06%. USDE’s displayed annualized yields on HTX and Bitget are tiered at 5% and 3% respectively, with excess amounts at 1.00%; HTX’s USDD yields 4.00%; Binance U’s 0-8,000 tier has an annualized yield of 8.57%, falling to 0.57% for excess amounts. Overall, current high stablecoin yields on major CEXs remain concentrated in small amounts, with yields for large funds generally lower. When comparing related products, users should pay attention not only to the nominal annualized yield, but also to tier limits, interest calculation rules, supported currencies, and the real-time availability of the products. The above data are platform-displayed yields and do not constitute investment advice.
