4 under-the-radar AI infrastructure plays to watch
In 1 year, $SanDisk Corp.(SNDK)$ spiked from $27 to $1400+ for 5200%. Memory is the bottleneck of AI right now, but soon it will be photonics and energy. Here's 4 other bottlenecks of AI that is undervalued: 🔵 $POET Technologies Inc(POET)$ — Optical Interconnects Light replaces copper inside AI clusters. Marvell order live, 30k+ engines shipping in 2026. Target: $40 🔵 $Lightwave Logic, Inc.(LWLG)$ — Polymer Photonics Their Perkinamine tech outperforms silicon at moving data between chips. Stage 3 commercialization just started. Target: $42 🔵 $Cipher Mining Inc.(CIFR)$ — AI Power Infrastructure $9.3B in contracted leases
AI Infrastructure’s Next Wave: 20 Stocks Chasing the “Next AMD” Opportunity
10 years ago, $Advanced Micro Devices(AMD)$ was trading at $2 and up 21500% now. AMD was losing money, but their technology was powerful. 20 stocks with same set-up as AMD (price target 1 year from now): 1. $SUPER MICRO COMPUTER INC(SMCI)$ (~$35) Full-rack liquid-cooled AI GPU servers shipped direct to data centers at scale. PT: $70 2. $APPLIED DIGITAL CORP(APLD)$ (~$40) Building AI factory campuses for hyperscalers just signed a $7.5B lease. PT: $120 3. $Viavi Solutions(VIAV)$ (~$54) Tests and validates every optical AI data center link before it goes live. PT: $200 4. $SoundHound A

S&P Will Hit 8,000 — But Anthropic Will Decide the Outcome
$SPY$ S&P 8,000 isn't just a random headline. It's backed by recent positioning — a number of far-dated call options at the 800 strike have seen significant volume: $SPY 20270319 800.0 CALL$ $SPY 20260930 800.0 CALL$ $SPY 20270617 800.0 CALL$ These were opened at different times: early April, mid-April, and just a couple of days ago. Looking at the expirations, no one expects this to happen overnight — Q3 at the earliest. But at this pace, I wouldn't be surprised if SPY hits 800 by June. The catalyst behind this surge is simple — and I've mentioned it before: Anthropic's revenue da
AMD/Intel New High Again! CPU & Memory Surges: Which Side Do You Pick?
$Advanced Micro Devices(AMD)$ surged +16.5% after-hours to above $400. $INTC$ jumped +17.6% yesterday. Same week: $SanDisk Corp.(SNDK)$ printed 78.4% gross margins, and $Micron Technology(MU)$ 's CEO called memory a "strategic asset for AI." Two AI infrastructure plays are flying simultaneously — CPUs and memory. Which one runs further?1. CPU Story: Demand Is Structurally ShiftingAI has moved from training to inference + agentic AI. That shift benefits more than just GPUs.$AMD$ Q1 Data Center: $5.8B (+48% YoY). Q2 guidance: $11.2B revenue (+46% YoY). Lisa Su was explicit: inference and agentic AI demand for high-performance CPUs and accelerators is "accelerating." E
