Sivers Semiconductors8/10Does he own it?
He twice lists Sivers among roughly 15-16 names he says he went long on this year, a first-person long claim. But no size or weight is given, and in one tweet comparing it to a rival he states he has no open positions. The contradiction and lack of sizing keep it below a confident YES.
His thesis
He frames Sivers as a deeply mispriced merchant laser-light-source supplier for silicon photonics and co-packaged optics, the next-cycle analog to incumbents like Lumentum and Coherent. He stresses its fabless CW DFB laser model feeding Jabil's 1.6T transceivers plus Ayar, POET and others that flow into hyperscaler AI datacenters, all at a tiny market cap. He adds defense optionality via a customer acquired by a US space prime, plus a coming Nasdaq listing drawing US institutions.
How his view evolved
Started as a curiosity over the small valuation, hardened into a high-conviction thesis after the Jabil 1.6T news, then expanded to defense and Nasdaq-listing catalysts as the stock rallied; he treats pullbacks as noise in an early supercycle.
Key points
- Pitched as a critical, undervalued laser light source for CPO and silicon photonics supply chains
- Jabil 1.6T transceiver win treated as major thesis validation
- Defense and Nasdaq-listing catalysts seen as drawing US institutional buyers
