OptiCore shares were rising in early trading on the 29th. The move followed analysis that OptiCore is a beneficiary of technology that eases bottlenecks at artificial intelligence (AI) data centers.
As of 9:16 a.m. that day, OptiCore stock was trading at 2,120 won on the KOSDAQ market, up 11.05% (211 won) from the previous session. It briefly rose to the upper limit (the top end of the daily price band) right after the open.
Independent research firm ValueFinder said in a report that day that OptiCore is developing related products and services through its proprietary optical communication laser technology. OptiCore's main product is optical transceivers.
As the artificial intelligence (AI) industry grows rapidly, demand for AI data center infrastructure is also increasing.
Lee Chung-heon, an analyst at ValueFinder, said one of the key ways to resolve bottlenecks at AI data centers is likely a shift to 800G using optical transceivers and the like.
