On August 6, Coherent declined 4.1% in regular trading, trading at approximately $314.09 per share, with turnover of $103 million.
The stock had surged over 15% since August 4, when reports emerged that the U.S. Federal Communications Commission is drafting measures to ban imports of new Chinese optical transceiver modules to protect AI data center critical infrastructure. The rapid rally accumulated significant short-term profit-taking pressure, which intensified during the session. The broader Electronic Components sector traded weak, with peers Corning down 2.49% and Vishay Intertechnology down 3.98%.
Coherent is scheduled to release its fourth fiscal quarter results on August 12.
