Just an FYI: I don't need to post something every day about the names I own. However, I did miss this with Shunsin (6451): Foxconn picked by $NVDA as exclusive rack-scale supplier for Groq accelerator. This is highly positive for Shunsin (Foxconn's optical packing arm). So ShunSin's CPO and optical packaging basically backdoored Nvidia's next-gen supply chain with this news. Markets just haven't realized this connection yet (and it's on disposition, so frozen for most). The article explicitly notes that Foxconn is integrating these systems "including ... networking." Bc Foxconn is the exclusive assembler, they'll vertically integrate and likely use ShunSin's optical packaging solutions into the design, bypassing ShunSin's need for networking contract directly from Nvidia. This is what I meant by Shunsin is literally a free piggy back ride to $NVDA CPO ecosystem. Foxconn is massive. And you're getting the leading player in Nvidia's optical supply chain for a lower valuation than $LWLG lol.
I think what we're learning right now is that the hyperscaler analysts have no idea how to model capex & the semiconductor guys have better visibility, and the "mystery" gap between $NVDA $AVGO ests. & hyper capex ests. is as simple as that.
