AXT is trading at $68.97 (+5.81%) after stronger-than-expected Nvidia results and $108 billion next-quarter revenue guidance lifted semiconductor sentiment.

  • The move appears sector-driven, with the Nasdaq Composite up 0.94% as investors rotate into AI optics and networking stocks.
  • Earlier earnings momentum remains supportive: record $47.6 million quarterly revenue was tied to AI data-center optical demand.
