Lumentum: Play the Optical Bottleneck - A Supply-Chain Reprice Trade

Lumentum (LITE) sits squarely at the optical bottleneck for AI networking. Fundamentals and recent order flows point to continued tightness in high-end optics; the market still prices much of the company as a pure-growth, science play.
