Artificial intelligence has no shortage of obstacles. The industry is scrambling to secure enough electricity to power new data centers, enough land to build them, and enough high-bandwidth memory (HBM) to keep next-generation chips fed with data. Yet another constraint is emerging that could prove just as important: moving information between those chips fast enough ... These 7 Stocks Will Solve AI’s Most Important Bottleneck
CEO Wendell Weeks remembers the dot-com crash and other hard times, and those lessons have taught him to hedge even the most optimistic data-center bets.
Amazon.com said it entered a multibillion-dollar agreement with Corning to get optical fiber, cable and connectivity solutions to support its growing data center footprint.
Amazon said on Monday it has signed a multi-billion-dollar deal with specialty glass maker Corning aimed at boosting U.S. production of optical fiber and connectivity products that are used in data centers. Amazon, however, did not disclose any further financial details on the partnership. Shares of Corning rose about 7% in early trading, as the partnership came as a fresh boost to the company's fast-growing fiber optics unit, at a time when weak consumer electronics demand has weighed on the segment that makes Gorilla glass.
The fear of higher rates slowing the debt-fueled AI buildout is battering shares in firms across the data-center supply chain. Companies ranging from construction firms to fiber-optic cable manufacturers to cooling specialists are down: Contractor Sterling Infrastructure and fiber provider Corning slid more than 10%.
Huang's remarks crystallized a hierarchy that Wall Street is now pricing in aggressively. "We should use copper as much as we can, for as long as we can, but copper has its limits," he said. "The right strategy is to scale up with copper as long as you can — after that you scale up further with optics, you scale out with optics and you scale across with optics. So you use optics wherever you must, you use copper wherever you can."

Nvidia has paid several billion dollars to help fund new factories for glassmaker Corning in addition to taking an equity stake of up to $3.2 billion disclosed earlier this week, the CEOs of the two companies confirmed on Thursday. Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said the AI chip supplier has made "a multi-billion-dollar prepayment" that was not disclosed when it announced an equity investment earlier this week in Corning, whose glass is used in the fiber-optic cables that connect computers in massive data centers. "It's going to create thousands of jobs," Huang said.
Coherent reported quarterly earnings that were in-line with Wall Street’s expectations, with gross margins increasing slightly. The optical networking company is benefiting from the artificial intelligence data center boom—but shares fell anyway. Coherent posted adjusted earnings of $1.41 a share for the fiscal third-quarter, compared to 91 cents a year ago and Wall Street’s $1.40 a share prediction.
Corning and Nvidia said on Wednesday they would partner to expand U.S. production of optical connectivity products used in artificial intelligence data centers. The specialty glass maker also raised its long-term sales targets on surging demand for AI infrastructure. The deal shows how the AI boom is lifting demand beyond chips, benefiting suppliers such as Corning that make the fiber-optic equipment needed to move data between thousands of processors in large data centers.
Shares in Corning are trading nearly 20% higher premarket after Nvidia said it would invest $500 million in the glassmaker. The injection is part of a partnership to expand manufacturing of fiber optics, which are used in AI data centers to transfer data quickly and at scale. Demand for fiber optics has supercharged Corning stock in recent months.
