Corning Inc (NYSE:GLW) stock is down 7.8% at $172.92 this afternoon, part of its larger drawdown from its June 30 record peak of $271.38.
Increased fiber densification, cloud focus and accelerated pace of 5G deployment should help the Zacks Communication - Components industry thrive despite short-term headwinds. GLW, VIAV and OOMA are well-positioned to make the most of the demand for seamless connectivity solutions.
Corning is rated a buy after a 30% drawdown, with technicals and fundamentals supporting a rebound opportunity. GLW's Q1 saw 18% core sales growth and 30% core EPS growth, led by Optical Communications and new Solar segment momentum. Major long-term deals with NVIDIA and Amazon, plus strong AI-driven demand, underpin robust EPS growth and premium valuation multiples.
