AI Data Center Infrastructure Suppliers Report Strong Growth Amid October Inflation Data
U.S. equity markets faced downward pressure on Tuesday following the release of October Consumer Price Index (CPI) data, which showed a 0.4% monthly increase for all urban consumers. Despite broader market declines in the S&P 500 and Nasdaq, companies providing physical infrastructure for AI data centers—including chip inspection tools, optical connectivity, and cooling systems—have reported significant quarterly growth. Onto Innovation (ONTO) reported record third-quarter revenue of $410 million, an 88% year-over-year increase driven by demand for advanced packaging and inspection systems. Similarly, Coherent Corp. (COHR) saw a 50% year-over-year revenue surge to $2.37 billion, benefiting from the industry transition toward optical connectivity in AI data centers. These results highlight robust demand for high-performance computing components even as macroeconomic inflation concerns weigh on major indices.
