-12.35%open $595.40

A 12.35% drop to $521.85 from a $595.40 open erases roughly $6 billion from one of the most heavily owned AI optics names. Moves this size are rare here, and no company announcement explains it yet.

-12.20%open $800.12

The 12.2% drop lands the same day Lumentum posted a Q1 FY2027 earnings beat alongside a no-premium Marvell deal, putting the merger terms in front of the results for holders. Moves this size are rare for a $63.6 billion name.

IDEXX Laboratories opened 16.33% higher, the largest single move across a 380-stock priority universe today. Lumentum anchors the other end, with Oracle and Marvell also lower.

Management is framing the $115 billion all-stock Lumentum deal as a top-five AI silicon franchise, which sets the bar both stocks will be judged against after their selloff on the announcement.
