Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Reached 50% of the predicted growth at its peak, without hitting the target.
The thesis — published July 9, 2025
Arm’s share price has fallen 28% since March and now looks extremely oversold, a condition that often comes before a bounce. Investor optimism stays very high (score 98) because the number of data-center customers has jumped 14 times to 70 000 and newer v9 chips earn fatter fees. However, some price signals still point downward, so a move back to $165-$170 within 90 days is only possible, not certain, which is why the stock belongs on a watch list.
Primary drivers
- 14x more data-center clients could greatly enlarge future royalty checks.
- Stock looks extremely oversold, raising chances of a short-term bounce.
- Strong optimism (score 98) suggests fewer investors are eager to sell.
- Share lock-up period has passed, reducing extra shares hitting the market.
How it played out
ARM: target missed despite a short bounce
Lyra published ARM at $148.38 on 2025-07-09. The thesis expected 25% growth and pointed to an oversold setup after a 28% fall since March. It also pointed to investor optimism at 98, 14x more data-center clients to 70 000, richer fees from newer v9 chips, and the passed lock-up period.
Inside the window, ARM rose to $166.88 on 2025-07-28, a 12.5% peak gain. That stayed below the $185.47 target. It never got there. The stock ended the window at $159.35 on 2025-10-07. The thesis partly played out, but the target was missed.
