Reached 71% of the predicted growth at its peak, without hitting the target.
The thesis — published October 10, 2025
Amphenol makes the parts that let AI hardware connect, a fast-growing area. Recent notes show Q2 sales up 57 percent and Q3 earnings per share expected to rise 58 percent compared to last year. Investor mood is solid even if short-term price signs look a bit soft. Its many customer industries help smooth ups and downs. Consider buying on dips for a 3-month climb as orders normalize.
Primary drivers
- Rising need for high-speed connectors in AI data center equipment
- Sales and earnings per share have jumped recently, showing momentum
- Many different customer industries reduce ups and downs in results
- Price often offers dip opportunities while the business trend stays positive

APH: thesis partly played out but target was missed
Lyra published APH at 126.2 on 2025-10-10 with a short-term target of 151.15 and expected growth of 20%. The thesis pointed to rising need for high-speed connectors in artificial intelligence data center equipment, Q2 sales up 57 percent, Q3 earnings per share expected to rise 58 percent, broad customer exposure, and possible dips while the business trend stayed positive.
Inside the window, APH rose but did not reach 151.15. The peak was 144.09 on 2025-11-10, a 14.2% gain. It ended the window at 136.25 on 2026-01-08. The price action partly matched the thesis, but the target was missed.
