Astera Labs stock rebounds as Mizuho sees Amazon-Nvidia deal as positive

Investing.com - Astera Labs (NASDAQ:ALAB) stock is rebounding after a 13% drop following the announcement of a new partnership between Amazon and Nvidia for NVLink on Trainium4. For deeper insights into Astera Labs ’ financial health and valuation metrics, investors can access comprehensive analysis through InvestingPro.

The steep decline was described as "an over-reaction on fast money sellers and shorts" by Mizuho’s Klein, who noted that several sell-side analysts have defended the stock, stating the Nvidia deal is actually additive with higher dollar content potential for Astera Labs in Amazon’s new Trainium 4 ASIC currently in design for 2027.

Initial market concerns centered on whether the new partnership would reduce space and dollar content for Astera’s interconnect technologies, which are UALink and PCIe based, as Amazon opens its Trainium ASIC and stock to Nvidia’s high-speed interconnect platform.

Astera Labs management has reportedly addressed investor concerns, clarifying that UALink would remain a core option for Trainium 4, and while NVLink would be offered, Astera products could still be used in these designs without being blocked out.

The company is positioned to benefit from Amazon’s capital expenditure ramp and AI expansion, as well as AMD MI450 growth next year, with its retimers, fabric switch, and new scale-up Scorpio products currently ramping up production.
