Fujikura's Trading Range Widened After Two-Day Limit-Up Rally on AI Fiber Demand
Published on 06/23/2026 at 05:52 | Redaktion boerse-global.de
The Tokyo Stock Exchange is stepping in to contain the chaos around Fujikura shares. After the stock hit its daily trading limit for the second consecutive session, the exchange will expand the allowable price band from June 23, widening the range to between 5,161 yen and 10,165 yen. The shares closed Monday at 6,161 yen, already pushing against the upper bound.
The trigger for the frenzy: a blockbuster profit upgrade that caught the market off guard. Fujikura now expects net profit of 229 billion yen for the fiscal year ending March 2027 — a 47 percent jump from its prior outlook. Operating profit is forecast to reach 310 billion yen, also up 47 percent, while revenue is seen climbing to 1.46 trillion yen. Chief executive Naoki Okada confirmed the company is experiencing a surge in orders from nearly all major US cloud providers, with Fujikura successfully pushing through higher prices on its fiber optic cables as supply of specialized components tightens.
Investors have stampeded into the stock. In European trading, the shares closed at €38.03, a single-day gain of 22.28 percent. Over the past week, the advance stands at 59.84 percent, and on a monthly basis the stock has climbed 23 percent. The annualized volatility has soared to 160 percent, reflecting the breakneck pace of the rally.
Should investors sell immediately? Or is it worth buying Fujikura?
The broader market is riding the same wave. The Nikkei 225 closed above 72,000 points for the first time on June 22, propelled by the technology sector. Japan's government is preparing a massive spending package of 10.5 trillion yen — around $65 billion — for physical AI infrastructure through 2040, part of a 370 trillion yen allocation across 17 strategic sectors. Rivals such as Fanuc and Yaskawa Electric have also rallied alongside Fujikura.
But the speed of the advance has embedded sky-high expectations. Since its most recent low, Fujikura has surged roughly 58.5 percent. The market is betting that the company can translate the global data center buildout into sustained revenue growth. Whether reality catches up with the price will be decided in the coming quarterly reports.
