On Thursday, August 27th, NVIDIA's earnings report ignited the compute hardware sector, with optical module and CPO leaders powering ahead. Tianfu Communication closed up over 5%, Eoptolink Technology gained 2.59%, and Zhongji Innolight finished 1.79% higher. The high-optical ChiNext AI ETF (159363) benchmark index rallied strongly in tandem, closing up 3.96% on the day, while on-exchange trading activity continued to climb, keeping capital attention and market heat elevated.
On the news front, NVIDIA's fiscal 2027 Q2 results comprehensively beat expectations, with revenue hitting $96.2 billion, a 106% year-over-year surge, and Q3 guidance also exceeding forecasts. The company unprecedentedly provided early guidance for approximately 70% revenue growth in fiscal 2028, far surpassing the market's expected 45%, with management explicitly stating that supply remains the biggest bottleneck. Meanwhile, the Vera Rubin platform has entered full production and begun shipping, expected to contribute roughly 20% of data center revenue in Q3, underscoring that robust compute demand remains intact.
Mapping this to A-shares, the beneficiary logic for overseas compute supply chain players like optical module makers may be twofold. First, NVIDIA's substantial upward revision to long-term revenue guidance and its explicit supply bottleneck strengthen expectations for sustained capital expenditure in compute infrastructure. The expansion of AI cluster scale imposes higher demands on inter-node interconnection efficiency, accelerating the penetration of high-speed optical interconnect solutions. The optical module industry is deeply tied to GPU iteration cycles, and its prosperity correlation is becoming increasingly tight. A-share optical module leaders, as core links in the global compute supply chain, are poised to continue benefiting from overseas demand spillover.
Second, with Vera Rubin now in full production, its leap in compute density raises the bar for bandwidth requirements in Scale-Up network interconnection. The associated high-speed optical modules and interconnect solutions face structural upward shifts in both configuration ratios and speed tiers. Leading optical module manufacturers deeply embedded in the new platform's supply chain are likely to see a repricing of product value. A-share optical module leaders such as Zhongji Innolight, Eoptolink Technology, and Tianfu Communication occupy critical positions in overseas supply chains, with promising earnings elasticity.
For investors positioning along the high-optical theme, attention may be directed toward the ChiNext AI ETF Huabao (159363) and its off-exchange feeder funds (Class A 023407, Class C 023408), which focus on optical module and CPO leaders while also covering AI applications. The benchmark index holds a nearly 40% combined weight in Zhongji Innolight, Eoptolink Technology, and Tianfu Communication, making it a core flag-bearer for AI compute. Data sources include the Shanghai and Shenzhen stock exchanges and Wind. As of August 21, 2026, based on Guozheng Index data, the top three constituents of the ChiNext AI Index are Eoptolink Technology (13.77% weight), Zhongji Innolight (13.17%), and Tianfu Communication (10.56%).
