The ten lines

  1. 1

    UP IREN Limited

    IREN

    IREN trades up 18.96% to 39.99 by midday, the sharpest gain on the tape today. No specific catalyst is supplied in the facts, but the move is outsized relative to the broader crypto-adjacent complex.

  2. 2

    UP Lumentum Holdings

    LITE

    LITE adds 8.02%, reaching 791.60 by midday. The move fits the broader photonics and optical networking bid running alongside the semi rally.

    CRDO

    CRDO rises 7.97% to 218.84, tracking the high-speed connectivity theme that is lifting semis broadly today. Small-cap and fabless semi proxies are both up nearly 2% on the session, providing a supportive backdrop.
