How it trades on rate days

How COHR has moved when long-dated Treasury yields rise — measured against TLT, the 20+ year Treasury fund.

  • Beta to long bonds, 1 year 0.14 — shows only a loose link to bond moves for every 1% move in TLT (20+ year Treasuries), Coherent Corp moved 0.14% on average · correlation 0.01 · higher than 12% of US names
  • Beta, last 3 months −1.86 less rate-sensitive lately than over the year
  • On the 10 worst bond days −3.53% on average against −0.72% for the S&P 500 the 10 sessions of the past year in which TLT fell most, i.e. long yields rose most
  • Latest of those days −4.68% TLT −1.32% that day 2026-11-10

Daily total returns from the adjusted price series; a TLT down day is a day long yields rose. Beta = the average move of the name for a 1% move in TLT. Past sensitivity, not a forecast. An investment diary, not a recommendation.

Company snapshot — Coherent Corp

COHR in five paragraphs: what it makes and sells, where it sits in the Closelooknet stack, who it is priced against, why we track it, what we watch. Research diary, not advice.

What it does
Coherent makes lasers, optical transceivers and related photonic components used in datacentre networking, telecoms and industrial manufacturing. Its Datacenter and Communications arm supplies transceivers, co-packaged optics, optical switches and the lasers and chips that go inside them, while its Industrial arm sells excimer, solid-state and CO2 lasers plus optical materials for chipmaking and precision manufacturing. The company was formerly known as II-VI and is headquartered in Saxonburg, Pennsylvania.
Where it sits in the stack
In our Rubin Build-Out 100 index, Coherent sits in Layer 5, Connectivity & Materials, within the High-Speed Interconnects sleeve alongside optical switching silicon and networking IP. This sleeve is the fabric that links separate GPUs into working clusters, so Coherent's transceivers and optical components are a supply constraint on how fast that fabric can be built.
Who it is priced against
Closelooknet's peer group prices Coherent against other optical-components and laser makers — Lumentum, Applied Optoelectronics, Fabrinet and Ciena — because they compete on the same transceiver and optics business. The market also weighs it against Cisco's networking hardware.
Why Closelooknet tracks it
Coherent holds a seat in the Rubin Build-Out 100 and carries a Closelooknet score, where the balance-sheet module reads strongest and capital allocation reads weakest. The diary has returned to it in a Report on optical interconnects, in a Heresy piece on portfolio construction, and in a Report on Nvidia's pattern of bundling supplier investments into its own strategic deals.
What the diary watches
The diary watches whether Coherent's purchase commitments and capacity-access arrangements tied to larger customer investments keep showing up alongside its own earnings, and whether momentum and valuation readings converge or keep pulling apart.

Coherent Corp (COHR) trades on US exchanges, and sits in Layer 5 of the build-out stack. Constituent of Rubin Build-Out 100.

  • Or type any ticker (NVDA, 7203.T, ASML.AS …) and press Enter — it charts in the cell straight from our data lake.

Studies

  • Overlays / Oscillators rows toggle the standard set (SMA, Bollinger, RSI, MACD …) per cell.
  • Levels (stock cells) draws the structure engine's support lines — regression bands, pivot cluster, SMA-200, the active fib zone.

Drawing

  • On stocks the scanner's machine count appears automatically in grey — it is fully editable: drag any point, double-tap a label to remove it, Delete to dismiss it for good, Adopt to bring the machine's proposal back.
  • The sequence picker switches 1-5 / A-B-C / A-E / W-X-Y-Z; 1 2 3 cycles the degree; Subdiv starts a one-degree-smaller child count inside a wave.
