POET Technologies' management has proven its incompetence, which matters because a rotten foundation in leadership keeps a business from flourishing. Per @ren_stocks, the CFO broke an NDA by naming a customer, leading Marvell to cancel its deals just as the stock ran from $5 to $16. On a leadership scoring framework, POET rates poorly: a technically credentialed team with a decade-long pattern of overpromising, chasing hot themes, dilution and now a governance failure. x.com  x.com 

POET Technologies' partnership with Quantum Computing Inc., a confirmed scam company, is a huge red flag that ended an earlier speculative bullish view of the stock. @StockSavvyShay also calls paying influencers to promote the stock a red flag, however real the technology. x.com 

POET Technologies is still very early in its growth. Revenue grew 112% year over year with six straight quarters of sequential growth, and it is showcasing new laser light source technology for AI interconnects this week. It is one worth being patient with. x.com 

POET Technologies is no investment just because it hasn't run yet in a hot photonics category. It is pre-revenue, has relied on paid stock promotion, and has now been wrecked after its hype efforts angered Marvell. Serious photonics traders never thought anything of it. x.com 

POET Technologies looks like a short on a pattern of partnerships that counterparties deny. @NMRtweet is short after Marvell, which acquired Celestial AI, cancelled POET's product orders, arguing POET isn't transparent and this isn't the only dead partnership. @kovainvest's timeline lists POET press releases each denied by the counterparty, including Lightwave execs who said they had never heard of POET, and Marvell's cancellation citing a POET NDA breach, which sent shares down 47% in a day. … Show more

POET Technologies' 47% one-day plunge was self-inflicted, not a technology problem, making it an easy buy. Marvell, which bought Celestial AI in February, pulled Celestial's orders citing a confidentiality breach after POET's CFO confirmed the order on Stocktwits. The stock has since rebounded 211.67% in two weeks. x.com 

POET Technologies is uninvestable because its management lacks basic judgment, which outweighs having the perfect product at the perfect time. Its CFO breached an NDA by disclosing the Marvell deal himself, and the stock fell nearly 50%, per @StockSavvyShay. There were red flags with this management group even before. Ondas's CEO shows the focus, consistency and trustworthiness investors should look for instead. x.com 

POET isn't worth the time: management is icky, it has a history of promoting its stock rather than its business on social media, and it has no edge over competitors such as Coherent. Even a 5% chance of fraud is reason enough to build big positions in safer names instead. The patents a reply cites don't prove demand or economic viability. x.com  x.com 

POET Technologies is the upstream pick-and-shovel for Celestial AI's Photonic Fabric, which Marvell just acquired for about $5B. POET supplies the light source that powers it, and Marvell has the hyperscaler relationships with AWS, Google and Meta to deploy it at scale. Revenue is still early, but once Marvell integrates Celestial and ramps production orders, the market should recognize POET's value; Q3 or Q4 2026 could be the inflection, and patience is required. x.com 

POET is now an unknown after Night Market Research's short report alleged its partnership story is dead, so stepping aside makes sense until management gives verifiable counter-evidence. Per the report, Celestial AI says POET hasn't come up internally since 2023, Foxconn executives stopped using it two years ago, Luxshare executives never heard of it and its Toronto HQ was empty. The optical interconnect bottleneck is real, but Lumentum and Coherent are the durable picks in the subsector. x.com  … Show more
