Marvell shares drop nearly 10% after news of Lumentum acquisition sparks valuation concerns.

Marvell is nearing the acquisition of Lumentum, causing its shares to fall nearly 10% due to worries about the high valuation, as Lumentum is over a third the size of Marvell. Despite the drop, the deal could strengthen Marvell's position in the AI and data center markets by expanding its photonics capabilities. Marvell also raised its revenue forecast for 2028, expecting strong growth in data centers. However, investors remain cautious due to potential instability in AI demand and broader economic challenges.

Marvell Technology Inc (MRVL) shares dropped 11.00% to USD 223.97 as of Oct 29, 2026 17:21 WIB on Pluang, reflecting strong selling pressure with 55% of orders to sell. Meanwhile, Lumentum (LITE) shares rose 5.69% to USD 965.94, with all Pluang orders to buy. This trading activity highlights investor caution around the acquisition deal discussed in the news.
