Angle Q2 EPS growth is still on deck after a 30% reset, with AI-server PCB demand and A&D backlog intact.
TTMI has already absorbed a sharp valuation reset, falling roughly 30% from the prior week’s highs while the AI-server PCB story, $1.6B aerospace-defense backlog, and Penang yield progress remain intact [#1]. The Q2 preview still flags consensus EPS growth and exposure to high-layer-count PCB/RF demand tied to AI-server, networking, and aerospace-defense markets [#2]. Large bullish call flow into the rebound window adds confirmation that buyers are positioning for a pre/post-earnings re-rate rather than treating the washout as broken momentum [#5, #7].
Catalyst The Q2 earnings window and Aug. 21 call-expiration positioning are the near-term re-rating setup.
AI Status:TTMI closed for a +18.71% gain after a nine-day rebound from the valuation reset as our exit signal ended the hold.
The trade realized +18.71% from entry at 118.69, peaking at +25.82% before retracing about 7 points from the high with maximum drawdown near -6.78%. The AI-server PCB and aerospace-defense backlog thesis held through the Q2 window, but the position gave back part of its best gain before our exit signal closed it. At exit, daily momentum remained neutral-to-positive with RSI near 52 and MACD histogram above signal, while weekly MACD histogram was still negative but turning up.
