Reason
Morgan Stanley analyst Meta Marshall raised the firm's price target on Corning to $98 from $82 and keeps an Equal Weight rating on the shares. The AI trade broadened out from semi names in 2025, helping infrastructure names, particularly within optical, notes the analyst, who believes that trade can continue, particularly in optical, through the first half of 2026.
