BlueFin analysts John Donovan and Steve Mullane say their firm's latest supply chain checks suggest "strong and stable" iPhone demand. While unit demand has not changed, the mix to higher storage models has increased, which should benefit Toshiba (TOSBF), Samsung (SSNLF), and Micron Technology (MU), Donovan and Mullane tell investors in a research note. Further, BlueFin's latest checks reveal Lumentum (LITE) has received increased orders recently while competitors II-VI (IIVI) and Finisar (FNSR) continue to focus on securing second-source positioning. The latest on the two latter companies is mixed, but overall "encouraging," the analysts contend. As far as the rumors that Apple is exploring internal VCSEL development, they believe this is "more of a negotiating tactic at this point." VCSEL demand "looks to be skyrocketing" and the frustration in developing a secure second-source has likely caused Apple to explore internal development, write Donovan and Mullane. They understand Apple has looked into fabs in Taiwan to see about VCSEL development but note the earliest this could materialize is 2020-2021. This is likely more of a "call to arms" by Apple for Finisar, II-VI, and Lumentum to increase production to meet the demand, "or else face the consequences."
