Corning Incorporated (GLW): one to watch?

No company-specific bad news — this is a valuation unwind after a huge AI-fiber rally, but at 90x trailing earnings it's still priced for perfection ahead of July 28 earnings.

Why GLW dropped

Corning stock had rallied hard on AI data-center fiber demand (hitting an all-time high near $255-271 in prior weeks); the recent -26.6% drop over 10 sessions is described by multiple sources as part of a broader pullback in AI-related trades and profit-taking, not a specific negative event at Corning — one source states the selloff "is tied to a broader pullback in AI-related trades, not any company-specific bad news."
