Legal entities point out that the strong demand for high-end AI chips and related peripheral components, driven by AI servers and data center infrastructure, has led to record-high self-reported revenues in March and Q1 for 'thousand-dollar' concept stocks in areas such as power supply, thermal modules, PCBs and CCLs, memory modules, semiconductor wafer testing and advanced packaging equipment, optical communication, and silicon photonics. Their stock performance today was outstanding. (Edited by Chang Chun-mao) 1150408
