YTD as of 2026-09-04 · source: Yahoo Finance
Credo Technology operates across Nasdaq, AI interconnect, AEC & PAM4. After a spike of +245.2% in 2024, gains cooled to +114.1% in 2025 and +18.5% in 2026. Demand side (avg +8%), the stock (+18.5%) and supply side (avg +6.4%) are moving in step. Propagation has completed a lap, so the next leg depends on individual results more than chain direction. Among connected nodes the furthest ahead is TSMC (+41.9%) and the furthest behind is Synopsys (-16.2%). If chain logic explains the gap, the laggard is the next propagation candidate; if not, the link itself deserves a second look. Customers include Microsoft and Amazon.
