Credo stock surges on Evercore $325 target and optical growth outlook

Credo Technology jumped 8.6% after Evercore ISI initiated coverage with an Outperform rating and a $325 price target, the highest on Wall Street. The target implies roughly 20% upside from Friday's record close of $271.83. The note is clearly supportive for sentiment, but the catalyst is analyst initiation rather than new operating results.
