The article highlights three stocks with big recent runs—Abivax (+1,500% over 12 months), Krystal Biotech (+167%), and Marvell Technology (+248%)—arguing they still have upside. For Krystal Biotech, Q1 revenue rose 32% YoY to $116.4M and net profit increased 56.5% YoY to $55.9M, driven by Vyjuvek performance. For Marvell, fiscal Q1’27 net revenue hit a record $2.4B (+28% YoY) and adjusted EPS rose 29% YoY to $0.80, supported by rising AI infrastructure ASIC demand.
This is less a “buy the news” setup than a reminder that the market is paying up for two very different kinds of optionality: self-funding commercial scarcity in KRYS and binary clinical upside in ABVX. The spread matters—KRYS can compound on its own cash flow, while ABVX still has to survive a long regulatory gap, so any valuation rerate is hostage to safety, approval, and eventual reimbursement friction rather than just efficacy.
The cleaner second-order winner is MRVL as a relative beneficiary of hyperscaler diversification away from NVDA. The real constraint is customer concentration: if a few cloud buyers delay or internalize ASIC design, revenue can look strong until one program slips, so the next 2-3 earnings cycles matter more than the 6-18 month AI narrative. AVGO is the obvious competitor to watch, but the broader point is that custom silicon is a share-shift story inside AI capex, not a guarantee of unbounded industry growth.
Contrarian take: the market may be overpricing “early innings” across the board. ABVX’s window to approval is long enough for sentiment and funding conditions to change; KRYS already reflects a lot of execution quality; and MRVL may be the better stock, but not necessarily the better trade if AI spend broadens instead of re-prices toward custom chips. For now, the highest-probability expression is relative value rather than outright beta chasing.
