Viavi Solutions (VIAV) Earns New Milestone, Climbs 12%

Viavi Solutions Inc. (NASDAQ:VIAV) is one of the 10 Stocks Paying Off Big Time.

Viavi Solutions rebounded by 12.23 percent on Monday to close at $52.94 apiece, as investor sentiment was boosted by its official inclusion in a benchmark index.

Earlier this month, the S&P Dow Jones Indices announced the inclusion of five companies in the S&P MidCap 400, including Viavi Solutions Inc. (NASDAQ:VIAV). Other companies include Sanmina, Semtech, Coeur Mining, and Roku. The recomposition took effect on the same day, June 22.

Meanwhile, the S&P Dow Jones Indices dropped Flex, BellRing Brands, Coty, Concentrix, and Blackbaud from the same group.

Companies added to or removed from benchmark indices typically see a significant movement in their share prices as exchange-traded funds tracking the indices would need to rebalance their portfolios to mirror their composition.

In other developments, the rally can also be partly attributed to Viavi Solutions Inc.’s (NASDAQ:VIAV) announcement last week that its Xgig platform for PCI Express 6.0 specification testing has achieved Gold Suite acceptance from PCI-SIG.

The recognition enables the platform to be used for PCIe 6.0 link and transaction protocol compliance testing at PCI-SIG compliance workshops worldwide.

“Designed to support AI workloads and other high-performance computing applications, PCIe 6.0 specification delivers faster, more dependable data transfer, driving greater overall efficiency,” Viavi Solutions Inc. (NASDAQ:VIAV) SVP and General Manager for Lab Production Tom Fawcett said.

“Compliance testing remains a cornerstone of PCI-SIG’s standards development, and we look forward to continuing to support its members in upcoming compliance workshops.”
