Robotics Bull Case Still Intact After FinX Chart Frenzy

Conviction: 72% · Horizon: 3Y · 2026-07-17
Physical AI and humanoid build-out still underprices LiDAR, actuators, bearings, sensing, copper, silver, and memory.

The robotics and humanoid setup has not deteriorated: perception (LiDAR), precision actuators, bearings, and sensing remain core bottlenecks, while copper, silver, and high-density memory sit in every joint, connector, and compute stack. Multi-hundred-x long-term growth in actuators and bearings still points to multi-year demand for the physical layer, not just software AI.

Instrument Side Target Reason
OUST Long Global LiDAR and perception-layer leadership with valuation back near sub-10x sales, positioning the name as a levered bet on robot sensing without needing perfect near-term humanoid volumes.
6324.T Long Precision strain-wave gears dominate high-performance humanoid actuators, giving one of the cleanest pure exposures to the actuator stack that already represents a large share of robot BOM cost.
COPX Long Copper is embedded in joint motors, PCBs, and connectors across the robotics stack, so a copper-miners basket captures physical-AI intensity without single-name mining risk.
VPG Long Specialty sensing components are a small but critical slice of robot BOM, and a supplier with multi-percent content per platform can compound as humanoid and industrial robot units scale.
RRX Long Bearings face an extreme multi-decade unit ramp if humanoid production scales, and a diversified industrial bearings supplier is positioned for that volume step-change at a more reasonable multiple than pure-play peers.
SLV Long Silver remains underappreciated in physical AI for contacts, electronics, and power paths, offering a liquid metal proxy for rising robotics and electrification intensity.
MU Long Humanoids carry roughly an order of magnitude more memory than a typical L2 vehicle, so memory vendors capture a structural content step-up as edge robotics compute proliferates.
