nlight

nLIGHT (NASDAQ: LASR) climbed about 5.8%, standing out during a broader tech selloff.

The move followed news of a major U.S. defense contract for a high-energy laser system. The initial award is worth $44 million, with the total program potentially reaching $627 million.

While semiconductor and AI stocks were under pressure, investors appeared more focused on nLIGHT’s growing role in defense technology and directed-energy systems.
