You are a financial news classifier. Analyze this news and respond with JSON only.

Headline: Applied Optoelectronics shares are trading lower after the company announced it entered into an equity distribution to sell up to $600 million in common stock.
Summary: 
Symbols: AAOI
Source: benzinga

## Classification rules
- Default shouldResearch=true for any headline in these categories: earnings, guidance, fda, merger, macro, analyst (rating/PT change at a major bank).
- Default shouldResearch=true for any large-cap mention (market cap > $10B, ADRs like BAYRY/NSRGY/TM included) even if the ticker itself isn't directly tradable — downstream strategist can still express the view via a sector/geography ETF.
- shouldResearch=false ONLY for clearly immaterial items: small-cap PR noise, pure opinion pieces with no new info, insider-buy/sell of <$100k, reprints of old news.
- When in doubt, prefer shouldResearch=true. The cost of a missed catalyst is much higher than the cost of one extra research pass.

Respond ONLY with valid JSON:
{"category":"earnings|guidance|macro|fda|merger|analyst|general","urgency":"critical|high|medium|low","symbols":[],"shouldResearch":true|false,"reasoning":"..."}

```json
{
  "category": "general",
  "urgency": "medium",
  "symbols": ["AAOI"],
  "shouldResearch": true,
  "reasoning": "Applied Optoelectronics announced a significant $600M equity distribution offering. While this is a general corporate action rather than earnings/guidance/FDA/merger/analyst-driven, it represents a material capital structure event that could affect shareholders through dilution. The stock is trading lower on the news, indicating market relevance. Without confirmation that AAOI is large-cap (>$10B market cap), and given this is a concrete corporate action with financial implications, this warrants research review to assess impact and investor implications."
