SanDisk Corp (SNDK) shares rose 6.17% to $1379.49 on Monday, October 19, as semiconductor stocks rebounded from a sharp sell-off. The primary driver was a broader recovery in the chip sector following the longest losing streak since 2006, with investors reassessing AI memory valuations after a volatile week.
What Happened
Micron Technology, SanDisk, and SK Hynix stocks climbed in premarket trading after last week’s decline, which saw the group fall 1% over five trading days. The rebound occurred as investors braced for upcoming quarterly reports from Micron and SanDisk. China’s CXMT shares fell despite a record profit forecast, a move that highlighted the competitive dynamics in the DRAM market. Analysts noted that Samsung represents a significant threat to Micron and SanDisk investors, potentially outweighing concerns related to China. The sector’s recovery followed a period where the Fear & Greed Index moved to the "Extreme Fear" zone, and the Nasdaq recorded a weekly loss of over 2%.
What The Data Shows
The stock opened at $1358.81, a 4.6% gap from the prior close of $1299.30. The session high reached $1387.88 at 9:30 AM ET, while the low was $1341.00 at 7:30 AM ET. Volume so far stands at 0.5M shares, which is 0.0x the 3-month daily average. Fundamentals show a market cap of $190.2B and a P/E ratio of 17.6. Revenue increased 175.3% on a trailing twelve-month basis, with a net margin of 56.5%. The 52-week range is $136.29 to $2354.39. Over the last 8 sessions, the stock moved -20.7%, falling from $1692.42 to $1341.64. On October 19, the stock printed 2 fresh 52-week highs and 1 fresh 52-week low.

Ro Khanna in August.
