Short seller report ignites debate: Social media discussions heated up after a high-profile short report claimed SanDisk faces a memory cycle peak, likening its flash storage to a commodity vulnerable to Samsung's dominance. Pundits highlighted Western Digital's recent share sales as a signal of caution amid AI hype.
Bulls emphasize AI-driven demand: Counterarguments flooded in, stressing multi-year global shortages in NAND flash propelled by AI data centers, with demand expected to outstrip supply until 2030. Enthusiasts noted SanDisk's pivot to long-term data center deals and attractive multiples, projecting shares toward $1000.
Performance in spotlight: Amid the fray, observers praised SanDisk's role in top-performing data storage groups this year, following strong earnings beats. Chatter also addressed secondary offerings, with some viewing dilution as a bull run concern while others saw opportunity.
