The Roundhill Memory ETF fell 15% on June 5, 2026, after a two-day 20% drop driven by concerns over AI semiconductor demand and rising interest rates. Broadcom's weaker-than-expected AI revenue guidance and a strong May payroll report raised fears of slower hyperscaler spending and potential Fed rate hikes, pressuring memory chip stocks like Micron, Samsung, and SK hynix. The ETF's heavy concentration in just a few memory chipmakers amplified the selloff. Investors are now focused on Micron's June 24 earnings report for clarity on contract pricing and demand outlook, which will likely determine the next trend for this volatile sector.
