Sandisk shares drop 9% despite strong earnings, buyback, and 8-for-1 stock split amid sector selloff

Sandisk reported a strong quarter beating revenue and earnings estimates, raised its guidance, announced a $5 billion buyback, and an 8-for-1 stock split. Despite these positives, its shares fell 9%, dragging down other memory stocks like Western Digital, Seagate, and Micron. The selloff reflects profit-taking and concerns over high memory prices affecting demand, especially in consumer markets. Investors will watch if data center demand can sustain pricing and if the sector stabilizes after this broad decline.

As of Oct 30, 2026 20:31 WIB, SanDisk shares on Pluang are down 8.95% at USD 1,211.00, with a market cap of $192.23B and heavy selling pressure at 73% sell orders. Western Digital and Seagate also face declines, trading down 6.51% and 7.13% respectively. Micron is down 5.41%, reflecting a broad sector selloff in memory stocks. The most notable figure is SanDisk's nearly 9% drop despite its strong earnings and guidance.
