Memory and storage stocks like SK Hynix, SanDisk, Western Digital, and Micron surged between 4% and 8% due to tight supply and growing AI-driven demand. Temasek's planned investments in Samsung and SK Hynix, Micron's forecast of even tighter supply in 2027, and Intel's comments on memory shortages fueled the rally. Despite strong gains and revenue growth, valuations remain modest, with P/E ratios in the high teens to low 20s. Investors are watching if these gains hold and anticipate Micron's upcoming fiscal Q4 2026 report for further direction.
