Movement Alert｜Western Digital Rises 3.02% in Pre-Market Trading, Storage Chip Supply Tightness and Sector-Wide Strength Extend Recovery

Market Focus08-14 19:05

On August 14, Western Digital rose 3.02% in pre-market trading, trading at approximately $502.0/share, with turnover of $18.70 million, extending its post-earnings recovery trajectory.

On the news front, the storage chip sector strengthened broadly in pre-market trading, with SanDisk up over 6%, Micron Technology up 3%, and Seagate Technology up over 2%. The previous session saw explosive gains across the sector, with SanDisk surging 10%, Western Digital rising 8%, and SK Hynix climbing 7%. The rally is underpinned by persistent global storage chip supply-demand imbalance, as long-term supply agreements have expanded from Samsung, SK Hynix, and Micron to second-tier producers including SanDisk and CXMT, reshaping pricing power across the supply chain. Meanwhile, multiple investment banks have raised their target prices for Western Digital: Bernstein to $770, Morgan Stanley to $676, and BNP Paribas to $700, providing sustained support for the recovery.
