On July 7, Tradr 2X Long SNDK Daily ETF declined 12.77% in regular trading, trading at $20.0/share, with turnover of $323 million. As a 2x leveraged long product tracking SanDisk, the ETF amplifies the underlying stock's movements.
On the news front, Samsung Electronics released its Q2 preliminary earnings showing total revenue of 171 trillion KRW, missing market expectations of 173.9 trillion KRW, despite operating profit surging approximately 1,810% year-over-year to 89.4 trillion KRW. The revenue shortfall raised concerns over memory chip demand momentum. Samsung's stock fell 6.9% in Korea, once triggering a circuit breaker on the KOSPI index, which closed down nearly 5%.
The selloff spread to U.S. memory stocks, with SanDisk falling over 7% intraday, Western Digital dropping 5.48%, and Seagate declining 4.31%. SanDisk had already pulled back over 23% across July 2-3 before briefly rebounding on July 6 following multiple analyst upgrades. The Samsung revenue miss disrupted that short-term recovery, with options market activity showing approximately $24 million in in-the-money put options signaling institutional bearish positioning.
