On July 24, Roundhill Memory ETF declined 5.06% in regular trading, trading at $54.98/share, with turnover of $679 million.
On the news front, the memory chip sector faced broad-based selling as multiple headwinds converged. Overnight US technology stocks fell sharply, deepening market concerns about the sustainability of returns on massive AI capital expenditures. With global memory leaders SK Hynix and Samsung Electronics set to report earnings next week, investors moved to lock in profits ahead of potential buy-the-rumor-sell-the-news dynamics.
The sell-off originated in Asia, where South Koreas KOSPI index plunged over 6% intraday, with SK Hynix and Samsung Electronics shares each falling more than 7%. The weakness cascaded into US-listed memory names, with SanDisk and SK Hynix ADRs each dropping over 3%. The ETF had surged nearly 20% over two sessions earlier in the week on bullish storage pricing forecasts and Samsungs robotics division announcement, making it particularly vulnerable to profit-taking.
