SanDisk Drops on Its S&P 100 Inclusion Date — Is Memory Shifting Gears?

The S&P 100 rebalance took effect Sept 21, and SanDisk fell 1.41% to $1,766.64 — after a 10.99% jump the prior session, when index funds finished buying. The rest of the memory sector rose: Micron +2.77% to $1,043.96, SK Hynix +0.73% to $188.86. With the index bid spent, the sector trades on product pricing again. Bulls say the thesis is intact — capacity and prices stay tight, as Micron and SK Hynix show. Bears say SanDisk's index-driven leg had no earnings behind it and now needs a fundamental anchor from an elevated base. Same day, opposite moves — whose signal do you trust?

Watch the spread on these 7x DLCs too. When liquidity thins, the bid ask can get ugly and exits feel way harder than the headline move

AI optimism feels a bit overheated. SMIC up 1% while pushing 5x products is exactly how people get buried, volume needs to confirm first
