Sandisk Corp shares fell by 10.36% as the stock crossed below its 5-day SMA, reflecting a challenging trading environment.
This decline occurs amid broader market weakness, with the Nasdaq-100 down 0.59% and the S&P 500 down 0.08%. Despite recent strong performance driven by AI storage demand, the current market conditions have led to a sector rotation that negatively impacted Sandisk's stock price.
Investors are closely monitoring the market dynamics, particularly in the tech sector, as they assess the implications of ongoing demand for AI solutions against the backdrop of fluctuating market sentiment.
