Western Digital Surges. How Memory Stocks Are Riding the OpenAI Scare. -- Barrons.com

Dow Jones

04/29

By George Glover

Memory stocks were bouncing back on Wednesday after strong earnings from Seagate Technology signaled the artificial-intelligence boom is still driving up demand for data storage.

Hard-drive maker Western Digital jumped 9% to $426.35 ahead of the opening bell. Flash memory supplier Sandisk rose 4.9% to $1,051. Memory-chip maker Micron Technology added 2.6% to trade at $517.90, after D.A. Davidson initiated coverage at Buy with a $1,000 price target.

The three stocks tumbled on Tuesday after The Wall Street Journal reported that ChatGPT developer OpenAI had missed key growth targets, triggering a selloff in stocks linked to AI computing.

They looked set to make a swift recovery after hard-drive maker Seagate beat on earnings and sales and issued strong guidance for its fiscal fourth quarter, reassuring investors that data-storage demand remains strong.

Seagate's own shares rallied 17% to $678 in Wednesday's premarket.
