1028 ET - Sandisk is improving margins and demand cyclicality thanks to the AI trade, JPMorgan analysts say, moving the stock to overweight from not rated. The memory provider is positioned to capitalize on AI as the total addressable market for NAND memory products is inflecting from around $70 billion in 2025 to more than $300 billion this calendar year. The analysts expect it to reach $500 billion next year. Data centers are driving that growth with demand from AI hyperscalers and cloud customers, the analysts say. Sandisk is also adjusting its business model to reduce demand cyclicality and bring its margin profile higher, they say. Shares are up 6%.
