Market Focus
Jun 06

On June 5, Western Digital fell 3.1% in after-hours trading, trading at $495.88/share, with trading volume of $435 million. The stock had already declined nearly 10% over the prior two trading sessions, extending a broad storage sector selloff.

On the news front, Broadcom reported earnings on June 4, delivering Q2 total revenue of $22.19 billion that beat expectations and AI revenue of $10.8 billion representing 145% year-over-year growth. However, the company's Q3 AI chip revenue guidance of approximately $16 billion fell short of the market consensus of $16.3 billion, and the CEO did not raise the full-year AI revenue target. Broadcom subsequently plunged 12.59% in a single session, with selling pressure rapidly spreading to the storage sector.

Separately, research indicates Nvidia's Rubin NVL72 platform may reduce CPU-side SOCAMM memory capacity from 55TB to 28TB, further compressing market size expectations for certain memory segments. Within the sector, SanDisk fell 2.71%, Seagate declined 2.29%, and Dell dropped 1.38%.
