Micron and SanDisk could get automatic buying support if they bounce next week, because put-side implied volatility skew is at an all-time high. That setup would add vanna and charm buying flows into options expiration. Kioxia and SK Hynix already tested their 50-day moving averages in Asia and bounced strongly. x.comÂ
Micron and Sandisk fit the best kind of setup: stocks that don't look dirt cheap yet keep climbing, and turn out months later, after the quarter, to have been cheap. Once everyone is quoting the P/E, gains usually come less easily. x.comÂ
At $1.5T of margin debt, a market crack could punish stocks vulnerable to cyclical earnings or high expectations. Micron's profits could fall fast if memory prices weaken; SanDisk's earnings could suffer if NAND pricing turns despite booming AI demand. Palantir's sky-high valuation leaves little room for a growth miss, SpaceX's private-market expectations could suffer if sentiment turns, and Tesla's premium could unwind if autonomy and robotics disappoint. x.com x.com x.com x.com x.comÂ
Micron, SanDisk, Nvidia and AMD are in gamma squeezes backed by real earnings, so the moves should outlast GameStop's 2021 squeeze. Micron's HBM shortage pinned dealers at $900-$1,000 call walls, SanDisk's 645% data center revenue surge drove a late-stage squeeze, Nvidia's post-earnings call flood made dealers forced buyers, and AMD is testing a $525-$550 gamma wall. Broadcom hinges on June 3 earnings: a beat makes gamma explode, a miss brings an IV crush. x.comÂ
Micron, Sandisk and Western Digital ride a memory market that is being rebuilt entirely around AI. Data centers go from 20% to 70% of that market. All three have been multibagger layups this year. x.com x.comÂ
Micron, Intel, AMD, Tesla and SanDisk look overextended and due for a pullback because their share prices have outpaced earnings over five years, and stocks follow EPS over time, as Peter Lynch said. Price versus EPS growth: Micron +1,071% vs +758%, Intel +97% vs -112%, AMD +453% vs -5%, Tesla +78% vs +7%, and SanDisk +4,746% vs +717%. x.com x.com x.com x.com x.comÂ
Micron and SanDisk stand to surge as Nvidia's CFO warns of extreme memory pricing that has exceeded Nvidia's expectations and is headed even higher into next year. Nvidia expects supply to remain a bottleneck through at least the end of FY28, and guided its gross margin to bottom at 71-72% in Q4, with FY28 around 72-73% versus a 74% estimate. x.comÂ
Micron looks like the next memory name to break out, with buyers still defending the $1,035 level despite a muted earnings reaction. The numbers and forward growth were great, and similar choppy consolidations in Marvell, Super Micro, NetApp, Palantir and HPE have kept their uptrends working. SK hynix is also looking to break out. x.comÂ
Memory stocks look set to sell the news of SK hynix's US listing, with massive head-and-shoulders tops forming across memory names, which hits Micron, SanDisk and memory exposure broadly. The US listing traded at a premium to SK hynix's Korean shares, a gap likely to reconcile quickly. There are reports of significant liquidations and margin calls in Korea, and the KOSPI hit its 100-day moving average for the first time since April 2025. It is almost time to go heavy into memory longs again. … Show more
Micron and Sandisk will reprice hard until they reach fair value, as successive AI bottlenecks aggressively reprice public companies over the next decade. Mispriced bottleneck companies should outperform Nvidia, which will still go up. Once Micron and Sandisk reach fair value, holding them will carry the same opportunity cost as Nvidia, so the next bottleneck is the one to find. x.comÂ
