**Sandisk Experiences Significant Stock Decline Amid AI and Memory Chip Market Woes**

In July, shares of Sandisk (NASDAQ: SNDK) fell 47% as investor confidence in the AI and memory chip sectors declined. The downturn has been attributed to fears of overspending on capital expenditures by tech giants, alongside challenges posed by a new AI model launched in China and the IPO of the Chinese memory chip company CXMT, which has a market cap of approximately $500 billion.

Despite these setbacks, analysts still anticipate that Sandisk’s profits will increase through at least next year, following a remarkable 800% surge in stock price during the first half of this year. However, concerns regarding the sustainability of capital expenditures from major clients, alongside missed earnings expectations from competitor SK Hynix, have kept market sentiments cautious.
