Sandisk Corporation (NASDAQ:SNDK) estava entre as recomendações de ações de Jim Cramer, pois ele sugeriu que muitas ações em alta podem continuar a render dinheiro aos investidores. Começando sua lista de ações que tiveram altas significativas recentes das quais ele perdeu, Cramer mencionou a empresa e disse:

Vou falar sobre 16 [ações] que não consegui pegar, não consegui trazê-las... Elas estão tão longe de onde eu queria comprá-las pela primeira vez que tenho que dizer que estou atrasado, esqueça delas. Exceto que vez após vez teria funcionado se eu não tivesse esquecido delas, se eu as tivesse comprado hoje ou ontem, anteontem, uma semana antes, um mês antes, o que for. Quais são as ações tentadoras que me levaram à ruína? Vamos começar com memória e armazenamento, sim, os dispositivos que guardam os dados. Pronto? Você pode anotá-las, mas elas estão tão quentes que vão queimar o papel. Seagate, Sandisk, Western Digital e Micron. Eu gostei de todas essas...

Ouça-me. Essas ações estão sendo impulsionadas por compradores desesperados com ordens persistentes que as levam mais alto a cada dia. E agora vou te dizer como funciona. Digamos que você queira alguma Sandisk, ok, assim como muitas outras pessoas. Com a ação a, digamos, US$ 957, você entra e faz um pedido como este: US$ 957, certo? Sandisk, compre para mim 100.000 com um limite de US$ 1.000. Meia dúzia de compradores estão realmente colocando o mesmo pedido ao mesmo tempo que você, literalmente. E é por isso que a ação pode subir 8,4% hoje, alta de 75 dólares.

Esses pedidos são frequentemente feitos antes da abertura do mercado. É como um trem, e eles não querem perder. Esses pedidos e as pessoas não desistem, e é assim que uma ação sobe dramaticamente. Múltiplos compradores com limites altos apenas comprando e comprando. Por que essas ações de memória funcionam? Simples, escassez. A IA precisa de uma enorme quantidade de memória. Ninguém nesta indústria estava pronto para esse nível de demanda. Levará anos para construir capacidade de produção suficiente para atender à demanda.

"The reliance on 'shortages' as a thesis ignores the inherent cyclicality of the memory industry and the risk of over-capacity as manufacturers aggressively chase AI-driven capital expenditures."

Cramer’s focus on 'shortages' as a perpetual engine for memory stocks like SNDK (now part of Western Digital) ignores the cyclical, commodity-like nature of NAND flash. While AI demand is real, memory is notoriously prone to 'bullwhip effects'—where manufacturers over-expand capacity to meet perceived shortages, leading to a supply glut and margin compression once the build-out matures. Buying into a parabolic move driven by 'persistent orders' is essentially chasing momentum at the peak of a cycle. Without clear visibility into long-term pricing power versus the inevitable capital expenditure cycle, this looks like a classic late-cycle trap rather than a structural growth opportunity.

If AI infrastructure spending remains non-discretionary and supply-constrained for the next 36 months, the historical boom-bust cycle of memory may be permanently broken by a new, higher-margin demand floor.

"AI NAND shortages create multi-year tailwinds for MU/WDC/STX, with forward multiples too cheap for 20%+ EPS growth if demand holds."

Jim Cramer's shoutout underscores real AI-driven NAND flash shortages boosting memory stocks: Seagate (STX), Western Digital (WDC, which acquired delisted SNDK in 2016), and Micron (MU). Data centers guzzle storage for AI training/inference; supply ramps lag 2-3 years amid fab constraints. MU's 10.5x forward P/E (vs. 25% EPS growth est.) and WDC's 8x imply re-rating potential to 15x if Q3 guides confirm. Momentum from pre-market 'top-of-book' orders is textbook, but sustainable if utilization >90%. Article's $957 SNDK price flags outdated context—focus on live tickers. Sector EBITDA margins could hit 30%+ short-term.

NAND is hyper-cyclical; AI hype has spurred $50B+ capex commitments, risking 2026 oversupply glut and margin collapse to negative territory as seen in 2019-2021.

"Cramer is describing technical momentum from desperate order-stacking, not fundamental demand strength—and he's using it to justify entry into a cyclical commodity at elevated multiples after a 75-point single-day move."

Cramer's observation about order flow mechanics is real—large institutional buyers with high limit orders do create momentum. But he's conflating two separate things: (1) technical buying pressure, which is temporary and reversible, and (2) structural demand from AI. The shortage narrative is partially true but aging. NAND flash capacity additions from Samsung, SK Hynix, and Kioxia are already ramping. SNDK trades at ~8x forward earnings with 15% gross margins—not cheap for a commodity cyclical. The 75-point rally he cites happened on what appears to be a single day of algorithmic stacking. That's not a thesis; that's volatility he's mistaking for conviction.

If AI capex truly remains as aggressive as 2024 suggested, and fabs genuinely cannot scale fast enough, memory could stay tight through 2025-26, sustaining premium valuations and order-flow-driven rallies longer than historical cycles suggest.

"Near-term rallies in memory names can be mechanical, but the longer-term upside hinges on sustained, scalable AI-driven demand and capex discipline, which remains uncertain."

The article ties SNDK to a near-term AI memory demand thesis, but SNDK as a standalone ticker largely isn’t traded today, weakening the obvious bullish narrative. It hinges on memory shortages and a momentum-driven rally, yet memory cycles are notoriously volatile and driven by capex, not just demand. AI-driven memory demand is uncertain in scale and pricing power, and if producers accelerate capacity, prices and margins can compress within the next 12–24 months. The piece omits fundamentals like gross margins, balance-sheet health, and competition from MU and WDC. In short, headline momentum masks a murky earnings path.

Even if AI demand grows, memory pricing may not sustain; capacity additions could outpace demand, squeezing margins. Also SNDK as a standalone name has limited relevance vs traded peers.

"Aggressive capacity expansion by Chinese NAND producers will likely trigger a supply glut and margin compression by late 2025, invalidating the 15x P/E re-rating thesis."

Grok, your 15x re-rating target for MU and WDC is dangerously optimistic. You’re assuming a permanent structural shift, but you’re ignoring the 'China factor.' YMTC and other domestic players are aggressively expanding NAND capacity to bypass Western sanctions, which will likely flood the market with commoditized supply by late 2025. Even if AI demand holds, this localized supply glut will crush pricing power and compress EBITDA margins far faster than your 2026 oversupply timeline suggests.

"YMTC tech gap preserves pricing power for WDC/MU in premium AI NAND."

Gemini, YMTC's NAND expansion threatens consumer spot market but lags badly in high-density (300+ layers), high-endurance tiers vital for AI data centers—Western firms like WDC/MU hold 80%+ share there. Unflagged upside: Q3 earnings (Oct 2024) likely show sustained 30%+ gross margins if utilization holds, defying your accelerated glut timeline.

"High-end NAND moat is real but temporary; Chinese subsidized supply will force Western players into margin compression before Q4 2025, making near-term earnings beats a false signal."

Grok's 80%+ Western share in high-density NAND is real, but the timeline matters enormously. YMTC's 300+ layer nodes lag 2–3 years behind Samsung/SK Hynix, yet Chinese fabs are subsidized and willing to operate at razor margins. By late 2025, even inferior capacity floods spot markets, forcing Western vendors into lower-margin segments. Q3 earnings may show 30%+ margins, but that's a lagging indicator—forward guidance will signal if management sees margin compression ahead. Grok's betting on sustained utilization; I'd watch for capex guidance cuts as the real tell.

"China-driven NAND capacity expansion could rapidly erode margins and derail Grok's 15x re-rating even with near-term strength."

Grok's 15x re-rating hinges on sustained utilization and pricing power, which ignores a looming supply shock from YMTC and other Chinese fabs. Even if Western high-density NAND stays dominant, subsidized, faster-capacity expansions abroad could compress pricing and EBITDA, forcing multiple compression before 2026. If capex guidance softens or utilization dips, the narrative flips quickly. One overlooked risk: China-driven capacity adds a new supply layer that can outpace demand growth and erode margins.
