Sandisk: Memory Has Structurally Changed, The Sector Cannot Remain At 5x P/E

Sandisk Corporation is upgraded to Strong Buy with a $3,900 price target, implying 200% upside as AI transforms memory from cyclical to core infrastructure. SNDK's PCIe Gen 5, QLC, and BiCS8 technologies, combined with vertical integration and Kioxia partnership, position it as a key AI infrastructure supplier. Consensus underappreciates SNDK's shift from consumer electronics to AI-driven demand, supporting a re-rating from 5x to 15x P/E as margins and growth accelerate.

Kevin Hincks breaks down the jobs report, the latest headlines from Iran, Airbnb (ABNB) surging after earnings, and The Trade Desk (TTD) plunging following disappointing quarterly results and a weak outlook.

Payroll Growth Stalls As Labor Force Declines

Payroll Growth Stalls As Labor Force Declines

The U.S. job market is experiencing renewed flatness, with July payrolls declining by 23,000, primarily in local government, finance, and retail. Despite a seemingly positive drop in the unemployment rate to 4.1%, this masks a significant issue: the labor force is shrinking. It decreased by 264,000 last month, and participation has fallen a full percentage point since December. This trend is driven by Baby Boomer retirements and immigrants exiting the workforce, partly due to aggressive deportation policies. While modest payroll growth may not cause higher unemployment, this shrinking labor pool is expected to weaken overall economic growth and accelerate workplace automation.
