Tom Holland and Zendaya are reportedly planning to install a climate-controlled room in one of their several properties to preserve her more than $269,000 wedding gown.
Holland, 30, and Zendaya, 30, said "I do" during an intimate wedding celebration at the Beaverbrook Hotel in Surrey, just outside London, on Aug. 4.
The actress marked the occasion by donning a stunning lace Schiaparelli gown featuring long sleeves and a high neckline.
Now, Zendaya is reportedly taking extraordinary measures to ensure the sentimental garment—which has never been pictured or seen publicly—is carefully preserved for years to come.
Sources told The Sun that the actress wants to keep the gown close by rather than entrusting it to an outside storage company. The dress reportedly needs to be stored at a temperature between 59 and 64 degrees.

Gold can play a role in a diversified retirement portfolio, but it's generally better suited as a complement to stocks, bonds, and other investments than as a primary retirement ****** et.
Gold may help diversify a portfolio because it can perform differently from stocks and bonds under certain market conditions. But gold also has drawbacks, including lower long-term returns than stocks and, in the case of a gold IRA, potentially high storage and custodial fees.
How much gold belongs in your retirement portfolio depends on factors including your age, risk tolerance, time until retirement, and investment goals.
Gold can help diversify a retirement portfolio, but it shouldn't replace stocks, bonds, and other investments.

Enbridge Inc. (NYSE:ENB) has agreed to buy Blackstone-owned Tallgrass Energy's crude oil business for $2.55 billion in cash, expanding its presence in the U.S. liquids pipeline market. The deal includes a 75% stake in the 1,050-mile Pony Express Pipeline, a 51% interest in the Powder River Gateway system, around 8.4 million barrels of storage capacity and crude marketing operations.
Pony Express can move roughly 460,000 barrels of crude per day between the Rockies and the Cushing, Oklahoma, hub. The deal also gives Enbridge greater exposure to major producing regions, including the Bakken, Powder River and Denver-Julesburg basins.
The acquisition gives Enbridge Inc. (NYSE:ENB) a stronger position in U.S. crude transportation at a time when domestic oil production is expected to remain important. Pony Express gives the company a larger presence in the Rockies and complements its existing Express-Platte system.
That combination could allow Enbridge to bring the operations together more efficiently and find synergies across its wider liquids network. The deal also gives Enbridge more than additional pipeline capacity. It adds storage infrastructure and crude marketing operations, giving the company more flexibility in how it manages and optimizes volumes. Bringing these parts of the business together could also improve the economics of the acquired **** ets.
Enbridge Inc. (NYSE:ENB) expects the **** ets to generate significant free cash flow. The company also says the transaction should add to distributable cash flow per share in the first full year after closing. The **** ets also offer relatively predictable infrastructure-style cash flows. This means Enbridge does not need higher crude prices to benefit from the acquisition. The deal fits with the company's broader strategy of growing its fee-based energy infrastructure business across North America, backed by its C$41 billion secured growth backlog.

General Motors is developing a domestic battery supply chain it expects to complete within two to three years, even as the company currently relies on some Chinese-sourced materials for its existing battery production.
Kurt Kelty, GM's vice president of battery and sustainability, told CNBC that the company's near-term goal is full domestic sourcing. "We're developing a supply chain such that, two years from now, three years from now, it will be domestic," Kelty said. "That's what we're aiming for — when we get into market, we've got a domestic source for that."
Kelty's comments center on sodium-ion battery cells that GM is developing with Denver-based startup Peak Energy for use in stationary energy storage systems for homes, businesses, and data centers. GM expects to reach commercial production of those cells around 2029, according to CNBC. A GM spokesperson confirmed to CNBC that the company would apply the same domestic sourcing priority to battery cells for future electric vehicles.
Unlike conventional lithium iron phosphate chemistry, sodium-ion cells are built around sodium from soda ash — a resource the U.S. holds in abundance — sidestepping the lithium and ferrous sulfate supply chains that China currently controls. Kelty added that sodium-ion cells handle a broader span of temperatures, which means they can function without the active thermal management that drives up the cost and complexity of stationary storage installations.
"The better thing to do is try to leapfrog, come up with a different technology that's actually better that we can actually source here," Kelty told CNBC.

1547 ET – U.S. natural gas futures end the week lower as the market enters the shoulder season where summer cooling demand tapers off before early-season heating demand starts to kick in. Last week’s 40 Bcf storage injection was bigger than expected, but smaller than average, leaving inventories 148 Bcf above the five-year average. “Elevated production and falling power demand point to larger injections ahead, leaving firm LNG demand as the main counterweight to the seasonal loosening,” Gelber & ***** ociates says in a note. Nymex front-month gas settles down 0.1% at $2.831/mmBtu for a 4.8% loss on the week.(anthony.harrupwsj.com)
0951 ET – U.S. natural gas futures are giving back yesterday’s small gains and on track for weekly losses as summer ends and cooling demand is set to ease into the autumn. Futures “remain in a sell-the-strength type trade,” Dennis Kissler of BOK Financial says in a note. “While the fundamentals still favor the bears, the market seems to be well supported near the $2.75-$2.70 area.” Nymex natural gas for October delivery is off 0.7% at $2.813/mmBtu.(anthony.harrupwsj.com)

Investors seeking exposure to artificial intelligence infrastructure must weigh the explosive growth of Astera Labs Inc (NASDAQ:ALAB) against the established scale and diverse portfolio of Marvell Technology Inc(NASDAQ:MRVL) to determine the better buy.
Both companies focus on the plumbing of the digital world, ensuring data moves quickly between processors and memory. While Astera Labs focuses on specialized connectivity for AI racks, Marvell offers a broader range of networking, storage, and custom compute solutions. This comparison explores which strategy offers more potential for long-term investors.
Astera Labs designs connectivity solutions that integrate various protocols to support rack-scale AI infrastructure, a high-growth niche among semiconductor stocks. The company serves major hyperscalers and equipment manufacturers who need to overcome data bottlenecks in massive data centers, though its revenue is highly concentrated. In 2025, one end customer -- Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ:AMZN) -- accounted for over 70% of revenue, which adds a significant layer of risk to the business model.
According to its latest annual report, filed for the fiscal year ended Dec. 31, 2025, revenue reached close to $853 million, representing a significant jump of 115% compared with the prior fiscal year. This growth trajectory helped the company transition to a net income of just over $219 million after recording losses in the previous two years. The net margin for the latest year was close to 26%.
As of its December 2025 balance sheet, the debt-to-equity ratio was 0.0x, meaning the company carries no debt relative to its shareholder equity, while the so-called current ratio was 10.2x. Free cash flow for the period reached nearly $282 million. Note that stock-based compensation (SBC) represented roughly 50.1% of operating cash flow, which inflates reported cash generation since SBC is a non-cash expense added back in the cash flow statement.

SOFIA, Sept 12 (Reuters) - Bulgaria is investigating the cause of a fire at a weapons storage facility operated by EMCO, including the possibility of sabotage and a link to a previous blaze at ‌another of the company's facilities in August, the interior minister said.
No injuries were reported in the fire, ‌which broke out near the village of Tsareva Livada and lit up the night sky, according to videos broadcast locally. The incident came weeks after an explosion and fire at another EMCO weapons depot in western Bulgaria.
Interior Minister Ivan Demerdzhiev told journalists on Saturday that the fire was under control and that an investigation was underway.
"We will review previous cases in which similar fires occurred in the warehouses of this company, as well as at other companies, in order to look for a possible connection or a ‌similar pattern," he said.
"We are not ruling ⁠out outside interference."

October Nymex natural gas (NGV26) on Thursday closed up +0.012 (+0.43%).
Nat-gas prices rebounded from a 2-week low on Thursday and settled higher. Short covering emerged in nat-gas on Thursday, supported by carryover from a rally in European nat-gas prices to a 3.75-year high. European nat-gas is soaring as sharply reduced supplies from the Middle East due to the closure of the Strait of Hormuz from the US-Iran war may boost European demand for US gas supplies. European nat-gas storage levels are well below normal, a bullish factor ahead of winter, when demand typically surges.

Multi-hyphenate comedian, actor and content creator Aaron Branch has big dreams and big ideas. Good thing he has all that storage ******* e upstairs.
Today marks the beginning of Branch's latest stand-up campaign, the Forehead Tour XXL, in Chandler, Arizona. It's been a busy year for the Kevin Langue Show star – this is his second stand-up tour supported by two self-produced comedy specials just in 2026 – but artists with big ambitions don't slow down when their followings are growing even larger than their foreheads.
Most comedy fans who know Branch have seen him on the Rob Lowe comedy series Unstable or dead-center in the eye of the storm on The Kevin Langue Show, a massively popular and mostly improvised YouTube series that combines game show elements with unbridled comedy chaos. Langue just inked a deal to bring his gonzo social experiments to Netflix late last month, and the Kevin Langue Show's massive 5.5-million subscriber count forms a huge part of Branch's own fandom.
But in his solo career, Aaron has branched out into music, long-form sketch comedy and some deeply personal stand-up performances, such as his latest comedy special, The Birth of a Forehead. A fifteen-year comedy veteran, Branch now finds his career expanding in all directions, but, much like his forehead, his body of work can always get bigger.
Shortly before the start of his current tour, Branch spoke with Cracked about his approach to stand-up, his experiences on The Kevin Langue Show and the future of his "forehead-maxxing" journey:

On September 2, NetApp Inc. (NASDAQ:NTAP) reported its Q1 FY27 results, posting record quarterly net revenue of $2.03 billion. Topline for the Intelligent Data Infrastructure company expanded by 30% compared to the first quarter in FY26. The quarter saw a broad-based growth across its core segments, resulting in a record adjusted earnings per share of $2.58, and a quarterly cash dividend of $0.52 per share. The company also strengthened its existing engagements with major players, covering a range of underlying functions.
During the first quarter, all-flash array net revenue went up 47% year-over-year, hitting a record $1.3 billion mark. This drove the overall net revenue for its Hybrid Cloud segment to $1.8 billion, translating into a 30% year-over-year growth. Public Cloud, which accounts for a smaller chunk of the business, saw its net revenue climb by 28%, also setting a record of $206 million. NetApp's total billings clocked in at $2.06 billion, exhibiting a 36% growth compared to Q1 FY26, while its non-GAAP operating margin reached 31.9%.
During the quarter, NetApp finalized the acquisition of an AI-enabled data infrastructure business, DataPelago. The deal is aimed toward facilitating customers streamline and accelerate large-scale AI deployments. On the product front, the company launched StorageGRID 12.1, to support scaling of AI workload through a federated global namespace. It also introduced Instaclustr for its fully managed Model Context Protocol Gateway, along with enhanced support for Azure NetApp Files up to 64 TiB.
NetApp also revealed new features for NetApp Trident software 26.06. These include deeper integration of OpenShift Virtualization, non-disruptive iSCSI rebalancing, efficient volume placement, and additional cloud support.
Despite encouraging numbers reported during the quarter, the free cash flows settled at $401 million. This was a 35% drop compared to figures reported for Q1 FY26. Additionally, NetApp remains heavily dependent on its Hybrid Cloud business, which generated roughly 90% of quarterly revenue, while Public Cloud still contributes a relatively small fraction of the topline despite growing 28% during the recent quarter. This leads to concerns regarding how much of the company's growth story is truly cloud-native compared to conventional on-premises hardware refresh cycles that are strongly tied to AI infrastructure investments. For the underlying all-flash arrays, such AI-linked demand trend could prove to be front-loaded or cyclical in case enterprise capital expenditure decelerates.

Answering a caller's query about Box, Inc. (NYSE:BOX) during the lightning round of Mad Money on September 3, Jim Cramer commented:
Box is finally, after multiple years, it is finally breaking out. It has good storage. People like storage. It's got a good CEO in Aaron Levie. It's just never been exciting to people. It's finally starting to get some mojo. I think it's okay to own. It's done nothing for years.
Cramer's perspective highlights a shifting narrative for a cloud pioneer that has historically traded in a tight range. In its fiscal second-quarter 2027 report, Box, Inc. (NYSE:BOX) posted revenue of $321.1 million, marking a 9.2% year-over-year increase that topped Wall Street expectations by over $2 million. Adjusted earnings per share reached $0.40, in line with consensus forecasts, while management raised full-year revenue guidance to approximately $1.29 billion. The core demand is supported by expanding adoption of higher-tier Box Suites, which now account for 69% of revenue, along with early traction in AI-driven document tools that help enterprises modernize legacy storage workflows.
Despite recent top-line acceleration, Box, Inc. (NYSE:BOX) operates in a fiercely competitive market dominated by massive tech ecosystems like Microsoft OneDrive and Google Drive, and other specialized rivals such as Dropbox. While quarterly growth has stabilized, Box's multi-year annual growth rate has historically lagged behind high-flying software peers. Furthermore, Box still needs to sustain its recent growth acceleration while investing in AI capabilities.
As per Insider Monkey's data of over 1000 hedge funds, 37 hedge funds had a stake in Box, Inc. (NYSE:BOX) in Q2 compared to 36 in Q1, highlighting steady institutional backing from long-term ***** et managers. Arrowstreet Capital remained the company's top hedge fund holder in Q2 with 4.3 million shares. Additionally, it is worth noting that another significant shareholder, Citadel Investment Group increased its position in the stock by 60% to over 3.7 million shares. The short percentage of float sits at 14.26%, which shows a notable segment of the market remains unconvinced about the sustainability of the breakout.

It looks like the American consumer has more to worry about than food recalls and cyclospora—a new study found that even the packaging the food comes in may pose some health concerns.
Out of over 15,000 food contact chemicals (FCCs), 1,222 or 8% can pose serious health risks, according to a recent study published in the peer-reviewed journal Environmental Science & Technology. Some of these FCCs, which in general are "substances that come into contact with food, such as through food packaging, processing, storage or other handling," per the FDA, were found to be hazardous to human health.
Researchers from the nonprofit Food Packaging Forum Foundation, which conducted the study, found at least 2,160 chemicals regularly contact food and "migrate into foodstuffs." Using guidelines from the UN's Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labeling of Chemicals (GHS), researchers found some of the chemicals related to food packaging and other materials were "carcinogenic, mutagenic, toxic to reproduction, harmful to specific organs after repeated exposure, [and] endocrine disrupting."
That's not the only concerning part. The researchers found that 13,211 of the 15,159 known food-contact chemicals lacked harmonized hazard data. That means the scientists could not determine from the available data whether those chemicals met the study's criteria for being hazardous.
"There's a lot of ways of establishing whether something is hazardous or not, and some methods are based very much just on computer models, looking at the structure, predicting something. And others are based on in vitro tests," Dr. Helene Wiesinger, scientific communication officer at the nonprofit and one of the researchers on the study, told Fortune. "And in some sense, the data that we used?' So this is the data we used, and the problem we ran into at that point was that there were huge data lags."

Ford Motor Company (NYSE: F) stock soared nearly 50% in May, as Wall Street began seeing the legacy automotive company as a hidden-gem infrastructure play as the demand for artificial intelligence (AI) and data center energy explodes. The stock has since given back about half of its May surge, and that gives investors who see long-term growth an opportunity to jump back in at a better price.

In May, the Detroit automaker announced its wholly owned subsidiary, called Ford Energy, which will develop and offer a battery energy storage system (BESS) for utility customers, AI data centers, and other large industrial and commercial customers. Savvy investors may have seen this coming, but for the most part, Ford built the new business behind the scenes, securing supply chains and preparing manufacturing. Ford Energy will manufacture battery cells, **** emble modules and containers, and offer sales and service support, which could be the lucrative part. That's because the automaker's Ford Energy DC block was designed to have a stable and predictable lifetime performance for about two decades.
To help connect the dots for investors wondering, AI data centers run intense workloads that put immense strain on the electrical grid. Ford's BESS give AI data centers security in the event of electrical grid fluctuations or blackouts, as the centers need an uninterrupted power supply. The systems will also provide power during AI workload spikes, charge when electricity is cheap, and discharge when prices peak, ultimately lowering costs and providing downtime protection.

In its early years, Chinese battery leader CATL focused on electric vehicles (EVs), riding the explosive growth of the global e-mobility market. The company has since taken a turn, aggressively expanding its energy storage business with a target for storage to generate 50% of its global sales by 2030.
Today, CATL stands as one of the world's largest grid storage suppliers, powering megaprojects such as Synergy's 2.4GW-hour (GWh) Collie Battery in Australia and the 1.4GWh Gemini Solar-Plus-Storage project in Nevada, US.
In an exclusive interview with Power Technology, CATL's managing director of Western Europe, Hank Zhao, and chief technology officer of AC (alternating current) systems, Bruce Li, share how they translate learnings from the company's automotive history to its stationary storage unit. They also discuss the operational realities of energy storage leadership, executive decision-making in a fast-changing industry, and bridging the gap between Chinese technology and European markets.
Hank Zhao (HZ): I joined the company's EV business in 2010 and stayed there for 11 years before moving to the energy storage unit in mid-2021.
When the company was founded, it started with e-mobility and stationary storage as its two main business directions. But I think before 2020, the business scale of storage was much smaller than for EVs, and we didn't see as many opportunities. Then from 2021, there was a rapid boom in demand for energy storage, especially in markets like the US and China.

Germany is risking gas shortages this winter if it turns out to be colder than previous years, the country's gas storage ******* ociation has warned.
With current gas storage levels at 54.52%, the industry ******* ociation, INES, said the best it could do by November 1 would be 77%. This would be more than the latest target set by the German government but less than the usual level of gas in storage as of November 1. This means that if it gets very cold in December and January, shortages may emerge.
However, it is far from certain that Germany's gas storage caverns would reach the 77% full level, the head of INES suggested, as quoted by Reuters. Reaching this level by November 1 would require an injection rate of 1 terawatt-hour daily, and injection rates over the past three weeks have been lower than that, Sebastian Heinemann said.
At current injection rates, Germany's storage will only be 63% as of November 1, he also warned. Per Gas Infrastructure Europe, Germany is currently injecting gas into storage at a rate of around 900 GWh daily.
If the winter is mild, 77% full gas storage would be enough to cover seasonal demand and leave Germany with 38% full storage by April 1, the executive noted. However, if the winter turns out colder than hoped for, some days in January could see a gap between gas demand and supply of as much as 25%.

If you are old enough, you remember a time before the internet. And you also remember Yahoo! and America Online being two of the most dominant internet companies early in the internet's development. The stocks were hot way back then, but today, both have basically flamed out and been swallowed up by other companies. Other internet companies became more dominant.
This isn't unusual in the tech sector, and investors piling into artificial intelligence (AI) stocks should keep that in mind. Sure, you could make a big bet on an AI stock that you think has winning tech, like a high-powered chip or a specialized application, or you could go with a picks-and-shovels play like Brookfield Renewable (NYSE: BEP)(NYSE: BEPC). Here's why this clean energy company could be the better bet.
Missed Nvidia in 2009? This Rare Signal Is Flashing Again. In 2009, a "Double Down" signal flashed for a little-known chipmaker called Nvidia. For the first time in years, that same "Total Conviction" signal is flashing for a company 1/100th the size of Nvidia. Continue »
Right now, artificial intelligence is a hot sector. Too many investors see it as a way to get rich quickly. And that has had pretty predictable consequences. For example, SoundHound (NASDAQ: SOUN) provides AI voice services. That's exciting, but probably not unique enough to build a business around. Still, its stock skyrocketed as investors jumped on the next hot thing. The shares have since plunged back to earth, down 70% from their 2024 peak.
The same could be happening now with Western Digital (NASDAQ: WDC), a maker of data storage devices. Huge demand from the AI build got investors excited about the stock, but that excitement has begun to fade. The stock has fallen roughly 40% from its recent highs. That's actually the second huge drawdown over the last three years. Even AI poster-child Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) has proven to be a highly volatile stock.

Nvidia (NVDA) CFO Colette Kress told investors last week that the company is seeing "extreme pricing conditions in memory," that the increases have "exceeded our prior expectations," and that they are "headed even higher into next year." Colette Kress said this in prepared remarks on Nvidia's fiscal second-quarter earnings call on Aug. 26, and then delivered the line companies almost never say plainly: "As a result, we are resetting expectations today."
Memory is not an exotic part. It is the DRAM in a phone, the RAM in a laptop, the storage in a game console, and one of the most expensive ingredients in a graphics card… and three companies make nearly all of it. Kress was describing the market for AI server memory, not the shelf price of a laptop, and Nvidia said nothing at all about consumer devices. But those products draw on the same suppliers and the same fabs, which is why a chip company's margin guidance is worth reading even if you never buy a chip.

Pakistan's troubled England tour has taken another unexpected turn, with the Pakistan Cricket Board reportedly taking mobile phones belonging to members of the national team into its custody ahead of the third and final Test at Edgbaston.

According to Pakistani 365 News, the players' devices have been handed over to the PCB and will remain with the board until the conclusion of the final Test. The report did not reveal the identities of the players whose phones were taken, while the PCB has not publicly stated why the devices were placed in its custody.

The development has raised questions about the extent of the authorities' powers over players' personal devices, particularly regarding when phones can be seized, retained or accessed and what safeguards apply to private communications.
Mobile phones are already subject to strict restrictions in international cricket, particularly inside areas designated as restricted during matches.

Under the ICC's Player and Match Officials Area regulations, players and support staff are not permitted to possess or use mobile phones or other communication devices inside restricted areas, including dressing rooms, during an international match.

Players are expected to place their devices in secure storage before entering such areas. The primary purpose of these regulations is to protect the integrity of international matches and prevent unauthorised communication.

However, those match-day restrictions are separate from a situation in which a player's personal phone is retained for an extended period.

The ICC Anti-Corruption Code gives authorised anti-corruption officials considerably broader powers when a formal integrity investigation is underway.

Under the code, an authorised anti-corruption official can make a written demand requiring a participant to surrender a mobile device or allow investigators to copy or download information from it when there are reasonable grounds to believe the material could be relevant to an investigation.

The information potentially covered by such a request is wide-ranging. It can include telephone and internet records, text messages, WhatsApp conversations, photographs, videos, audio files and other electronically stored documents.

Participants can also be required to provide passwords or access codes needed by investigators to obtain the relevant material.

A failure to comply with a legitimate demand during an anti-corruption investigation can itself result in disciplinary action.
Despite the ICC's provisions, the reported decision by the PCB to take possession of the players' phones does not, by itself, establish that an anti-corruption investigation is taking place.

There has been no confirmation that the PCB's action in England is connected to an integrity investigation involving corruption, betting or match-fixing. No player has been publicly accused of an integrity offence either.

There is also a distinction between the ICC's jurisdic

Under IRC Section 77, farmers can elect to report CCC loan proceeds as Schedule F income, triggering Social Security earnings even without selling a crop.
In 2026, net farm profit above $24,480 costs pre-retirement-age farmers $1 in Social Security benefits for every $2 earned over the limit.

Picture a Midwestern grain farmer with bins full of corn and prices too weak to tempt him into selling. Storage is already paid for, so he pledges the crop as collateral for a USDA Commodity Credit Corporation loan and keeps the grain in the bin. Cash arrives, but no customer has bought a bushel.

Seagate gained 6.3% and Western Digital rose 5.9% on September 4 even as the S&P 500 fell 0.4%. The pairing was consistent with investors rotating toward profitable storage infrastructure rather than making a random defensive trade. Generative AI creates enormous data sets, checkpoints, logs, and retrieval stores, so the storage layer can benefit even when investors are less willing to pay for distant software profits. Seagate Technology Holdings plc (NASDAQ:STX) and Western Digital Corporation (NASDAQ:WDC) represent different ways to express that demand.

Seagate is the mass-capacity hard-drive specialist. In its latest fiscal-year release, management attributed performance to robust cloud data-center demand and argued that AI-driven data creation should support durable demand for high-capacity storage. The bull case is economic density: hyperscalers still need low-cost capacity behind expensive compute. The bear case is concentration and cyclicality. A few cloud buyers can change purchasing schedules quickly, and areal-density transitions can disrupt yields or costs.
Insider Monkey's filings database counted 131 hedge funds holding Seagate Technology Holdings plc (NASDAQ:STX) at June 30, up from 93 at March 31. Palestra Capital Management, managed by Andrew Immerman and Jeremy Schiffman, reported 386,123 shares, about 31% more than the 294,000 shares disclosed in Q1. That growing cohort indicates wider professional participation, not a guarantee that managers still held the shares when they rallied.
Western Digital offers exposure to hard drives after the Sandisk separation simplified its public-company story. Its appeal is similar: higher-capacity drives can monetize the expanding archive behind AI training and inference. The bear case is that cloud customers have purchasing leverage, while rapid shifts between flash, disk, and emerging architectures can change the mix more quickly than depreciation schedules do.

Wall Street delivered a sharp split on September 4. The S&P 500 fell 0.4% after a stronger-than-expected jobs report lifted rate concerns, but Sandisk jumped 11.9% and Micron gained 6.1%. The divergence matters because it was not a broad risk-on move. The pattern was consistent with investors rotating toward memory and storage suppliers that help keep AI systems fed with data. That put Sandisk Corporation (NASDAQ:SNDK) and Micron Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ:MU) at the center of the session.
Source: Sandisk Corporation
Sandisk offers the purer NAND and flash-storage argument. Its August results established data center as a key growth pillar, and management said it had signed five more new-business-model agreements since April. The bull case is that AI expands high-value enterprise storage demand while tighter supply supports pricing. The bear case is cyclicality: customer agreements cannot eliminate inventory swings, pricing reversals, or the execution risk that comes with a newly independent public company.
Professional ownership broadened before Friday's rally. Insider Monkey counted 128 hedge funds holding Sandisk Corporation (NASDAQ:SNDK) at June 30, up from 114 at March 31. Leopold Aschenbrenner's Situational Awareness LP disclosed 2,495,344 shares, about 119% more than the 1,140,119 shares reported in Q1. Those filings are quarter-end snapshots and do not show what the funds did during the September move.
Micron supplies both high-bandwidth memory and conventional DRAM and NAND. Its fiscal third-quarter revenue reached $41.46 billion, while Cloud Memory revenue rose to $13.77 billion and Core Data Center revenue to $11.52 billion. That operating leverage is the bull case. The counterargument is that extraordinary margins invite capacity additions, and today's scarcity economics may normalize faster than investors expect.
