Citi significantly boosted its price target for SanDisk (SNDK), nearly doubling it from $280 to $490, while maintaining a Buy rating, citing robust demand fueled by the AI buildout.
- The target hike was specifically driven by anticipated margin growth, robust demand for NAND flash memory, and limited supply.
- SNDK has been positioned as the top-performing S&P 500 stock year-to-date, benefiting from the ongoing memory chip supply shortage.
- The stock continued its steep ascent, closing at $501.29 on January 21.
