WDC is trading at $272.30 (+3.7%) in pre-market as the stock tracks a broader sector recovery following yesterday's sharp post-earnings decline.
- The stock fell 8.2% to $262.56 in the previous session (dropping as low as $250.23 after-hours) despite beating Q2 2026 estimates with an EPS of $2.13 and revenue of $3.1B.
- Today's bounce aligns with a general market uptrend, with the S&P 500 up 0.5% and Nasdaq up 0.6%, as investors reassess the company's strong cloud growth and Q3 guidance.
- No fresh company-specific news has been released; the move appears to be a technical rebound as the semiconductor sector stabilizes.
