WDC is trading at $252.87 (-6.37%) amid a global risk-off sentiment triggered by escalating U.S.-Israel military operations against Iran, including strikes on nuclear sites and the closure of the Strait of Hormuz.

  • The decline aligns with broader market weakness, with the S&P 500 and Nasdaq both down 2% as geopolitical tensions intensify.
  • No company-specific announcements or earnings were released today; the move is driven entirely by external macroeconomic factors.
  • This follows a 3.44% drop on March 2, when the stock was trading at $270.08.
