On September 8, Seagate Technology PLC rose 3.01% in pre-market trading, trading at approximately $856.41 per share, with turnover of roughly $1.81 million. The advance was driven by sustained strength across the global storage sector, fueled by surging AI infrastructure demand.
On the news front, global storage industry momentum remains elevated. According to CFM flash memory market data, Q2 global DRAM market revenue reached $147.024 billion, surging 55.9% quarter-over-quarter to a record high, as server-side AI demand propelled both storage volumes and pricing higher. Peer stocks moved in tandem, with SanDisk rising 3.85% and Western Digital gaining 3.11%, extending the sector's recent strong run. Additionally, SanDisk's recent inclusion in the MSCI World Index has further elevated market attention toward the storage sector and strengthened expectations for capital inflows, providing a positive spillover for peers including Seagate Technology PLC.
It is worth noting that Seagate CEO William D. Mosley recently reduced holdings totaling approximately 19,690 shares in early September, a development investors may wish to monitor alongside the broader bullish sector trend.
