SanDisk to Replace Interpublic in S&P 500 Following Western Digital Split
SanDisk shares surged 7% after-hours following its S&P 500 inclusion, replacing Interpublic. This highlights the growing importance of technology, particularly flash memory, in the market. SanDisk, spun off from Western Digital nine months prior, is targeting growth in gaming, cameras, security systems, and hyperscale data centers. Q3 revenues climbed 23% to $2.31B. Success depends on innovation amid competition from Samsung and Micron. The S&P 500 increasingly reflects the dominance of technology companies.
