SanDisk Beats but Falls 4% Post-Earnings: Classic Sell the News?

SanDisk (SNDK) delivered above-consensus Q3 revenue and earnings, yet shares dropped 4.42% after hours in a textbook sell-the-news reaction — Seagate's outperformance had already fueled a sustained storage sector rally, raising the bar significantly and pricing in the beat ahead of results. The AI storage demand narrative remains intact. But is SNDK's post-earnings decline a short-term shakeout or an early sign of trend reversal — and would a drop below $1,000 represent a buy signal?
