Sandisk stock is rising as an analyst pointed to artificial intelligence trends that could reshape demand for memory. According to Rosenblatt, the growth of larger AI models and the increasing importance of inference are transforming NAND from a commodity into a critical component, a shift that could help propel the company’s shares to new heights.

The analyst said that next-generation AI workloads require far more high-performance storage to feed data-hungry models, especially during inference when responses are generated in real time. That demand could tighten supply and support pricing for NAND, improving profitability for memory makers tied to AI-centric buildouts.
Investors have been watching AI infrastructure spending from cloud providers and enterprises, which has already lifted some chip and storage names. If NAND continues to evolve into a must-have for AI training and inference pipelines, Sandisk could benefit from stronger margins and steadier cycles, the analyst added.
For Hawai‘i-based investors and tech workers, the takeaway is that AI’s growth is not only about processors. Storage, including NAND, is becoming a foundational layer for delivering reliable and fast AI services across data centers and devices.
