China declined Trump's offer to purchase Nvidia's H200 AI chips, opting to develop its own domestic chip industry instead. While Nvidia and Micron stocks fell on this news, Sandisk stock rose. The article argues this is logical because despite China's pullback, there remains a global supply crunch in memory chips, allowing Sandisk to continue selling all the NAND memory chips it can produce regardless of China's demand.

Why Did Sandisk Stock Pop Today?

Micron and Nvidia stocks fell after reports that Chinese companies did not purchase Nvidia H200 AI chips at the Trump-Xi summit. China appears focused on developing its own semiconductor industry rather than buying advanced U.S. chips. While the author notes near-term demand for AI memory chips remains strong, the incident raises long-term concerns about Chinese competition in the semiconductor market.

Why Micron Stock Just Dropped

Applied Materials reported strong Q2 results with revenue of $7.91B (beating estimates) and gross margins at 25-year highs driven by AI demand. The company issued bullish Q3 guidance of $8.95B revenue and raised full-year semiconductor equipment growth outlook to over 30%. However, shares fell 2.82% in premarket trading Friday as investors engaged in profit-taking despite the positive results.

AI Demand Pushes Applied Materials To Highest Margins In 25 Years

The Nasdaq 100 has surged 15-17% since late March, driven almost entirely by a narrow group of semiconductor and AI-related stocks. However, the rally shows dangerous warning signs: extreme concentration risk with just a handful of chip stocks accounting for 84% of gains, deteriorating market breadth with most stocks declining, and critically low volume on the monthly chart relative to price advances. This lack of conviction and broad participation suggests the rally is unsustainable and vulnerable to a sharp reversal once the leading chip stocks exhaust themselves or face headwinds.

Nasdaq 100 Rally Looks Increasingly Unsustainable Amid Narrow Chip-Led Surge

The Dow Jones climbed back above 50,000 driven by Cisco's strong earnings beat and guidance raise, while Nvidia gained on news of Chinese H200 chip approvals. However, the rally appears fragile as inflation data runs hot with import prices spiking 1.9% and energy costs surging, offsetting positive consumer resilience metrics. The Trump-Xi summit in Beijing provided mild sentiment support but delivered limited concrete deliverables.

Dow Jones Rally Looks Fragile With Inflation Data Running Hot

Both Alphabet and Micron Technology have benefited significantly from AI growth, with Micron's stock surging over 800% due to high demand for memory chips in data centers, and Alphabet's stock rising over 150% driven by Google Gemini AI model adoption and cloud services growth. While Micron benefits from a temporary supply-demand imbalance that could reverse in a cyclical downturn, Alphabet's diversified AI strategy spanning chips, models, software, and data centers positions it for more sustainable long-term growth.
