SanDisk (SNDK) Leads Tech Losers With Double-Digit Decline

SanDisk Corp. (NASDAQ:SNDK) is one of the 10 Stocks Investors Are Running Away From.

SanDisk snapped a three-day winning streak on Tuesday, slashing 12.63 percent of its value to close at $1,673.97 apiece, after a heavy selloff in the wider market, thanks to the re-escalating tensions between the US and Iran.

Investors appeared to have cashed in on gains in high-growth industries, such as semiconductors, while parking funds to mitigate risks, after President Donald Trump recently announced the reinstatement of what he called an “Iranian blockade” in the Strait of Hormuz.

The announcement heavily dampened investor sentiment despite Trump’s clarification that cargoes from other countries will be able to pass through the Straight freely and safely.
