Reason: Micron reported fiscal fourth-quarter EPS of $33.42 versus $31.82 consensus on September 30 and rose on October 1 per the desk's brief; on Friday, October 2, it slipped while $STX and $WDC each fell about 10% in one session. MarketWatch (October 2) tied the drop to investor worry that Toshiba will raise output of a key AI storage product; news re-pulled 2026-10-03 adds nothing further. $WDC is now only barely above its 200-day; $STX remains well above. The rest of the lane keeps triple-digit-plus years.

As of 2026-10-02. Status reads the 200-day trend first and RSI second; Action is a trend-hold lens: an extended name is never an entry, and a name below its 200-day with a negative year is not a dip.
What Changed Since 2026-09-25
- STX and WDC: roughly -10% on the day after MarketWatch (October 2) reported worry that Toshiba will raise output of a key AI storage product; WDC's cushion over its 200-day shrank sharply.
- MU: post-print pullback; the desk's pivot level is the thing to watch for a flag.
- SNDK: down on the day and week, still +1,285% on the year.
- Roster unchanged since September 25: no entrants, no dropouts.
