On October 2, 2026, Seagate $STX and Western Digital $WDC each fell 10.2%, while Quantum $QMCO rose 8.2% to its $34.50 peak. $QMCO’s drop started the week before it fired its CFO on October 9, along with a selloff in hard drive stocks. Toshiba, which makes hard drives like $STX and $WDC, said on October 2 that its Philippine plant is “aiming to nearly double its annual production capacity” of data center hard drives by its fiscal year starting April 2027. More hard drive supply could (1) hurt $QMCO by easing the disk shortage that helped push customers toward tape, as I covered in my April 22 tape primer, and (2) help $QMCO by easing the constraints on “certain disk drives” that CEO Hugues Meyrath mentioned on the June-quarter call. From October 2 to October 9, $QMCO fell 11.8%, vs. 4.3-8.0% for SanDisk $SNDK, $STX, and $WDC. Then, from the October 9 close, before the firing was disclosed, to October 27, $QMCO fell another 33.4%, vs. 4.1-17.5% for the three storage stocks. So the storage selloff explains part of the drop from $34.50, but most of it came after the firing, which is specific to $QMCO.

If First Solar $FSLR wins its patent case at the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC), TOYO Co., Ltd’s $TOYO cells could be barred from the U.S. First Solar filed a complaint at the ITC on February 24, 2026, claiming certain TOPCon cells, a common high-efficiency silicon cell design, infringe one of its patents. The ITC voted on March 26 to open Investigation 337-TA-1494, naming $TOYO, its Texas subsidiary, VSUN (the Vietnamese panel maker $TOYO was carved out of), and VSUN’s U.S. arm among 47 respondents. The ITC’s target date is November 15, 2027. The patent case won’t be decided before late 2027, but it’s another way $TOYO’s cells could be stopped at the border. I’m not worried about the patent case yet, since the ITC’s target date is more than a year away and dozens of other respondents face the same claim.
