Premium on Cloud Growth, Volatility Remains
WDC is priced as a cloud and AI winner, but volatility is high. The company’s 45.5% revenue growth stands out, yet 1-year volatility of 54.8% shows how quickly sentiment can turn. Even a small dip in cloud demand can hit the stock hard. This is not a stock for the impatient.
