Software’s $2-for-$1 Problem

Delivering World-Class Financial Research Since 1999Editor’s note: AI may claim yet another victim…This technology has been disrupting all corners of the market. And software stocks have been among the most vulnerable.According to Joe Austin, senior analyst at our corporate affiliate Chaikin Analytics, there are still growth prospects for the software industry. But with the panic around AI, there’s also real risk.In today’s Masters Series, originally from the February 9 issue of the Chaikin PowerFeed daily e-letter, Joe explains whether the recent sell-off is a warning sign or an opportunity… Software’s $2-for-$1 ProblemBy Joe Austin, senior analyst, Chaikin AnalyticsPlenty of folks worry about AI eating their business…And software companies have already found out just how painful that is.The S&P North American Technology Software Index fell 15% in January. That marked its worst monthly performance since 2008.And the Power Gauge saw this coming…In our system, we measure the software space with the State Street SPDR S&P Software & Services Fund (XSW).The Power Gauge first turned “bearish” on XSW back in mid-November. And the fund has collapsed in recent months. Take a look…However, growth prospects for the software industry itself still look pretty good…Late last year, IT consulting and research firm Gartner projected that global software spending would grow by more than 15% this year.Industry forecasts project software sales will grow from around $900 billion in 2025 to about $2.9 trillion by 2035. That’s a compound annual growth rate of more than 12%.So is the current panic in the space creating opportunity… or are investors right to worry?The fear makes sense. AI will surely disrupt many parts of the software industry.But to gauge the real risk, you need to understand the economics of how software companies make money.And it all comes down to one important point many investors overlook…Recommended Links:Log In to Marc Chaikin’s New $5,000 Earnings DetectorIt’s a website that shows you which AI stocks could still rise 100% by spotting the biggest potential earnings beats before they occur. Last year alone, back tests show that you could have doubled your money seven times. Until February 17, get FREE access here (no purchase required).Washington’s ‘Project Vault’ Changes EverythingThe White House’s $10 billion resource-stockpile program turns the U.S. government into a massive buyer of these critical minerals, creating a once-in-a-generation chance to make extraordinary returns. That’s the urgent message the man widely considered to be the greatest resource investor of all time is sharing today. Get full details here BEFORE the White House buys.There’s often a big gap between when software companies book revenue and when they actually make money…I started covering software stocks in the 1980s.Back then, software was a product that you bought. I even remember when it came in a box, with CDs you had to install.But today, companies sell most software via subscriptions. Customers rent rather than buy.This is what the industry calls “SaaS” – or “Software as a Service.”Today, SaaS is the way the industry does business. It’s expected that SaaS accounted for 85% of all software sales last year.It’s easy to see why SaaS is popular. There’s no massive upfront capital expenditure. Customers pay monthly or annually instead.That shifts the cost of the software from a capital expense (hard to approve) to an operating expense (easy to approve).But for software companies, this model comes with two unique risks…The first is customer acquisition cost (“CAC”). That’s how much money a company spends to acquire a new customer.The second is the payback period on that investment. That’s how long it takes for those monthly subscription payments to cover the CAC.This model works as long as growth continues. New customer revenue keeps flowing in. That covers ongoing expenses. And it creates what looks like healthy cash flow.The software company uses new customer money to fund operations while waiting for older customers to pay back those acquisition costs.But when growth stops, the results are brutal.Let’s say a company needs 18 months to recover what it spent on a customer. If people start canceling after 12 months, the company is stuck.It poured millions into customers with no payback.And CACs for software companies have soared in recent years. They’re up more than 200% since 2017.For top-quartile software companies (the most efficient of the group), the average payback period is now 15.9 months. That’s up about 30% from 12.3 months, the average payback period in 2020.Today, software companies spend about $2 for every dollar of recurring revenue they acquire. That’s a two-year breakeven timeline before factoring in ongoing service costs.The payoff is still positive for most companies. But margins are shrinking fast. The gap between what companies spend and what they earn back keeps narrowing.The SaaS model works well so long as customers stick around. But AI threatens to break that assumption – by either offering cheaper alternatives or letting companies build solutions in-house.And that’s exactly what has been sending investors running for the exits…To keep an eye on this, I’m monitoring XSW. But for now, the Power Gauge says to stay on the sidelines…XSW gets a “very bearish” rating in our system right now. Looking at its individual holdings, 54 companies are “bearish” or worse… and 78 are in “neutral” territory. Meanwhile, only five are “bullish” or better.Everyone worries about AI eating their business. But software companies might have the most to lose, because their entire model depends on customers sticking around for years.It’s a problem that won’t resolve itself quickly. Until we see how AI reshapes customer-retention patterns, software stocks remain higher-risk.I’m not saying that every company in the space is doomed. But right now, the Power Gauge sees much better opportunities elsewhere.Good investing,Joe AustinEditor’s note: According to Chaikin Analytics founder Marc Chaikin, a brutal rupture is fast approaching the AI sector… and less than 2% of stocks will be spared.But if you understand what’s coming, you could avoid a devastating loss while also potentially doubling your money.With the Power Gauge’s help, you can position yourself for what’s coming. Click here to learn more.You have received this e-mail as part of your subscription to Stansberry Digest.

Sunday’s Exclusive Content

The Memory Supercycle Is Here—2 Winners From 1 Breakup

Submitted by Jeffrey Neal Johnson. Originally Published: 2/4/2026. 

Key Takeaways

• SanDisk is experiencing explosive growth driven by the need for high-speed drives that save the progress of artificial intelligence models during training.
• Western Digital is securing its position as a pillar of stability by returning capital to shareholders while providing the data lakes needed for storage.
• A shortage of manufacturing capacity for standard memory chips has created a favorable supply environment, supporting durable pricing power for the industry.

While the broader stock market has spent years fixated on processors that enable artificial intelligence (AI), a major rotation is occurring into the hardware that provides AI with memory. About one year ago, Western Digital (NASDAQ: WDC) spun off its flash memory business to create SanDisk (NASDAQ: SNDK) as a standalone company. The market response has been historic.

SanDisk has surged roughly 1,500% since listing in early 2025, including a 140% gain in the past 30 days. As of Feb. 3, 2026, SanDisk stock is trading near all-time highs of $665. Its former parent, Western Digital, has also posted strong returns—up about 350% over the last year and trading in the $280–$290 range.

[Revealed] The $100 Starlink Pre-IPO Jackpot! (Ad)

Wall Street Journal best-selling author James Altucher has uncovered a way to get a pre-IPO stake BEFORE Starlink goes public.

All it takes is just a few minutes of time and as little as $100 to get started. Plus, you can take action right inside your regular brokerage account.Click here now to see how to take action.

This divergence signals the arrival of a memory supercycle. The infrastructure required for AI has bifurcated the storage market into two distinct lanes: extreme speed and massive capacity. The split of SanDisk and Western Digital unlocked value by allowing each company to specialize in one of those lanes, creating two different investment profiles.

SanDisk: The Vertical Growth Engine

SanDisk is trading as a high-octane proxy for AI processing speed. The company’s recent results suggest this rally is being driven by fundamentals rather than pure speculation. In its earnings report released on Jan. 29, 2026, SanDisk delivered numbers that surprised the Street:

• Revenue: $3.03 billion, up 61% year-over-year.
• Earnings Per Share (EPS): $6.20, beating Wall Street estimates by nearly $3.
• Gross margins: Expanded to 51.1%, up from 29.9% in the prior quarter.

The primary catalyst, however, is the forward guidance. Management projects EPS for the next quarter will roughly double sequentially to $12–$14. If that forecast holds, the price-to-earnings ratio (P/E) would compress, making the stock cheaper relative to its expected earnings power.

The technical driver behind this growth is a phenomenon known as AI checkpointing. During training, massive AI models must continually save their progress to avoid losing work if a system fails. A crash without a recent checkpoint can waste millions in compute time and electricity.

To avoid that risk, data centers rely on SanDisk’s enterprise solid-state drives (SSDs) to write enormous volumes of data instantly. That demand is effectively inelastic: companies cannot afford to train large models without reliable, high-speed checkpointing.

As a result, SanDisk is guiding to gross margins of 65%–67% next quarter, underscoring significant pricing power.

Wall Street has already adjusted its outlook. After the report, UBS set a new price target of $1,000, Cantor Fitzgerald raised its target to $800, and both Barclays and Citigroup boosted theirs to $750. Those upward revisions reflect a growing consensus that demand for fast storage has been underestimated.

Western Digital: The Value Fortress

While SanDisk chases aggressive growth, Western Digital has positioned itself as a fortress of stability and capital return. The company focuses on cold storage—the massive repositories where data accumulates before it is processed.

On Feb. 3, 2026, Western Digital’s board authorized an additional $4 billion share-repurchase program, signaling management’s view that the stock remains attractive despite recent gains.

Western Digital reported revenue of $3.02 billion for fiscal Q2, a 25% year-over-year increase. Unlike the volatile flash market, the hard disk drive (HDD) segment offers stability. AI training sets consist of petabytes of raw video, text, and images—data that is often too costly to store on flash and instead resides in data lakes built on Western Digital’s high-capacity drives.

Key elements of the Western Digital thesis include:

• The 100TB roadmap: WDC outlined a path to 100-terabyte drives, which are essential for hyperscalers.
• UltraSMR adoption: New UltraSMR drives, including the current 32TB and upcoming 40TB models, now account for more than half of shipments, helping expand margins.
• Long-term agreements: The company has secured purchase agreements with top customers that extend through 2028.

For income-focused investors, Western Digital also offers yield support, combining the $4 billion buyback authorization with a quarterly cash dividend of $0.125 per share.

The Wafer Wars & Zero-Sum Supply Chain

Some investors worry that rapid price increases in memory will spur overcapacity and a subsequent crash. This cycle looks different because of a zero-sum constraint in semiconductor manufacturing. Fabrication plants are prioritizing High Bandwidth Memory (HBM), which is physically stacked onto AI accelerators.

Because fabs can process only a limited number of silicon wafers each month, allocating capacity to HBM reduces the wafers available for standard flash memory and storage controllers. That physical limitation creates a supply floor—manufacturers cannot quickly flood the market with new chips when raw materials and fab time are being diverted elsewhere. This constraint supports a more durable pricing environment for both SanDisk and Western Digital.

Further reducing operational risk for SanDisk, the company recently extended its joint venture with manufacturing partner Kioxia through 2034, securing wafer supply for the next decade.

SanDisk is also developing a new architecture called High Bandwidth Flash (HBF). Unlike traditional storage, HBF places flash memory closer to the processor, potentially handling AI inference tasks that previously required more expensive DRAM. If successful, HBF could open a materially larger addressable market for SanDisk and help justify its premium valuation.

The Storage Supercycle: Sprinters and Marathon Runners

The AI trade has evolved beyond the chips that “think” to the storage that holds and moves the data those chips use. The spin-off of SanDisk from Western Digital has been a strategic move, creating two distinct investment opportunities from a single business.

SanDisk offers high-beta exposure to the immediate, speed-driven needs of AI. It is volatile, but its earnings are growing rapidly and may validate its valuation. Western Digital offers a more conservative, infrastructure-like profile: lower volatility, consistent capital returns through buybacks and dividends, and exposure to the long-term explosion in data volume. In 2026, many portfolios may find room for both the sprinter and the marathon runner.
