Sandisk CDR (SNDK-T): Shares surged 18.36% this week after CIBC launched new U.S. CDR listings on the TSX, including Sandisk CDRs, giving Canadian investors easier access to the semiconductor and AI storage sector with built-in currency hedging. Strong momentum in AI-related hardware stocks also boosted sentiment.
