Seagate Technology (STX), a global leader in data storage solutions and hard disk drives, has emerged as one of the more unexpected winners of the AI-driven market rally in 2026. Besides some obvious hottest winners last month, Seagate closed April with 59% gain and is up 168.2% year-to-date (YTD). This spike was fueled by strong earnings and a rapidly strengthening outlook.
Seagate’s performance hasn’t gone unnoticed on Wall Street, with price estimates reaching as high as $1000, implying a 35.4% upside from current levels.
