Western Digital Corporation (WDC) closed at $450.26 on September 25, 2026, declining 4.95% over the prior 24 hours. The drop trimmed what had been a strong short-term recovery for the data storage company.

Despite the single-day pullback, WDC posted a 7-day gain of 6.20%, reflecting meaningful momentum over the broader weekly period. The stock's 30-day change stood at -0.11%, indicating that the share price is roughly flat compared to one month ago.

Western Digital's market capitalization was recorded at $170.78 billion as of the close. The company ranks among the larger names in the technology hardware sector by that measure.

The session's decline illustrates the short-term volatility that has characterized WDC's trading pattern, even as the weekly performance points to a recovery from earlier lows within that timeframe.
