About Western Digital

Western Digital is a major maker of data storage, producing hard disk drives and, historically, flash memory products used in data centres, PCs and consumer devices. Its business is cyclical, swinging with memory prices and demand, and it has undergone restructuring to sharpen its focus. The dividend was suspended during an industry downturn and has only recently been reinstated, so the record of continuity is short. The yield is very low and the payout modest relative to earnings, meaning income is a secondary consideration in what remains a volatile, cyclical technology holding.
