Shares of Super Micro Computer (SMCI) hit a new 52-week low on Thursday morning as the AI-focused hardware company struggles with filing its quarterly report (Form 10-Q) for the period ending September 30.

Like a frog in a pot of boiling water, things keep getting more uncomfortable for Super Micro Computer (NASDAQ: SMCI) as times goes on. Supermicro's growing accounting debacle began in late August as the target of a short report from Hindenburg Research.

Super Micro shares are down more than 80% since the company joined the S&P 500 in March. That poor performance could catch the eye of the index committee, an expert said.
