The All Ordinaries Index (ASX: XAO) is down 5% over the past month.

But you can't point the finger at this ASX All Ords share.

The Weebit Nano Ltd (ASX: WBT) share price has been on a tear over the last month, up 59%.

In earlier trading today, shares in the memory and semiconductor technology company were up 5%, marking a fresh multi-year high.

In fact, you'd have to go back to 2012 to find the All Ords share trading at a higher valuation.

The Weebit Nano share price has slid in intraday trading since notching that new milestone. Shares are currently down 3.8%, changing hands for $7.86 apiece.

At the current share price, the company has a market cap of $1.4 billion.

What's piquing investor interest in the ASX All Ords share?

A lot has gone right for Weebit this month.

On Monday, 27 February, the ASX All Ords share reported on its United States roadshow presentation. The company profiled its embedded resistive random-access memory (ReRAM) – next-generation non-volatile memory (NVM) technology.

(Quite a mouthful, I know!)

Noting that geopolitics is driving countries to invest tens of billions of dollars locally into developing their own semiconductors, Weebit highlighted that memory comprises more than a third of the spending.

The ASX All Ords share closed up 10.3% on the day.

And February commenced well for Weebit.

Its shares were placed in a trading halt on 27 January following an administrative error. But Weebit returned to the ASX boards after seeking court orders from the Supreme Court of New South Wales.

The stock closed 5.5% higher on the day.
