Micron shares are climbing as investors pile into AI-related chipmakers, with the stock riding a sector-wide rally driven by hyperscalers racing to lock in scarce AI infrastructure. The company’s position in a tight supply environment, where critical memory components are in high demand, is fueling expectations for stronger earnings and long-term growth.
Analyst enthusiasm is amplifying the move, led by DA Davidson, which just issued a Street-high price target of $1,000 on Micron. The firm pointed to Micron’s structural edge in the AI memory supercycle, backed by the launch of a record 245TB SSD and the disclosure that its high-bandwidth memory capacity is already sold out through 2026.
