Micron shares climbed as analysts pointed to surprisingly strong demand for its DRAM and NAND chips, growing confidence in its next-generation HBM4 products, and an improving outlook for the second and third quarters. A big options trader also locked in profits on earlier bearish March put positions, underscoring how sentiment around the stock has quickly turned more positive.
Riding this wave of optimism, Wedbush and Wells Fargo both raised their price targets on Micron while keeping bullish ratings in place. Their updated calls signal that major Wall Street players now see more upside ahead for the chipmaker, reinforcing the stock’s recent momentum in the market.
