Micron Technology (MU-Q) is experiencing a remarkable surge, largely driven by skyrocketing demand for memory products, particularly due to the ongoing data center boom and advancements in AI. However, many experts caution against chasing the stock at current levels, as it has already appreciated significantly this year, with some reviews indicating price increases of over 200%. While the overall sentiment remains positive about its growth potential, the cyclical nature of the memory market raises concerns about sustainability, especially as competition increases. Analysts express mixed opinions, with some viewing it as a core holding due to its strong earnings and positioning in the memory sector, while others express concerns about overvaluation and potential for a market correction. The company’s revenue growth is impressive, yet participants are advised to consider market timing and potential pullbacks before making additional investments.

COMMENT

It's done very well, tripling, and a stock like this will stall even on good news.

BUY

The chip shortage is getting worse, so the semis will go higher, maybe a lot. Last week, Micron said D-RAMs and flash memory chips are in short supply. Demand for cell phone parts is high; 5G is demanding more parts. There's not enough being manufactured.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Aug 11/20, Up 92.6%)Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly Our PAST TOP PICK with MU is continuing to progress well. We now recommend trailing up the stop (from $55) to $80. Along with the recommendation to cover 50% previously, this would all but guarantee a minimum return on investment of 50%.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Mar 31/20, Up 109%) A manufacturer in the semiconductor field. More demand than supply, so right place at right time. Beat top and bottom lines in January. Price target of $108.90.

BUY

They report next week. Their D-RAM and Flash businesses are humming, so he expects numbers to leap. The stock seems to be anticipating that.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

We have seen a run in semiconductor names. Recently has had a nice surge. The problem is that it is quite cyclical. When the market declines, you want to buy it. From a practical point of view, he wants structural growth stories that are sustainable in downturns. It is a little rich right now.

BUY

It's more than doubled since March, but has it gotten ahead of itself? Yesterday it reported a top and bottom line beat with terrific guidance. It rallied today, but closed negative. Probably there was profit-taking, but sees more runway ahead.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Aug 11/20, Up 34%)Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly Our PAST TOP PICK in MU has achieved its $64 objective. To be disciplined, we are recommending covering 50% of the position and trailing up the stop to $50 – just above our initial buy recommendation.

COMMENT

Their D-RAM business may be saved by their disc drive business, but he doesn't see a stock rise unless management says they see tightness coming in D-RAM.

BUY

He targets $63.70. Their last reported quarter was weak, but beat the street only because the street had lowered expectations. But this could fuel optimism for the stock. They continue to invest in R&D. It's innovative and diversified to meet customer needs. It trades at only 5x enterprise value to EBITDA.

HOLD

The only semi that everybody hates. Do not sell it. Broadcom and Marvel are better, though, in this space.

TOP PICK

When earnings were released in June, beating estimates by 20%, the market reacted driving the share price to over $54. The company raised its earnings guidance for Q4 ending August to $0.95-$1.15 EPS versus analyst estimates of $0.80. The stay-at-home trend has been strong for their data centers and laptops. Since then the share price has retraced, call it sell on fact or simply profit taking. Now the shares look prime for a buy at these levels with upside to over $64 -- over 30% upside. We would use $42.50 as a stop loss. Yield 0% (Analysts’ price target is $64.95)

TOP PICK

In these volatile times, have a risk management process. He uses a hedging overlap. He loves MU in the semi space, trading at 5x enterprise value to EBITDA. This just beat earnings even in this time. $63 is his own target. (Analysts’ price target is $61.37)

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Feb 20/19, Up 41%) It moved up quite a lot but now analysts are starting to talk about renewed pricing power on DRAM memory. It's more a trading stock. They really fixed their balance sheet.
