Micron Technology (MU-Q) is a company that has experienced significant volatility, with experts offering mixed views on its prospects. Several analysts note that while the company has benefited from a current memory chip shortage and strong demand driven by AI and data centers, the stock's substantial increase in value this year raises concerns about its sustainability. Some experts warn investors to consider reducing their positions or selling, citing potential future supply gluts and increasing competition. In contrast, a few analysts maintain that long-term demand for memory will be bolstered by the evolution of AI technology, pointing to historical strength in the company's performance. Overall, the stock's present valuation and future trajectory remain highly debated among experts, with warnings about its speculative nature.
He sold a third of his holding. The king of DRAM semis. Likes it, but buy it cheaper. By the end of the year buy it at $60 then $55.

Premium contentWe reiterate MU, one of the world's largest producers of computer memory chips, as a TOP PICK. Although the sector is in a cyclical slow down, the company continues to build cash reserves, buy back stock and retire its debt. It trades at under 2x book. We continue to recommend a stop at $52, looking to achieve $75 -- 17% potential upside. Yield 0.7%
(Analysts’ price target is $74.79)
Premium contentThe decline in demand for PCs is unsustainable, and we've moved past the phase of cheap computes for our homes during Covid. If Samsung indeed cuts production, there will be a Q3 upside surprise in computers and semis. Whenever the semis cycle turns positive, Micron goes from the worst performer to the best. Buy this now.
Both Samsung and Micron are pulling back in production, so history tells us we are within two quarters before semis bottom in pricing. Can't tell the exact timing, but you need to start buying Micron NOW, which is why shares jumped today even after a lousy quarter. Semis are a boom and bust business with gluts and shortages. Highly cyclical.
