Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Reached its target in 24 days.
The thesis — published September 12, 2025
Micron is riding the boom in memory chips for AI servers. A major bank raised its target to $175, and easier Fed policy could lift investor appetite. Trading shows lots more people are buying than usual, even after a big run. Demand for HBM and DRAM in AI should help. Prefer buying pullbacks for a better trade-off between potential gain and loss over the next three months, as peers stay firm and supply is kept in check.
Primary drivers
- AI servers are soaking up HBM and DRAM, boosting demand for Micron's chips
- Citi raising its price target to $175 reinforces the outlook and confidence
- Unusually strong recent buying shows solid interest in the stock from investors
- Market backdrop near term favors chip makers as conditions improve for semis
