Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Reached its target in 58 days.
The thesis — published October 25, 2025
- Lay out the big idea - Why demand matters - Simple buy plan - What to watch Micron makes memory chips that AI servers need, especially high-end HBM. Supply is tightening, which can lift prices and profits. The trend looks strong: the recent average price is climbing and lots more people are buying than usual. Cooler inflation helps chip stocks. After a 140% rise this year, consider dips near $215-$220 and a firm close above $226.
Primary drivers
- AI demand for advanced memory is squeezing supply and likely lifting prices
- Recent average price rising quickly; lots more people are buying than usual
- Up 140% this year as estimates improve and large investors show continued interest
- Cooler inflation backdrop is improving sentiment toward chip companies
