Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Reached its target in 53 days.
The thesis — published October 30, 2025
Micron makes the memory chips behind today's AI surge. A big bank raised its target to $240, Samsung posted record memory sales, and forecasts point to record demand by 2026. The stock has run up, so we aim to buy only on dips. Recent average price trends look healthy. In the next 1-3 months, growing HBM and DDR5 output could push a retest of highs, but pricing and supply limits remain key risks.
Primary drivers
- Demand for HBM and DDR5 memory is climbing as AI servers need more
- A major analyst raised the price target to $240, signaling confidence
- Uptrend looks strong based on recent average price and steady momentum
- Reports from peers and suppliers point to a stronger memory cycle ahead
