Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Reached its target in 56 days.
The thesis — published November 3, 2025
Memory chip prices are improving. Reports say Samsung is delaying DDR5 contract pricing after spot prices jumped, and Micron is moving away from China server chips. The recent average price is rising as HBM and DDR5 demand grows with AI servers. Consider buying pullbacks, then add only if the price pushes higher with lots more people buying than usual. Watch supply choices and big economic shocks as this upswing matures.
Primary drivers
- Memory chip prices are climbing again, boosting Micron's sales and margins
- AI servers need HBM and DDR5 chips, lifting orders for Micron in the near term
- Moving away from China data center sales may reduce risk and protect pricing
- Overall market tone is positive, so buying small pullbacks can work for now
