The thesis — published December 2, 2025
Micron makes fast memory chips that AI servers need. The company raised its sales forecast to about $12.5 billion because customers are buying more HBM and other memory. Industry groups now expect the chip market to grow a lot by 2026, and analysts raised their fair-value views. Together these signs suggest buying on dips could capture further gains over the next few months.

- Stronger HBM and DRAM orders from AI server customers boosting sales.
- Company upped sales forecast to about $12.5 billion, showing strength.
