Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Reached its target in 88 days.
The thesis — published January 29, 2026
Micron is benefiting from faster spending on AI servers, and recent news from Samsung plus Micron's factory expansion in Singapore suggests memory demand is sticking around. The stock ran up quickly, so it's safer to buy during modest pullbacks rather than chasing higher. Main risks are crowded trades and a broad tech selloff.
Primary drivers
- Growing demand for memory from AI server builds
- Singapore NAND expansion improves Micron's supply outlook
- Recent market momentum can keep going for a few months
- Buying pullbacks helps limit risk after a big run-up
