Micron Stock Slips as EUV Upgrades, AI Spending Bets, and ETF Leverage Roil Memory Shares
Micron Technology’s stock fell 6.6% to about $844.65, extending a roughly 20% drop over the past month, as three pressure points weigh on the memory-chip maker: ASML’s EUV lithography upgrades promise more efficient memory production (benefiting rivals and lifting supply expectations), concerns that Big Tech may scale back AI-related memory spending, and the amplifying drag from leveraged ETFs that worsen downside moves; after a ~700% rally over the past year, analysts see potential memory-price dynamics improving into 2027 with an average price target near $1,579, though near-term headwinds keep Micron under pressure.
