Oracle Seen Hitting Big Upside as Backlog FuelsBullish Case

Oracle has fallen about 20% in 2026, trading around $158–159 with a consensus target near $242, as Guggenheim’s John DiFucci argues the stock could double on a $638 billion remaining performance obligation backlog and an AI/cloud migration push. Bulls point to a long-term plan of 31% revenue CAGR and 28% EPS CAGR through FY2030 and OCI-led growth, while CFO guidance and negative free cash flow (roughly $23.7 billion in FY2026) raise dilution concerns given a proposed $40 billion of debt and equity financing. The upside hinges on backlog realization and cloud momentum, but a Guggenheim $400 target remains aggressive versus the Street, highlighting Oracle’s company-specific risk vs. peers with stronger cloud trajectories.

Micron's Earnings Could Trigger a Memory-Chip Rally After Sept. 30

Micron Technology is due to report Q4 results on Sept. 30; the memory-chip market remains tight as demand from AI hyperscalers supports higher pricing, with management signaling the supply shortage won't ease until after 2027. Micron is expanding capacity, but new facilities won't be online until 2027–2028, implying continued upside if demand stays strong. With forward earnings around six times, MU looks cheap, and the article argues the stock could rally after earnings, making now a potential entry point, though uncertainty remains about supply normalization and AI demand.

SpaceX Shares Slip 30% From IPO Peak, History Hints at More Downturn

SpaceX stock has fallen about 30% from its mid‑June post‑IPO high as investors weigh heavy AI‑driven spending and looming lock‑ups. The company posted a 2Q revenue jump to $7.8B driven by AI momentum, but reported a staggering -$25B free cash flow in H1 2026, fueling burn‑rate concerns as it ramps up AI capex. An expanding float—from 1.8B to 5.2B by December due to lock‑up expirations—could add selling pressure. Historically, large IPOs have struggled in the first year, with patterns suggesting further downside (some models point to around $89 by June 2027), though analysts still see upside with a median target near $217 in 12 months. The piece advises patient investors to consider only a very small initial position given the uncertainties and dependence on future results and sentiment.

AI Chip Rally Ahead? Nvidia, Micron, and SanDisk Could Jump 30% by 2026’s End

Motley Fool argues Nvidia, Micron Technology, and SanDisk could rally 30% or more by the end of 2026, driven by persistent AI demand and memory-chip shortages. Nvidia remains the leading AI hardware player with a favorable forward valuation, while Micron and SanDisk benefit from tight memory markets that are not expected to ease until 2028 as new capacity comes online and AI data-center spending remains robust.

Oklo Reaches Criticality Milestone, Yet Valuation Questions Persist

Oklo Reaches Criticality Milestone, Yet Valuation Questions Persist

Oklo (OKLO) has achieved first criticality at its Groves low-power reactor in Texas, marking progress for its Aurora modular reactor strategy. A Simply Wall St analysis argues the stock is undervalued, citing a fair value around $80.55 per share versus a recent price near $43, and highlighting long-term electricity contracts and potential AI/data-center demand as revenue drivers. NRC approval of the Principal Design Criteria reduces some regulatory uncertainty, but no commercial plants are operating yet and full NRC licensing remains unresolved, making the valuation highly dependent on aggressive growth assumptions and exposing the stock to meaningful regulatory risk if progress slows.

Cathie Wood Bets on SpaceX’s Dip, But Is Its Sky-High Valuation Justified?

Cathie Wood’s Ark Invest has been buying SpaceX stock as it trades about 50% below its IPO peak, betting on a massive long-term payoff from SpaceX’s reusable rocket tech and the growth of the space economy. The article notes SpaceX’s very high price-to-sales multiple and ongoing losses, but Ark argues for potential hundreds of billions in gross profit by 2030. Caution is advised: Fool’s analysis suggests SpaceX is expensive and not yet profitable, and warns readers that Ark’s funds have had mixed performance, so follow-your-leader decisions should be weighed against broader risk and alternative top stock picks.

SpaceX stock slips: how to navigate a bumpy IPO ride

SpaceX’s stock (SPCX) has fallen about 30% from its June debut and more than 50% from its all-time high. The article outlines three paths for holders: if the stock recovers, take profits gradually and rebalance to avoid overexposure; if it stalls, maintain discipline rather than chasing new highs; if it crashes, avoid panic selling and consider risk controls (stop-loss/trailing stops), hedging with options, and tax implications, all while watching dilution risks from lockups and new share issuances. In short, have a clear, risk-tolerance–based plan rather than reacting emotionally to volatility.

SpaceX's IPO Slump Tests Patience as Musk Signals 10-Year Payoff

SpaceX priced its IPO at $135 per share and now trades around $114, roughly 22% below the IPO price and 49% below the post-IPO high, a pattern common for mega-IPOs as hype cools. Elon Musk and executives have stressed the company’s decade-long vision (Moon and Mars infrastructure) may mean missing quarterly profits, reinforcing a long-term, not near-term, payoff. The IPO explicitly reserved a sizable allocation for retail investors, underscoring Musk’s push for broad access even as markets digest the potential decade-long return.

Apple Tops Nvidia as Market-Cap Leader Amid Cautious AI Spending

Apple overtook Nvidia to become the world’s most valuable company as investors reward Apple’s restrained AI spending and approaching record-high stock. The shift comes as Apple’s capex trends lower while Nvidia pursues AI infrastructure investments; the move sets the stage for Apple’s upcoming earnings report and Tim Cook’s planned transition, with markets watching how Apple Intelligence may scale without widening margins.

Micron's price spark: I’d start a position around $525

Micron's price spark: I’d start a position around $525

Micron Technology trades around $990 as of mid-2026, but the author argues it’s still too rich given memory-market cyclicality and pricing pressures. Using a three-times-peak-earnings rule, a fair entry point would be about $525, based on a projected peak EPS near $178 in 2028; if earnings decline more than expected, downside could be substantial. With memory chips behaving like commodities and capacity expansions shaping prices, the stock wouldn’t be a buy at today’s price, though updates on pricing, foundry capacity, and rivals’ results could shift the outlook.
