Micron Technology (NASDAQ: MU) extended its rally on Thursday after a series of Wall Street firms raised their price targets following the company's record quarterly results and stronger-than-expected outlook, reinforcing confidence in the AI memory leader.
Needham, Raymond James, RBC Capital Markets, Susquehanna, KeyBanc, Goldman Sachs, and Morgan Stanley all increased their price targets, while Wolfe Research initiated coverage with a bullish target. The wave of analyst upgrades followed Micron's record fiscal third-quarter earnings and robust fourth-quarter guidance, highlighting accelerating demand for high-bandwidth memory (HBM) and AI infrastructure.
Analysts pointed to Micron's expanding strategic customer agreements, improving pricing environment, and leadership in AI-focused memory products as key drivers of long-term growth. Several firms also cited growing visibility into earnings as hyperscale cloud providers continue investing heavily in AI data centers.
Shares climbed nearly 16% as investors welcomed both the blockbuster earnings report and the broad-based analyst support, reinforcing Micron's position as one of the semiconductor sector's strongest AI beneficiaries.
