Micron confirms AI memory fundamentals and UBS target of $1,625
In late May 2026, Micron Technology briefly broke through a $1 trillion market value. UBS analyst Timothy Arcuri raised the target price from $535 to $1,625, one of the largest target-price increases for the semiconductor industry in recent years. UBS confirmed that the basis is that AI-driven memory shortages will last at least until 2028, and that Micron's pricing power is structurally strengthening.
Micron confirmed that its HBM capacity is essentially sold out through 2026, and the company is also developing the next-generation HBM4 product. Goldman Sachs estimates that the combined contribution to S&P 500 index earnings growth this year from NVIDIA and Micron is about one-third of the total.
Micron confirms capital expenditure plan and competitive dynamics
Micron confirmed that its fiscal year 2026 capital expenditure plan increases by about $5 billion, bringing total spending to more than $25 billion.
