Micron Technology's stock has surged over 30% in August 2026 due to strong demand for AI infrastructure, prompting BMO Capital Markets analyst Harsh Kumar to maintain a 'Buy' rating and a $1,300 price target. The rally is driven by a memory market supercycle and growth across all product lines. Micron's $10 billion planned investment in U.S.-based research labs aims to sustain competitiveness. With a year-to-date gain of over 206% and a market cap of $1.1 trillion, analysts expect the stock to continue rising, with average 12-month price targets around $1,568 and some as high as $2,200.
