Micron Technology's CEO Sanjay Mehrotra announced a structural shortage in memory chips lasting well beyond 2026, with supply meeting only 50-66% of demand. This shortage supports strong pricing power for DRAM and HBM until new production ramps up around 2028. Micron plans a $200 billion investment in US facilities, aiming to increase domestic production to 40% by 2036 and create 90,000 jobs. The company's recent financial results show booming revenue and profits, driven by high demand from AI and cloud customers, positioning Micron for a prolonged memory supercycle.
