July semiconductor sales drop 9.8% m/m, but supply constraints support Micron's growth outlook

July data from semiconductor industry groups show a 9.8% month-over-month decline in global semiconductor sales, driven mainly by a 16.3% drop in memory revenue. However, rising prices for DRAM and NAND memory alongside lower shipments suggest supply issues rather than weakening demand. This supports a positive growth and earnings outlook for Micron Technology, which plans to double high-bandwidth memory capacity by 2026, potentially increasing market share and valuation. Despite recent stock declines amid shipment concerns, underlying demand for advanced memory remains strong, especially with Nvidia's increased accelerator output maintaining memory demand.
