Micron stock falls below $800 amid concerns over memory prices despite strong profits and contracts.

Micron Technology's stock dropped below $800 for the first time since July, falling 7% in a single session despite record profits and long-term contracts through 2030. The decline reflects investor worries that high memory prices, which have boosted Micron's earnings, may hurt demand from customers like phone and PC makers. The stock has lost about 19% over five sessions and trades at five times forward earnings, with analysts seeing potential upside if demand holds. The next key test will be Micron's upcoming earnings report, which could confirm if pricing and demand remain strong or if margins will decline.

Micron Technology (MU) trades at USD 766.57 on Pluang, down 3.60% as of Nov 05, 2026 19:14 WIB, continuing a recent decline below $800. Despite this, Pluang investors show strong interest with 79% buy orders and a typical hold time of 51 days. Seagate Technology (STX) also fell 4.46% to USD 532.20, with a higher sell order ratio of 70% on Pluang, reflecting cautious sentiment in the tech sector.
