Micron stock falls 30% from peak, losing $1 trillion valuation despite strong revenue and AI demand.

Micron Technology's stock dropped nearly 30% from its 52-week high, falling below a $1 trillion market value despite a 379% revenue surge driven by AI data center demand. Analysts remain optimistic, expecting tight memory supply through 2028 and over 75% of 2027 output already committed. However, investor concerns about peak memory pricing and rising capacity investments have pressured the stock. The company's next earnings report and contract pricing will be key to closing the gap to analyst price targets.

Micron Technology's shares are trading at USD 878.84 on Pluang, down 5.63% in the last day and with a market cap just under $1 trillion at $994.34B. Investor activity leans heavily towards buying, with 72% of orders on Pluang favoring purchases. These figures are current as of Oct 18, 2026 00:01 WIB.
