Micron's shares have surged over 50%, exceeding a $1,000 price target due to strong demand for high-bandwidth memory (HBM) used in AI infrastructure. The company is expected to generate about $35 billion in revenue and $20 earnings per share, supported by 17 upward earnings revisions and fully booked HBM capacity. Despite the rally, the stock trades at a modest 9.6 times the 2027 earnings consensus, indicating potential for further gains. Institutional investors like BlackRock and Goldman Sachs hold significant stakes, reflecting strong confidence in Micron's growth prospects.
