Micron and Sandisk Stock Have Plummeted. Here's Why Now Is the Perfect Time to Buy

Key Points Memory chips continue to be a damper on the AI build-out. Wall Street expects huge growth for both companies over the next year. 10 stocks we like better than Micron Technology › Micron Technology(NASDAQ: MU) and Sandisk (NASDAQ: SNDK) have been up and down stocks. While they were incredible investments at the start of 2026, these two stocks are now trading down 25% to 42%, respectively, from their 2026 highs. However, I think they're both ready for a rebound and could easily end the year strongly. The reality is that memory chips are in short supply, and prices continue to rise. Th

Wall Street Analysts Predict 70% Upside for This AI Memory Stock in 2027

Situational Awareness Taiyo Yuden stake unwind, Leopold Aschenbrenner. Photo by BeInCrypto Micron (MU) stock is holding near $911 after a 189% price rise in 2026.

The world is short of the memory that powers AI, and Micron seems very well positioned to fix that problem. Still, the stock has already priced in a lot.

Micron Set A Margin Record On Prices It Has Agreed To Cap

Micron Technology (MU) achieved its best-ever quarter with an 84.9% gross margin, primarily driven by surging memory prices. However, the company has entered strategic take-or-pay agreements with customers that cap future prices for about 40% of its revenue, raising questions about the sustainability of these record-high margins. The stock's current valuation at 10.9 times sales suggests an expectation of durable profitability, but the real test for Micron's future growth will be an increase in bit shipments rather than continued price hikes.

Why Is Micron Technology Stock Gaining Wednesday?

Micron Technology (NASDAQ: MU) stock rose over 3% in premarket trading due to tight memory supply and strong AI-driven demand. Executives noted that AI is rapidly reshaping the memory cycle, with demand outpacing industry supply, especially in data centers where Micron struggles to meet even half of customer demand. The company expects future revenue and profit growth driven by product mix, shipments, and pricing, with analysts maintaining positive outlooks and high price targets.

DRAM and NAND supply could remain tight through 2027, with meaningful new capacity potentially not hitting the market until 2028. That gives Micron something every commodity-like semiconductor

Can Micron's Take-or-Pay Deals Improve Revenue Growth Visibility?

Micron Technology is implementing take-or-pay agreements, known as Strategic Customer Agreements (SCAs), to stabilize its revenue and improve predictability in the cyclical DRAM and NAND markets.

How the page works

How to read the score

The score shows direction

It describes the weighted balance of qualifying headlines. A score of 50 can mean balanced news or that there is not enough evidence; the status label explains which.

Confidence is separate

Confidence measures depth, source breadth, direct relevance, freshness and agreement. It does not rise merely because the tone is extreme.

Price is confirmation

Weekly price response, trend and fair-value position test whether the market is accepting or rejecting the news. They never rewrite the news score.

What the page does

It measures news already published. It is not a forecast, recommendation or price target.
