Number of Hedge Fund Holders: 154

On June 8, C.J. Muse, an analyst at Cantor Fitzgerald, raised the firm’s price target on Micron Technology Inc. (NASDAQ:MU) from $700 to $1500 and maintained an Overweight rating on the stock. The upward price target revision reflects 60% upside from current levels. The firm believes AI has created long-term growth for the memory industry, with demand trends that suggest the current upside has plenty of room to continue. As the only major American manufacturer of memory chips, Micron enjoys a lot of positive analyst sentiment. However, the stock is often quick to react to these analyst expectations, forcing analysts to play catch-up. Consequently, the stock usually trades above the Wall Street median price target.

On the same day as the Cantor Fitzgerald update, Wells Fargo also increased its price target on Micron Technology Inc. (NASDAQ:MU) from $550 to $1220 and reaffirmed an Overweight rating on the stock. As the demand remains strong for memory chips, the supply remains limited, supporting strong pricing. The firm is also encouraged by Micron’s customer agreements.

In general, the stock is enjoying positive sentiment and continued upside. During the first week of June, two more analysts raised their price targets on the stock, including Morgan Stanley and Raymond James. Investors can expect further updates as visibility into future earnings increases.

Micron Technology Inc. (NASDAQ:MU) provides memory and storage solutions sold into client, cloud server, enterprise, graphics, networking, smartphone, mobile-device, automotive, industrial, and consumer markets, among others.
