Extended read

Micron's results provide a critical counter-narrative to the broader tech sell-off. By locking in 20% of DRAM volume through 2030 with price floors, the company is attempting to break the historical boom-bust cycle of the semiconductor industry. The 345% sales growth and record operating income highlight the intensity of AI data center demand, which is currently consuming high-bandwidth memory (HBM) at a rate that crowds out consumer and automotive segments.
