Micron Jumps 5% to $1,096 as AI Memory Crunch Lifts Targets
Micron Technology surged 5% to $1,096.16 on September 22, 2026, as tightening AI memory supply and rising analyst targets fueled investor positioning ahead of September 30 earnings. The stock's $1.24 trillion market cap, consensus Buy rating, and average target of $1,295.63 highlight the repricing underway. For finance professionals, the move reflects a structural memory shortage rather than a short-term sentiment spike.
