  • Micron and FedEx Shine with Blowout Earnings Amid Market Turmoil
    March 20, 2026, 10:15 PM EDT. Micron Technology and FedEx reported strong quarterly earnings that stand out in a week marked by broader market declines fueled by surging oil prices and economic uncertainty linked to the Iran conflict. Micron's fiscal Q2 revenue soared nearly threefold to $23.86 billion, driven by high demand for AI-related memory products, topping earnings per share (EPS) estimates by over 38%. The company projects robust Q3 sales growth at $33.5 billion and anticipates exceeding $100 billion in annual sales next year. FedEx posted a fiscal Q3 EPS of $5.25, beating estimates by nearly 27%, supported by disciplined operations and digital efficiencies. It raised full-year EPS guidance to $19.30-$20.10, surpassing Wall Street forecasts. Both stocks could appeal to investors seeking buy-the-dip opportunities amid volatile trading.
