Micron stock dips after report says Nvidia HBM4 orders may bypass it for SK Hynix, Samsung

Micron stock dips after report says Nvidia HBM4 orders may bypass it for SK Hynix, Samsung

Shares of Micron Technology fell 0.5% ahead of Friday’s open after Semianalysis downgraded its forecast, now expecting Micron to miss out entirely on supplying HBM4 memory for Nvidia’s next products. https://www.investing.com/news/stock-market-news/micron-stock-dips-as-analyst-slashes-nvidia-hbm4-supply-forecast-to-zero-4491031 This decision matters. High-bandwidth memory, or HBM, is the stacked DRAM sitting alongside AI chips, feeding them data at breakneck speed. Getting selected by Nvidia can secure a supplier years of robust orders and pricing leverage. Miss that cut, and suppliers are left hustling for the next opportunity.

  • Toyota Shares Still Pricey by DCF, Despite Five-Year Rally
    July 1, 2026, 10:25 PM EDT. Toyota Motor shares are up 61.2% in five years. But a DCF model puts the stock about 36.5% overvalued, with the company facing free cash flow pressure and lower global sales. Other valuation lines tell a different story, as Toyota trades at 8.4x P/E-below the auto sector average of 14.9x-suggesting it could be cheap. Investors are weighing upside from electric air taxis with Joby Aviation against trouble spots like EV recalls and project risks. The split in value signals leaves Toyota's price hanging without a clear read on whether it's cheap or rich right now.
