  • Micron stock slips 4% amid chip rally cooldown, investors eye upcoming conference
    February 4, 2026, 4:37 PM EST. Micron Technology (MU.O) shares fell about 4% to $419.44 early Wednesday, reversing recent gains amid shifting sentiment in the memory-chip market. The company's stock, a favorite in the AI-driven data-center demand surge, reacted to new forecasts predicting a dramatic 90%-95% rise in DRAM prices for Q1, underscoring strong pricing power. However, broader tech sector jitters, including a nearly 10% drop in Advanced Micro Devices shares and pressure on software and cloud stocks, weighed on Micron. Market watchers await Big Tech earnings reports and Micron's investor conference on Feb. 11 for direction on demand trends and pricing. Analysts highlight a 'supercycle' in memory chips fueled by supply shortages and robust AI-led demand, though caution remains over possible demand swings impacting pricing and margins.
