1 Semiconductor Stock to Buy Hand Over Fist After Micron Technology's Stellar Report
Micron Technology (NASDAQ: MU) wowed investors last week with an outstanding set of results for the second quarter of its fiscal 2024, reporting a massive jump in its revenue and a surprise profit, and this sent shares of the memory specialist soaring.
The chipmaker benefited from a jump in demand for memory chipsr. As a result, its revenue increased a massive 58% year over year to $5.8 billion. Micron is anticipating stronger year-over-year growth of 76% in its top line in the current quarter, driven by increased appetite for memory chips from artificial intelligence (AI) servers, smartphones, and personal computers (PCs).
The memory industry has witnessed a significant turnaround of late as demand for consumer electronics is back on track, while AI has created the need for advanced memory chips known as high-bandwidth memory (HBM). Micron management remarked on the latest earnings-conference call that its HBM capacity for 2024 is sold out, while the "overwhelming majority of our 2025 supply has already been allocated."
