Micron Stock Inches Closer to $1,000 Per Share, but Time Is Running Out for a Stock Split in 2026

Micron could split its stock, but investors shouldn't expect a split in 2026.

Micron Stock Inches Closer to $1,000 Per Share, but Time Is Running Out for a Stock Split in 2026

Published August 17, 2026 · Category: Finance

Overview

For those who have owned Micron Technology (NASDAQ: MU) stock since the start of the year, the last month alone has offered a wild ride. On July 29, shares sank to a closing price of $739. That's seemingly based on several factors converging, ranging from potential profit-taking to fears of cheaper artificial intelligence (AI) models emerging from China to increased competition to fears of memory makers losing margin power and returning to boom-or-bust cycles as supply catches up to demand created by AI.

Since July 29, however, the stock price has rebounded, closing at $971.66 on Aug. 14. That may have some investors wondering whether it will cross the $1,000 threshold and whether a Micron stock split is possible by the end of 2026.
