Micron Stock Is Down 39% From Its High. History Suggests a $5,000 Investment Now Will Be Worth This Much by Mid-2028.

Overview

Micron Technology (NASDAQ: MU) has been one of the biggest beneficiaries of the booming demand for artificial intelligence (AI) compute. It's one of just a handful of companies that make memory chips, which have proven to be one of the biggest bottlenecks to expanding large language models and improving their performance. The company has seen its profit soar during the past few quarters as hyperscalers pay premium prices for its chips.

But the market has sold off Micron along with other semiconductor stocks since late June due to a mix of concerns about returns on AI spending and macroeconomic trends. The stock has fallen as much as 39% from its high. As a result, some investors may see an opportunity to invest in the stock. Here's what a $5,000 investment today could be worth in about two years.
