Micron Could Triple After Sept. 30 Earnings as AI Memory Demand Drives 350% Q4 Growth

Summary
Sept. 30 could mark Micron’s next rally point, with the chipmaker expected to post fiscal Q4 revenue of about $50.8 billion after the stock fell more than 20% from its all-time high.
AI data-center demand for DRAM and NAND has outstripped supply, lifting memory prices and fueling explosive growth after Micron’s fiscal Q3 revenue jumped to $41.5 billion from $9.3 billion a year earlier.
6 times projected fiscal 2027 earnings is the key valuation argument: despite analysts forecasting another 85% revenue increase next year, the stock is still priced cheaply enough that a re-rating could support a tripling scenario.
The main constraint is cyclicality in memory chips, because new supply could eventually push prices down and cap how long Micron’s current profit surge lasts.
