Micron Flags AI as ~50% of Future Revenue, But Burry Shorts and Stock Breaks $820 Support
MU has more than doubled off its 52-week low of $103.38.
Summary
Micron disclosed that long-term AI supply deals could represent about half of future revenue, signaling a structural shift toward contract-backed sales that may improve visibility. However, the stock broke below $820 support, with next key support near $660, amid broader selling pressure. Adding to the negative sentiment, Michael Burry boosted his short position in Micron, increasing downside bets on the chipmaker. This follows a period of extreme bullishness, with the stock having surged past $1 trillion market cap in May on AI demand and a $200B investment plan. The breakdown and Burry's short raise questions about whether the AI-driven rally has peaked.
