Agentic AI fuels Micron memory demand
The shift to agentic AI is driving huge demand for memory, with Micron's gross margins surging from negative to 81% in a few quarters. Supply remains extremely tight, and despite capacity additions, the shortage will persist beyond 2026. The cycle length and room to grow will exceed expectations, supporting continued price and margin expansion.
