From Bloomberg today
"Soaring profits have helped keep memory chipmakers’ stock market valuations in check despite the rally. Indeed, Micron and Sandisk look downright cheap at around 10 times earnings over next 12 months, compared with the Philadelphia semiconductor index, which trades at almost 27 times.
