Micron’s AI Memory Boom Fuels Record Earnings, Boosting AICoin AI Prospects
Micron Technology (MU) reported record Q2 earnings of $12.20 per share on $23.86 billion in revenue, overcoming investor doubts about aggressive AI infrastructure spending. The stock saw a modest rise as the memory-chip leader announced a 30% dividend increase to 15 cents per share.
Data-center demand pushed DRAM and NAND prices up 60-65% quarter-over-quarter. Micron is expanding its global facilities to address projected AI memory shortages by 2026. Gross margins reached 81% despite increasing capital expenditures.
The company projects Q3 revenue around $33.5 billion and EPS of $19.15—a bullish indicator for semiconductor-linked crypto assets like AICoin (AI), FET, and RNDR, which rely on high-performance memory solutions.
