Micron Technology, Inc. (MU) shares gain 758.3% in a year, up 9,645% since Big Money’s first buy in 1994.

MU makes memory and storage solutions for AI networks, mobile, and embedded systems used by corporate and individual customers globally. The company’s second-quarter fiscal 2026 report showed $23.9 billion in revenue (a 196% year-over-year gain), non-GAAP per-share earnings of $12.20 (up 682%), and fiscal third-quarter EPS guidance of $19.15.

No wonder MU shares are up 249% so far this year – and they could rise more. MoneyFlows data shows how Big Money investors are again betting heavily on the stock.
