$MU$   Micron Technology is stuck in a spiral amid concerns about Chinese competition and the artificial-intelligence trade in general. But shareholder returns could help it rebound, according to analysts. Micron shares were down 4.4% at $873.70 in premarket trading.

$JPMorgan Chase(JPM)$   JPMorgan Chase & Co. (NYSE:JPM) on Tuesday posted downbeat results for the third quarter. The company reported quarterly earnings of $5.75 per share which missed the analyst consensus estimate of $5.90 per share. The company reported quarterly sales of $50.907 billion which missed the analyst consensus estimate of $51.259 billion. During earnings call, JP Morgan provided preliminary 2027 net interest income (NII) outlook, excluding Markets, of $107 billion. The company said this implies about $5 billion in growth versus the annualized fourth-quarter 2026 guidance. JPMorgan shares fell 1.3% to $327.17 in pre-market trading. These analysts made changes to their price targets on JPMorgan

$Micron Technology(MU)$   Micron's bull case extends well beyond AI data centers. High-bandwidth memory (HBM) and advanced DRAM is increasingly needed across different pockets of AI infrastructure -- from autonomous vehicles, aerospace and defense, medical technology, industrial applications, and even humanoid robotics. Moreover, the company has signed 26 strategic customer agreements and more than 75% of its expected 2027 output is already committed. Remaining performance obligations (RPO) have climbed to roughly $150 billion. Lastly, Micron finished fiscal 2026 with $68.3 billion in net cash and generated $62.3 billion of adjusted free cash flow for the year. However, the company only repurchased $650 million o

$Micron Technology(MU)$   Michael Burry and Jim Cramer aren't the first two investors you'd expect to agree on a stock, but their disagreement over Micron Technology (MU -0.66%) is particularly interesting. Burry, the investor made famous by The Big Short, recently closed his outright short position in Micron and replaced it with put options. Cramer, meanwhile, warns that investors betting against the memory chip maker are "digging their own grave." After Micron's latest earnings report, I think Burry's bet faces a particularly difficult obstacle: the company he's betting against doesn't look much like the highly cyclical memory business investors became exhausted by over the last several decades. Micron's bull c

$Micron Technology(MU)$   Showing how unusual the quarter was, Micron's adjusted free cash flow (the cash left after capital spending) reached $33.2 billion in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026 (the period ended Sept. 3, 2026). And it's been climbing fast, from $803 million a year earlier and $18.3 billion in fiscal Q3. For all of fiscal 2026, free cash flow totaled $62.3 billion -- up from $3.7 billion in fiscal 2025. In other words, eight years of buybacks now equal around 24% of the free cash flow Micron generated during one quarter.
