honestly even though MU has doubled, long term it's still got a
long way to go. During my call yesterday with the pro client,
he said his analyst says earnings next year could be 100 share.
long term this supply/demand in the chips will go on for a
while
LOL that is not even a stretch, the consensus 2027E is ~$99,
putting MU on a PE of what, 6.5x.
OTOH, Hynix over in Korea, the leader in HBM, is at ~4x 2027E.
They are considering doing a US ADR. If so, it will of
course be marketed against MU, and some money will move over to
Hynix.
It is a boom-bust industry, and one needs to keep an eye on
capex. Most of the capex in the industry this year is on
technology upgrades, resulting in modest output growth.
Recent step-ups in capex will boost wafer output, likely to
hit late in 2027 or in 1H2028. Usually the new capacity hits
as demand is cooling down, giving you the torpedo.

I'm sure hoping so. Starting to see retirement a little more clearly now.
