Micron Technology (NASDAQ:MU) briefly moved ahead of Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:META) by market value after its AI-driven memory chip forecast lifted the stock more than 18%.

The move followed Micron’s fourth-quarter revenue and profit outlook, which helped the stock rebound after a recent pullback.

Micron said customers had committed $22 billion to secure memory chip supplies, reflecting continued demand for AI-related memory products.

The rally lifted Micron’s market value to about $1.4 trillion, placing it near Meta Platforms as investors priced in stronger demand for high-bandwidth memory.

Following the announcement, Micron Technology's share price was up at $1,240.75.

Micron has become a major supplier of memory used in AI infrastructure, including high-bandwidth memory for advanced processors.

The company’s latest forecast added to a 2026 rally in chip stocks tied to AI data center spending and memory supply constraints.
