Micron stock rebounds 5% after huge selloff even as AI demand risks persist
Micron Technology shares gained 5.8% on Friday after falling 17% in the previous session. At Thursday’s closing price, they traded at 3.7 times estimated fiscal 2027 earnings. The article says demand for memory chips used in AI servers could weaken earlier than expected if data-centre investment slows.

What happened
Micron shares rose about 5.8% to 8.06% on Friday after falling about 17% to 18% the day before. AMD and Nvidia also gained early Friday. The rebound followed a broad technology selloff, while concerns about data center construction and future demand for memory chips remain.
Global impact / market context
The rebound may ease some losses for Micron investors, but one day’s rise does not settle whether demand for memory chips used in AI servers will hold up. Concerns that local opposition could slow U.S. data center construction remain relevant to that demand.
What to watch
- Check whether Micron’s shares hold their Friday rebound; this shows whether the recovery continued beyond the initial rise.
- Check for signs that U.S. data center construction is slowing; the source says local opposition raised this concern.
- Check whether investment in data centers slows and could weaken demand for memory chips used in AI servers earlier than expected.
