Micron Technology receives 57 buy ratings as analysts push targets near $1,500

Micron Technology has become one of Wall Street’s most universally loved trades. The chipmaker has accumulated as many as 57 buy ratings from analysts, with several major firms pushing their 12-month estimates to roughly $1,500.

The stock has nearly quadrupled year-to-date in 2026.

The analyst pile-on

The consensus rating on Micron sits at “Strong Buy” as of mid-June 2026, with buy ratings ranging between 39 and 57 depending on the platform you check.

Several heavyweight firms raised their 12-month price targets to $1,500 in June 2026. That list includes Stifel, TD Cowen, Cantor Fitzgerald, and Deutsche Bank, all arriving at roughly the same number independently.

Then there’s Susquehanna, which set the highest recent target at $1,750, issued on May 29, 2026.

Why AI is rewriting the memory playbook

Micron is one of only three companies on the planet that makes high-bandwidth memory at scale.

The next test comes soon. Micron’s fiscal Q3 2026 earnings report is scheduled for June 24, 2026. Analysts are positioning for what they expect to be a “beat-and-raise” quarter, meaning the company would exceed current estimates and then guide higher for the next period.

What this means for investors

The June 24 earnings report is the immediate catalyst to watch. If Micron beats and raises guidance, it validates the $1,500 price targets and potentially puts Susquehanna’s $1,750 number in play.

Micron competes with Samsung and SK Hynix in the memory market, and all three are racing to capture AI-driven demand.
