Siebert CIO Says Micron Stock Is a Buy, Just Not Forever

Micron Technology (MU) rose 4.06% to $1,088, leading the S&P 500 tech sector. Siebert CIO Mark Malek recommends buying MU due to its AI ecosystem role, despite not advocating for long-term holding. Micron reported Q4 revenue of $54.23B, beating guidance, and expects Q1 2027 revenue of $61.5B. MU trades at 6x expected 2027 earnings, with potential upside to $1,500, but faces AI capex slowdown risks.
