Micron just landed a huge partnership with AI company Anthropic right before its earnings report. Wall Street analysts are already expecting stellar numbers.

## Idea

Micron has quadrupled this year, but the new Anthropic deal proves the demand for memory chips is real. With the earnings report coming up Wednesday, traders are betting the company will beat expectations. However, the broader tech sector is currently in a massive sell-off, so wait for a short-term bounce before getting in.
