Memory chip makers cash in on AI while big tech panics over costs — long Micron
Created
Thesis
Micron's blowout earnings confirm that AI infrastructure players are locking in massive revenue, but the broader tech market is selling off hard. Apple's stock getting slammed for passing memory costs to consumers perfectly illustrates the margin squeeze for buyers, while a near two-decade high in the tech fear gauge shows extreme panic. Connecting these stories, the market is indiscriminately dumping tech even though the component suppliers like Micron are the ones capturing all the profits. This divergence—suppliers winning while consumers suffer—creates a perfect entry point to go long the chip makers that are actually generating the cash.
Strategy approach
Build a rule-based long strategy that enters long MU and WDC on D1 when MU closes up >5% on earnings volume while QQQ closes down >1% on the same session. Use a 21-day max hold and a 7% trailing stop.
