How this is calculated: We use a Growth Decay Model: starting with analyst consensus growth (adjusted above) and gradually slowing it down to a long-term terminal rate (4%) by Year 5. This provides a more realistic valuation than assuming constant hyper-growth. We then apply a 13.8x Exit PE.

In-depth Analysis How we analyze

Valuation Analysis: MU is currently trading at $414.88, which is considered extended relative to its 30-day fair value range of $296.99 to $394.25. From a valuation perspective, the stock is trading at a discount (Forward PE: 10.2) compared to its historical average (13.8). Remarkably, the market is currently pricing in an annual earnings decline of 9.7% over the next few years. This pessimistic expectation contrasts with the company's recent 175.4% earnings growth, suggesting potential undervaluation if the company simply maintains stability.

Technical Outlook: Technically, MU is in a strong uptrend. Immediate support is located at $352.04, while resistance sits at $446.46. Short-term momentum is weak, with the stock down 4.8% recently.

Market Sentiment: MU has a strong technical setup (60/100), with favorable trendlines, momentum, and price action for short-term traders. However, the stock is trading significantly above the average Wall Street target of $358.85. Current signals suggest waiting for a better entry point before initiating new positions.
