MU trade ideas
Micron Short - Rising wedge pullbackMicron (MU) has had a monster run, now it looks time that the longs will take profits.
MU is in a rising wedge and has shown a high degree of excess exuberance, i would be looking at either taking your long profits now and wait for a pullback to the 9 ema, or i would look for a short trade with the same target in mind.
Personally i would favor the latter as the broader market also looks set for a sell off (i talk about hedging SPY also) and given micron has quite a high relative beta, this should drag MU down also.
Micron upgrade, call activity, and ascending triangle breakMicron (MU) got an upgrade to "strong buy" over the weekend from Zack's, the best-performing analytics firm. It also got some huge options volume today, targeting $49 and $55 per share. That's probably on the strength of both the Zack's upgrade and the stock's ascending triangle break. The triangle break implies an upside of about $6 per share from the current level.
Micron (MU) - The Trend is your FriendMU retested the ~ $36 break-out twice and has since headed higher. A solid close above $46 could indicate continued strength and a push towards $58-$60 would be the next target.
Micron has remained within it's trend and break-out. Mgmt. has indicated they are in the early innings of the data demand which they have suggested could last until 2025. Recent mergers in the sector signal MU would be worth over $100. Strong balance sheet, share repurchases, and structural demand suggest this is a stock to watch going forward.
