Top investor warns of a “cliff” as Micron posts $54.2 billion in quarterly revenue
Micron delivered an exceptionally strong quarter and raised guidance, underscoring AI-driven memory demand, ongoing shortages, and unusual pricing power. The results reinforce near-term strength for the memory complex and AI hardware supply chain. However, commentary highlights rising longer-term uncertainty as new capacity—particularly from China—could shift the market from shortage to oversupply, compressing margins once AI demand normalizes.

Micron reported quarterly revenue of $54.2 billion, up 379% year over year, with adjusted gross margin at 87% and adjusted EPS jumping from $3.03 to $33.42. The company projected first-quarter revenue of about $61.5 billion and adjusted EPS of about $38.15, both above market expectations. Ongoing memory-chip shortages and strong pricing continue to lift the earnings outlook, though investor Victor Dergunov said the setup is becoming more complex.
