Analysts made their biggest move in memory chips this week. The consensus target price on MU jumped to $1,009 from $965. That is a 4.5% lift. Micron carries a $1.28 trillion market cap and short interest of just 3.3% of free float. Bulls are firmly in control.
Financials also got a broad wave of upgrades. Targets rose on BAC, GS, MS, STT, and CFG — all in a single session. Goldman's consensus target now sits at $960. The breadth of the financial sector move suggests renewed confidence in bank earnings power.
BNY attracted fresh analyst coverage. Thirteen firms initiated with a consensus target of $145. That is a strong opening stance for a $99 billion custody banking giant.
Not all news was positive. DPZ's target slipped to $403 from $404. BDX saw its target cut to $178 from $181. Both remain under mild pressure.
HOOD bucked the downbeat trend. Its target edged up to $101. Analysts see the retail brokerage gaining ground in a busy market environment.
QCOM also got a small target boost, rising to $187 as chipmakers broadly benefit from AI-driven demand tailwinds.
