The brief
Micron reported record earnings, noting a 346% sales jump and a 15-fold increase in net profit, sending its shares up over 16% in pre‑market trading. The surge helped the Nasdaq roar back and lifted Dow and S&P 500 futures, while AI‑related stocks rebounded across Wall Street.
Coverage from Barron's, Investor's Business Daily, Bloomberg, CNBC, CNN and Yahoo Finance highlighted the AI reassurance the earnings provided, linking the market lift to a key inflation gauge and a personal consumption expenditures (PCE) index at a three‑year high.
