On July 15, 3M rose 3.13% in regular trading, trading at $162.0/share, with turnover of $38.63 million.

On the news front, 3M and Microsoft announced a strategic partnership focused on AI data center infrastructure and enterprise transformation projects. Under the collaboration, Microsoft's Azure Cloud and AI Infrastructure will deploy 3M's expanded beam optical technology, while 3M will leverage Microsoft's AI and digital platforms for enterprise transformation initiatives. Financial terms were not disclosed.

The partnership builds on 3M's May announcement of joining an industry alliance that signed a multi-source agreement to develop open interoperability specifications for expanded beam fiber connectivity in AI data centers. This deeper engagement with Microsoft further solidifies 3M's strategic positioning in AI infrastructure materials. Additionally, with 3M's Q2 earnings report scheduled for July 21, market sentiment received a dual boost. Notably, 3M management previously highlighted strong performance in its semiconductor and data center business segments during Q1 results.
