On August 4, Direxion Daily MU Bull 2X Shares rose 8.38% in pre-market trading, trading at $25.942/share, with turnover of $13.34 million. The leveraged ETF amplified gains from its underlying asset Micron Technology, which climbed 3.45% pre-market following multiple positive catalysts.
On the news front, Moodys upgraded Micron Technology's senior unsecured bond rating to BAA1 with a stable outlook, reflecting improved financial standing. Additionally, Powerchip Semiconductor confirmed that its cooperation with Micron is proceeding as planned, further boosting market confidence. Separately, media reported that DRAM and HBM capacity from Samsung, Micron, and SK Hynix for 2027 has been fully allocated, with NAND Flash capacity also essentially pre-sold, validating forecasts of severe supply-demand imbalance ahead.
These developments triggered a rebound after the prior session's sharp selloff, in which Micron fell over 5% on concerns over CXMT's expansion plans and Nvidia Rubin Ultra storage specification downgrades. The options market also showed a roughly $17.19 million bull put spread, signaling strong institutional bullish positioning.
