On June 5, Micron Technology fell 4.82% in pre-market trading, trading at $955.15/share with trading volume of $161 million. The decline extends the previous session's 7.57% drop as the semiconductor sector continues to face selling pressure.
The catalyst behind the broad chip selloff traces back to Broadcom's latest earnings report, which revealed Q2 AI revenue of $10.8 billion (up 145% YoY) and total revenue of $22.187 billion (up 48% YoY), both exceeding expectations. However, Broadcom's Q3 AI revenue guidance of $16 billion fell short of the $17.5 billion expected by Citi analysts and the $16.3 billion street consensus. Additionally, CEO's mere reaffirmation of FY2027 AI revenue exceeding $100 billion — without raising the target — became the direct trigger for market disappointment.
The fallout was severe: Broadcom and Micron together set company-record single-day market cap losses, with a combined $380 billion in value erased. The Philadelphia Semiconductor Index dropped over 4%, with broad weakness across AMD, Arm, Intel, and Marvell Technology.
