Micron earnings: Semiconductor shortage leads to heightened expectations

Earnings preview: Greater demand for memory chips during COVID-19 pandemic pushed Micron to increase its forecast. Micron Technology Inc. faces a heightened bar of its own making for the rest of the year, as widespread chip shortages push up prices for its core memory chips.Micron $$ is scheduled to report fiscal second-quarter earnings results after the close of markets Wednesday.
