AI And Data Center Demand Will Drive Advanced Memory Expansion

Analysts remain bullish on Micron due to strong DRAM pricing, a shift toward higher-value HBM products, robust AI-driven demand, and improved guidance, but some caution persists regarding NAND and costs; the consensus analyst price target is unchanged at $150.57. Analyst Commentary Bullish analysts highlight Micron’s significantly better-than-expected Q4 guidance, citing strong DRAM pricing, favorable valuation, and robust long-term growth prospects due to secular AI and data center demand.

Multi-cloud Partnerships With AWS, Google, And Azure Will Accelerate Future Prospects

Analysts highlight Oracle's accelerating AI-driven growth, bolstered by major cloud contracts and robust application demand, though some caution over valuation as these positives appear priced in—leaving the consensus price target unchanged at $244.31. Analyst Commentary Bullish analysts point to Oracle's emergence as a structural winner in artificial intelligence, with unique OCI architecture driving a surge in AI-related demand and a pronounced inflection in growth.

Emerging Markets And AI Integration Will Expand Global Reach

Analysts remain constructive on Apple given the positive implications of the Google antitrust ruling for Services revenue, growing confidence in Services' gross profit contribution, and medium-term catalysts from anticipated hardware innovation, though muted iPhone momentum and a cautious reception to AI integration temper near-term enthusiasm; as a result, the consensus price target is unchanged at $235.53. Analyst Commentary The recent Google antitrust ruling is seen as a major positive for Apple, allowing continued substantial payments from Google for default Safari search placement, annual renegotiation rights, and providing leverage for future search engine or AI partnerships; the outcome was less restrictive than feared and supports stronger Services revenue confidence.

AI Infrastructure And Cloud Adoption Will Drive Expansion

Analysts note that while Cisco’s Q4 results and FY26 guidance met expectations, slowing revenue growth—driven by weaker networking orders and restocking trends—balances optimism around AI, software shifts, and the Splunk acquisition, leading to the consensus view that shares are fairly valued and the price target remains unchanged at $75.81. Analyst Commentary Fiscal Q4 results and FY26 guidance were in line to slightly better than expectations, but revenue growth is decelerating with the networking segment under pressure and consensus estimates missed.

Analyst Commentary Bullish analysts cite a significant ramp in AI server demand from hyperscalers, with accelerating momentum in AMD's MI350 GPU series and expectations for the future launch of the MI400 architecture to drive revenue outperformance and market share gains through 2026.
