Micron Technology is trading 7.35% down now at $186 after reports that Apple may purchase DRAM and NAND chips from China’s CXMT and YMTC.

  • The move raises concerns about Micron’s market share in China.
  • The Chinese suppliers’ ability to scale and meet Apple’s quality requirements remains uncertain.
  • Semiconductor-sector weakness and pre-Nvidia earnings caution are adding pressure, with Micron underperforming the broader market.
