Why Micron Technologies Stock Was Flopping on Friday
The latest pronouncement from President Trump on tariffs for microchips had investors concerned about chipmakers on Friday. One of the victims was a sector mainstay, Micron Technologies (NASDAQ: MU), whose share price closed more than 3% down that day. That was a far steeper fall than the 0.3% dip posted by the S 500 (SNPINDEX: ^GSPC) at that point.
Before market open that day, Trump was quoted by news agency Reuters as saying, "I'll be setting tariffs next week and the week after on steel and on, I would say, chips." He made this remark aboard Air Force One, on the way to Alaska for his summit meeting on the Ukraine war with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
