MU trade ideas
MU Short-term short for Week of 7.26MU looking weak here on the chart. We had bearish volume on Friday which we should continue into this week.
I wouldnt leave this short active longer than a day or two; nor would I enter the trade unless we get an hourly close below
49.75. As it goes lower in price, I would expect us to find more buyers.
Targets:
Target 1: 49.00
Target 2: 48.25
Target 3: 47.00
Target 4(extreme): 46.25.
Best of Luck,

Bullish Charts - Golden Cross Soon, Possible BuyoutMicron Technology, Inc. engages in the provision of innovative memory and storage solutions. It operates through the following segments: Compute and Networking Business Unit (CNBU); Mobile Business Unit (MBU); Storage Business Unit (SBU); and Embedded Business Unit (EBU). The Compute and Networking Business Unit segment includes memory products sold into cloud server, enterprise, client, graphics, and networking markets. The Mobile Business Unit segment offers memory products sold into smartphone, and other mobile-device markets. The Storage Business Unit segment comprises of SSDs and component-level solutions sold into enterprise and cloud, client, and consumer solid-state drive (SSD) markets, other discrete storage products sold in component and wafer forms to the removable storage markets, and sales of 3D XPoint memory. The Embedded Business Unit segment consists of memory and storage products sold into automotive, industrial, and consumer markets. The company was founded by Ward D. Parkinson, Joseph L. Parkinson, Dennis Wilson, and Doug Pitman in October 1978 and is headquartered in Boise, ID.
At current levels, I feel Micron is undervalued and unappreciated.
There are not many devices in the technology industry that do not need memory and storage. Micron can supply the memory and storage from electric vehicles to computers and spaceships to airplanes. Almost everything today needs memory including appliances and smart homes.
Micron just posted earnings and they blew past Wall Street estimates and then the company raised guidance and forecast higher earnings and revenue moving forward.
Currently, on the Daily Chart, the following indicators are Bullish...

In my opinion, I think Micron is the best play in town and I also think it's a buyout target. If I were the CEO of Microsoft or another large tech giant like Apple, I wouldn't even think twice about trying to buyout Micron because down the road, everything will need memory and storage to operate.
If Micron is bought, I think the buyout would be upwards of $120 per share.
This was from 2016 and in my opinion, Micron looks better now than ever before... If it looked good in 2016, it looks amazing now!

Would probably go out to August here (54 days) ... . Looked at through the lens of what the short straddle is paying as a function of share price, it looks like I should be selling premium in XOP (20.2%), followed by EWZ (17.7%) and/or GDXJ (17.7%).

EWZ offers both better better premium as a function of stock price than IYR at the moment, as well as slightly higher yield (3.66% for the former; 3.50% for the latter). Since I've already laddered out IYR, I may dip at the EWZ well with the 16 delta short put paying .70 in August at the 22 strike, .84 in September at the 21 ... .
