China's Biggest Memory Chip Stock Is Almost as Good as Micron
Chinese memory chip manufacturer CXMT debuted on the Shanghai stock exchange with an $8.6 billion IPO and $487 billion market cap, becoming the world's fourth-largest DRAM producer with 11% global market share. CXMT reported 874% revenue growth and 51.6% net profit margins in H1 2026, approaching Micron's 63% margins. While CXMT trails competitors by 2-3 technology generations, its rapid expansion and lower pricing strategy pose a growing threat to Micron's market share and profitability, particularly as it enters the high-bandwidth memory market for AI applications by end of 2026.
Why ASML Holding Stock Bumped 4% Higher Today
ASML Holding stock rose 4% following a bullish analyst report from Lynx Equity Strategies on memory chipmakers Micron Technology and Sandisk. The report cited strong prospects for these chipmakers as they ramp up production to meet AI-driven demand for computing power. ASML, which supplies essential lithography systems to chipmakers, is positioned to benefit from this industry expansion.
Looking Ahead to the Q3 Earnings Season: What to Expect
The S&P 500 has achieved 12 consecutive quarters of profit expansion.

Jensen Huang Said This Word Exactly 1 Time During Nvidia's Earnings Call, and That Was Enough to Put Artificial Intelligence (AI) Bubble Fears to Rest
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang's single use of the word 'visibility' during earnings signals the company's unprecedented insight into AI infrastructure demand across land, power, and supply chains. With top hyperscalers expected to spend $800 billion on capex in 2026 and $1.3 trillion in 2027, Nvidia's 70% revenue growth guidance and strategic equity stakes in networking and optical companies position it as the architect of AI factories rather than just a chip vendor, suggesting secular demand rather than a bubble.
The Nasdaq, S&P 500, and Dow All Fell Slightly Friday. The Jobs Report Wasn't Really Why.
Major U.S. stock indexes fell modestly on Friday despite a stronger-than-expected August jobs report showing 162,000 payroll additions versus consensus of 53,000. The strong jobs data raised Fed rate hike odds to 60% for the September meeting, causing short-term Treasury yields to spike. Apple weighed on the market due to production issues with foldable devices, while Tesla dropped 6% following disappointing early reviews of its Cybercab service. Micron Technology surged on plans to double AI memory chip production by 2027.
