Micron falls about 7% in memory selloff after report Apple may source chips from China
Micron fell about 7% on a Monday in a sector-wide memory selloff.

The article argued the move reflected a higher discount rate on future cash flows, not weaker demand or a weaker contracted 2026 order book; the stock closed at $935.39 that week.
