Investing.com - U.S. stock index futures were mixed on Wednesday, with the S&P 500 and Nasdaq edging higher after a bruising two-day selloff in technology and semiconductor shares. Investors were also looking ahead to earnings from memory chipmaker Micron for fresh clues on the outlook for artificial intelligence-related demand.

As tech and software stocks take a hit on Tuesday, memory chipmaker Micron Technology (MU) has dropped by as much as 12% in the session. Shares are still maintaining gains of over 270% in 2026 ahead of the company's latest earnings this Wednesday, June 24. Yahoo Finance Senior Business Reporter Ines Ferré and Mariner Wealth Advisors chief investment strategist Jeff Krumpelman take a closer look at what Wall Street is expecting from Micron's fiscal third quarter earnings results.
The spotlight is on chipmaker Micron Technology as it prepares to report earnings, with investors bracing for further volatility following sharp market swings fueled by large flows tied to SpaceX and a two-day boom-bust in semiconductor stocks. Last June, Micron was a well-known if somewhat obscure company with a market value of $136 billion and a long history, but not necessarily one whose quarterly earnings reports caught investors' fancy. Fast forward a year, and Micron is one of the stars of the technology rally that has sent chipmakers around the world soaring, igniting a fresh trading frenzy even after a dozen or more months of AI excitement.

Investing.com - Micron Technology reports results after the close today, just one day after a brutal 13.2% plunge. Ahead of the open, MU is indicated roughly 4.6% higher in pre-market trading, a partial recovery that does little to settle the core question investors face tonight: is the analyst community's revenue bar of up to $35.4B simply too high?
