Why Micron Stock Dropped Again Today

Micron Technology shares continue to decline as the semiconductor sector faces a wider sell-off. Market pressure stems from 30-year Treasury yields nearing 5.26% and a general retreat of AI-linked stocks. The MSCI Asia Pacific index, which is heavily weighted toward semiconductors, has dropped about 10% since June 22. While falling oil prices have eased some inflation fears on Wall Street, chip equities remain volatile as investors question if current valuations require a long-term repricing.
