This week was cut short by Independence Day. That makes it a good time to view Micron Technology, which seems to have the spirit of 76.
The memory-chip maker had a false breakdown below that level on January 27. It quickly rebounded and returned to test $76 three times since mid-May. Interestingly, the current bounce is happening near the rising 200-day simple moving average (SMA) .
Meanwhile, resistance is bearing down from an intermediate-term downtrend. Notice the declining 50-day SMA (in red). Traders may want to watch for a potential breakout as these two moving averages converge from above and below.
Next, MU’s stochastics are oversold on both the daily and weekly charts. This, combined with apparent support at $76, may suggest downside is limited.
There could also be strong fundamentals with the global chip shortage continuing and more demand on the horizon as the 5G buildout continues.
