Micron Stock Split Looks Unlikely by End-2026 as Shares Swing From $739 to $971.66

Summary
$971.66 was Micron's Aug. 14 close after rebounding from $739 on July 29, but the report says a stock split is still unlikely to be completed by December 2026.
Mid-August timing leaves little room even though recent examples show splits can be executed in under two months, with Booking completing a 25-for-1 split less than two months after announcing it.
Recent volatility is a bigger deterrent: split announcements often draw short-term traders, and Bank of America data cited in the report shows split stocks averaged 25.4% returns in the following 12 months.
For long-term investors, the report says Micron's more important test is whether multi-year contracts can ease fears that memory margins will slide back into a boom-and-bust cycle as supply catches up with AI demand.
