Trading expert sets date when Micron stock will hit $3,000

Following its explosive rally in 2026, semiconductor giant Micron Technology (NASDAQ: MU) could still have substantial upside ahead, with a trading expert projecting the stock may surge toward $3,000 over the next few years.  In a analysis published on May 11, technical analyst argued that Micron is following a long-term chart structure similar to the companys historic rally during the late 1980s and 1990s technology boom.  According to the analyst, the stock appears to be entering a temporary “pause phase” before another major breakout.  The analysis noted that Micron has maintained a strong uptrend since rebounding from its April 2025 lows near the monthly 100-period moving average.  said the current setup mirrors the companys historic post-IPO advance, which featured repeated cycles of sharp rallies followed by lengthy consolidations inside a broader ascending channel.  The analyst also highlighted the monthly Relative Strength Index (RSI), which has climbed into heavily overbought territory near 89. The current structure resembles Microns “second pause” during its 1995 rally, when the stock traded sideways for an extended period before resuming its upward move.  Based on the fractal analysis, projected that Micron could remain in consolidation through much of 2026 as momentum indicators cool while the broader bullish trend remains intact.  The forecast then

SUI Price Today: Sui at $1.20 After 27% Weekly Surge From $0.94 – Can It Hold the Breakout?

Sui is trading near $1.20 on May 12, 2026, after one of its biggest weekly moves in months. The CoinMarketCap 1W chart shows it clearly: SUI ground slowly higher from the $0.9471 weekly open, then exploded on May 10 to 11 on the back of two concrete catalysts, touching a high near $1.40 before the current pullback.  From $0.94 to $1.40 is a 48% move. Giving back some of that to $1.20 is not a surprise. The question is whether $1.20 holds or whether this weeks candle becomes a shooting star that gets fully unwound.  What Drove the Move  Two things hit on May 9 to 10 and the chart responded immediately to both.  A Nasdaq-listed company disclosed it had staked a significant portion of SUIs circulating supply. Institutional staking at that scale removes tokens from liquid supply and sends a public signal that a regulated entity is making a long-term bet. Price jumped 13% on that news alone.  The same day, at the Sui Live event in Miami, Nigerian fintech Paga announced a deep integration with the Sui blockchain using the USDsui stablecoin to offer dollar accounts, tokenized real-world assets, and cross-border payments to its user base. Paga processed $11 billion in 2025. That

The Daily Relative Strength Index (RSI) flipped back into bullish territory, while the 4-hour structure carved a clean ascending channel.

BUILDon Daily Chart Confirms Bullish Breakout  The Daily B/USD chart on MEXC shows BUILDon clearing the 0.5 Fibonacci retracement at $0.40 and pushing above the 0.786 level at $0.60. The single-session expansion lifted the token to around $0.63 at the time of writing.  The next upside target sits at the open high near $0.74, which also marks the 1.0 Fibonacci extension. However, in the case of a pullback, the 0.618 Fibonacci level at $0.48 stands as the first key support.  B daily chart / Source: Tradingview  RSI readings returned to bullish territory and have not printed any bearish divergence yet. Meanwhile, volatility remains near its upper extreme, while breakout volume looks relatively modest, a nuance bulls should monitor closely.  4-Hour Channel Hints at a Short-Term Cooldown  On the 4-hour timeframe, BUILDon prints higher highs and higher lows inside an ascending parallel channel.

Jerome Powells Fed Term Ends in 3 Days: What Did He Do for Crypto?

On May 15, Jerome Powells tenure as chair of the Federal Reserve came to an end, bringing to a close one of the most significant periods of monetary policy in the history of cryptocurrency.  Powells effect in the office  Powell took office as Fed chair on February 5, 2018, and on May 23, 2022, he took office for a second four-year term. Powells legacy in the cryptocurrency community was never one of overt support or animosity. His actual influence was felt through liquidity.  The Fed continued to tighten policy and reduce its balance sheet in 2018, contributing to the harsh risk-off environment. After the 2017 bubble, Bitcoin was already weaker going into Powells first year, and it spent most of 2018 plummeting from close to $20,000 to about $3,000.

As cheap money, stimulus, institutional demand, and speculative appetite poured into risk assets, Bitcoin rose from a panic

Lumentum joins NASDAQ-100 index, replacing CoStar Group on May 18

Lumentum Holdings, the company that makes the optical plumbing for AIs most power-hungry data centers, is getting a promotion. The photonics specialist will join the NASDAQ-100 Index on May 18, replacing CoStar Group, which was bumped due to its comparatively lower market capitalization.  Nasdaq made the announcement on May 8, and the market responded predictably. Lumentum shares gained 5.39% in pre-market trading, a modest encore for a stock that has already climbed more than 1,200% since early 2024.  The numbers behind the nod  Look at Lumentums trajectory. The stock rallied 339% in 2025 alone, propelled almost entirely by demand for optical components that power high-speed data transmission in AI and cloud computing infrastructure.  The companys most recent earnings report, from April 25, backed up the hype with actual revenue. Lumentum posted $452 million in Q1 2026 revenue, an 18% increase year-over-year. That growth came from the two sectors every hardware maker wants exposure to right now: artificial intelligence and cloud computing.  CoStar Group, a commercial real estate analytics firm, drew the short straw in the NASDAQ-100‘s periodic rebalancing. The index regularly swaps constituents based on market capitalization, and CoStar’s valuation simply could not keep pace with the AI-fueled surge lifting companies like Lumentum.

Bitcoin Ethereum NewsAugustus received OCC conditional approval to charter the first AI-native US clearing bank.CEO Ferdinand Dabitz aged 25 becomes the youngest federally chartered bank CEO in 100 years.Traditional clearing banks close 115 days yearly and take two days to settle transactions.  A 25-year-old just received OCC approval to build Americas first AI-native clearing bank, Augustus, has received conditional approval from the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency to establish Augustus Bank N.A. as a full-service US national bank. The approval makes Augustus the first clearing bank built from the ground up for AI agents, programmable money, and always-on global settlement.  Co-founder Ferdinand Dabitz, 25, will serve as CEO, becoming the youngest person to lead a federally chartered bank in over 100 years. Since 2010, fewer than ten full-service national bank charters have been granted in the United States.  What Augustus Does Differently  Traditional clearing banks are closed 115 days a year, built for human-initiated transactions, and take two business days to settle. Augustus is built around the opposite assumptions. Its primary banking system was designed from scratch for machine-initiated, agent-driven workflows that run continuously without human intervention.
