MU is in a confirmed uptrend, trading above both its 50-day ($960.72) and 200-day ($552.60) moving averages. An RSI of 56.4 sits in the neutral zone — momentum is neither stretched nor exhausted. The 1-year return of +675.5% compares to +20.4% for SPY (beat the market by 655.2%). The current 22.6% drawdown from the 52-week high reflects elevated risk for momentum-based strategies.
