Micron Technology (MU) stock has climbed about 184% year to date, driven by tight AI memory supply and strong demand for High Bandwidth Memory (HBM). However, the stock has recently pulled back amid concerns that Democratic gains in the November midterm elections and local opposition to new data centers could slow construction. Investors fear tighter rules on power and AI may curb memory demand and weaken Micron's pricing power. More recently, Nvidia (NVDA) CEO Jensen Huang's possible exit has added pressure on AI stocks. Here, we explore who owns MU stock using TipRanks' Ownership tool.
Who Owns MU Stock?
According to TipRanks' Ownership Tool, public companies and individual investors hold 42.79% of MU stock. ETFs own 29.96%, followed by mutual funds at 22.24% and other institutional investors at 4.81%. Insiders account for the remaining 0.20%.
A significant share of MU stock is held by ETFs and public and individual investors, reflecting broad market interest and confidence in the company. However, this makes the stock more sensitive to market sentiment and short-term price swings. Low insider ownership of 0.20% means executives and directors have a small direct stake in the company.
Breaking Down Micron's Ownership Structure
Looking closely at the top shareholders, BlackRock, Inc. (BLK) owns the highest stake in Micron at 9.27%. Vanguard is the second-largest holder, with an 8.46% stake.
On the ETF side, the Vanguard Total Stock Market ETF (VTI) owns approximately 3.17% of MU, while the Vanguard S&P 500 ETF (VOO) owns 2.62%.
Moving to mutual funds, Vanguard Index Funds holds about 6.81% of Micron. Meanwhile, Fidelity Concord Street Trust owns 1.81% of the company.
What Is the Price Target of MU Stock?
Recently, Baird analyst Tristan Gerra, who ranks among Wall Street's top 1% of analysts, maintained an Outperform (i.e., Buy) rating on the memory chipmaker. The top analyst expects a constrained DRAM market to support prices, while customer contracts provide greater certainty over future purchases.
"Micron expects DRAM supply to be 'much tighter' in F2027-F2028 than in F2026, which should warrant a stock rerating ahead, in our view," Gerra wrote.
According to TipRanks, Micron stock carries a Strong Buy consensus rating based on 28 Buys and one Hold assigned over the past three months. The average MU price target of $1,624.00 implies about 100% upside from current levels.
