(But Micron stock only costs $706 today, so that's a potential 19% gain.)Mizuho's move from $740 to $800, albeit a smaller adjustment, is the more interesting note because it provides more insight into the analyst's thinking. As StreetInsider.com reports, Mizuho is forecasting continued strong pricing in both NAND and DRAM memory, not just through the end of this year, but also into 2027.Insatiable demand for both high-bandwidth memory (stacked DRAM chips) and eSSD (enterprise-scale solid-state drives) will drive price increases. Mizuho also sees potential for &#34;HBF&#34; (high bandwidth flash) memory &#34;to further tighten NAND supply in 2027E.&#34;Best of all (from Micron's perspective), there's a worker strike looming at Samsung, which could curtail supply and drive memory prices through the roof. <h2>What it means for Micron</h2>So suffice it to say there's a lot of good news in this report for Micron today. Meanwhile, Mizuho notes the company is getting ready to report earnings barely a month from now, on June 24.Analysts forecast 261% revenue growth to $33.6 billion, and for earnings to grow 10-fold to $19.02 per share. Admittedly, the worry lingers that this cyclical semiconductor stock must eventually suffer a downturn.That probably won't happen this year, however -- and maybe not next year, either.<h2>Should you buy stock in Micron Technology right now?</h2> Before you buy stock in Micron Technology, consider this: The Motley Fool Stock Advisor analyst team just identified what they believe are the 10 best stocks for investors to buy now… and Micron Technology wasn’t one of them.
