On July 10, Direxion Daily MU Bull 2X ETF declined 5.68% in pre-market trading, trading at $718.12/share, with turnover of $21.57 million.
On the news front, underlying stock Micron Technology surged over 4% the prior session after announcing plans to invest more than $250 billion in the U.S. by 2035, coupled with Bank of America reaffirming its Buy rating with a $1,550 target price. However, the market broadly characterized that rally as a technical recovery from oversold territory rather than a trend reversal.
The renewed selling pressure stems from mounting overcapacity concerns as all three global memory giants announced massive expansion plans within a single week. Samsung and SK Hynix committed a combined $880 billion, while Micron added $250 billion, raising fears of medium-to-long-term supply gluts in the storage chip market. Additionally, noted investor Michael Burry previously established a short position on Micron at $1,051.87, which remains open. With Micron having declined over 20% from its post-earnings high, the 2x leverage effect continues to amplify downside moves in this ETF.
