Dominion announced a merger with NextEra Energy, creating the world’s largest electric utility business. The merger involves an ownership split favoring NextEra shareholders.

Micron Technology ( MU ) shares fell nearly 13% over two sessions after a sharp semiconductor sector pullback tied to reports that AI chip deals were not finalized during the Trump-Xi summit in Beijing. The decline came after Micron's stock had surged from about $300 in late March to a record high of $818.67 on May 11 amid strong investor enthusiasm for AI memory demand.

Despite the selloff, analysts at Citigroup and Melius Research raised their price targets on Micron, citing expectations for continued DRAM and high-bandwidth memory pricing strength through 2027. Citi lifted its target to $840, while Melius raised its target to $1,100, pointing to ongoing AI-driven semiconductor demand and supply constraints.

The stock’s surge followed news of a significant investment by Leopold Aschenbrenner’s Situational Awareness LP, which acquired 10 million shares, valued at nearly $43.9 million, as part of a broader strategy focused on AI infrastructure.

Benzinga Edge Stock Rankings indicate Micron Technology ( MU ) stock has a Momentum in the 99th percentile and Value in the 17th percentile.
