Stanley Druckenmiller Exits Micron Stake After 300% Gain
Stanley Druckenmiller’s investment firm, Duquesne Family Office, initiated a position in Micron Technology (NASDAQ: MU) during the first quarter of 2026, acquiring 23,400 shares. By the end of the second quarter, Druckenmiller had completely exited this position as Micron’s stock saw a dramatic rise of over 300% in the first half of 2026.
During this period, Micron entered the trillion-dollar market cap club, alongside competitors SK Hynix and Samsung, as demand for high bandwidth memory (HBM) surged amid the AI boom. Druckenmiller’s exit raises questions about whether he undersold potential gains, but his decision to take profits may reflect prudent risk management in a volatile memory market.
