Micron (
MU
+6.46%
) is benefiting from one of AI's most important bottlenecks: memory. With high-bandwidth memory supply all but sold out through 2027, and earnings estimates rising, the stock could keep gaining if investors continue to revalue it as core AI infrastructure instead of a cyclical memory company.

At first glance, I expected the S&P 500 (
^GSPC
+0.26%
) and Nasdaq Composite (
^IXIC
+0.42%
) indexes to soar today. Nvidia (
NVDA
+6.26%
) is up by 5.1% at 12:44 p.m. ET, and that kind of move is usually enough to drive substantial boosts to the cap-weighted indexes. After all, Nvidia accounts for 7.8% of the S&P 500's total score and 11.2% of the Nasdaq Composite's.

Memory chips are a major market opportunity right now. There is huge demand and little supply, so the price of memory chips is soaring. That allows memory chip producers like Sandisk (
SNDK

) and Micron Technology (
MU
+6.00%
) to cash in on the rise, and both of them have done just that -- and then some.
But which is the better stock to buy today? Let's take a look.

Nvidia offered investors a nearly certain path to gains over the past few years. As the leader in the artificial intelligence (AI) chip market, the company generated explosive revenue growth, and its innovation suggested that this momentum could keep on going over time.
