Daqo New Energy Fair Value Cut 18% as JPMorgan and Goldman Split on Rating
Daqo New Energy's fair value estimate has been trimmed from about US$23.95 to about US$19.65, an adjustment of roughly 18%, as analysts remain sharply divided on the stock. JPMorgan maintains an Overweight rating with a revised US$22 price target, still above the updated fair value estimate, while Goldman Sachs shifted to a Sell rating with a reduced US$10 target, citing a Q2 non GAAP net loss driven by lower recognized average selling prices and higher SG&A expenses. The company issued new production guidance for the third quarter of 2026 targeting polysilicon output of about 40,000 MT to 45,000 MT, and for the full year 2026 guided to polysilicon production of about 160,000 MT to 180,000 MT, including the impact of annual facility maintenance. Daqo New Energy was also removed from the FTSE All World Index in US$ terms, and Reuters reported that the U.S. government is preparing a price floor and tariffs on polysilicon to support domestic factories, with Daqo New Energy cited among the companies expected to be affected. In the updated model, revenue growth was trimmed from about 32.87% to about 30.82%, net profit margin moved from about 1.77% to about 6.50%, the future P/E was cut from about 97.65x to about 23.46x, and the discount rate edged higher from about 12.27% to about 12.37%.

Micron Earnings, Soft Jobs Data and Bitcoin Rally Lift Bull Market
Micron Technology delivered another outstanding earnings report Wednesday evening, with revenue, earnings and margins all surging and management offering another strong outlook as demand continues to overwhelm available supply. According to UBS estimates, memory represented roughly 14% of total AI capital spending in 2025, a share expected to jump to 37% in 2026 and 64% by 2027. The U.S. economy added just 29,000 jobs in September, while July was revised down to a 10,000-job loss and August was revised lower to 133,000, with July and August payroll growth reduced by another 60,000 jobs combined; St. Louis Fed estimates put the breakeven rate needed to keep unemployment stable somewhere around 15,000 to 87,000 jobs per month. Bitcoin has gained roughly 35% over the past three months compared with about 10% for the Nasdaq 100, reversing its earlier summer underperformance. The Nasdaq is printing fresh all-time highs while the S&P 500 knocks on the door of record highs, as softer labor data pulls Treasury yields lower and eases pressure on the Fed to raise rates again.

Micron Posts Record Earnings as Taiwan Union Moves Toward Strike Vote
Micron Technology reported record quarterly results after the close on Wednesday, but a labor dispute at its Taiwan operations is now threatening production at one of its key manufacturing bases. Fourth-quarter revenue came in at $54.23 billion, ahead of the $50.45 billion consensus and nearly five times the $11.32 billion reported a year earlier, while adjusted earnings of $33.42 a share beat estimates of $31.16.

Chairman and CEO Sanjay Mehrotra credited AI demand and the company's Strategic Customer Agreements for the record fiscal 2026 results. According to reports, Micron said its roughly 15,000 Taiwan employees would receive the company's largest-ever compensation package for fiscal 2026, worth the equivalent of 35 to 68 months of base salary for production staff, but the Taoyuan union is pushing for a permanent mechanism allocating 15% of operating profit to employee bonuses rather than another one-off payout. Union chairman Lin Che-jui has said the aim is a long-term, transparent system, negotiations broke down on Sept. 21, and the union has announced plans for a strike vote, while Micron has said it remains willing to continue talks and separate mediation with the Taichung union is scheduled for Oct. 22. Taiwan is one of Micron's most important manufacturing bases for DRAM and the high-bandwidth memory used in AI servers, making any disruption a risk for investors at a time when supply is already tight, and a poll on workplace platform Blind found 75% of respondents support the Micron strikers receiving the additional 15%.
