Morgan Stanley is doubling down on the memory chip trade, lifting its price target on Micron (NASDAQ:MU) to $1,050 from $520 and raising SanDisk (NASDAQ:SNDK) to $1,750 from $1,100, with both names kept at Overweight ratings. The analysts pointed to tightening memory supply, strong momentum carried over from last year, and a view that memory stocks have the runway to continue outpacing the broader market as the core pillars behind the upgraded targets.

Palo Alto Networks (NASDAQ:PANW) is trading lower in premarket action despite delivering a Q3 report that cleared expectations across the board. Revenue came in at $3.0 billion against the $2.94 billion estimate for a 31% year-over-year gain, while adjusted EPS of $0.85 topped the $0.80 consensus. Next-Generation Security ARR reached $8.1 billion, up 60% year over year, and remaining performance obligations climbed 36% to $18.4 billion, reflecting a healthy pipeline of committed future revenue. FY guidance was raised above Street expectations on both the top and bottom lines, with the company projecting revenue of $11.42 billion to $11.43 billion versus the $11.29 billion estimate and adjusted EPS of $3.77 to $3.79 against a $3.70 consensus. The premarket pullback to around $290.50 appears to reflect a market that had already priced in a strong quarter rather than any fundamental concern with the results.
