$MU / Apple-China memory policy: WSJ: Apple is lobbying the Trump administration to allow CXMT and YMTC memory in devices sold outside the US, while Micron is pushing to block the move. Micron is arguing its 250B US capacity buildout gets undercut if Apple is allowed to source Chinese memory for non-US devices. That is a direct policy risk to the memory-pricing squeeze supporting Micron's FY27 DRAM and NAND setup, even if AI HBM demand stays firm. FT added today that Rep. Ro Khanna is pressing Commerce on the same shortage and China-sourcing issue. source: WSJ / FT
