Q: Re Micron from RBC, " Though the industry is experiencing positive sales growth as a whole, MU has been unable to grow sales and is losing market share. This trend continues from the previous year when sales growth at MU and the Semiconductors industry were -20.62% and 3.53%, respectively. Also, " Joint venture partner Intel will be ending its partnership with Micron, which creates another competitor for Micron to deal with."
