Micron jumps after $250B US plant spending boost for AI memory demand; PepsiCo and Costco slide on weaker-than-expected sales and tightening consumer budgets.

Micron adding $50 billion to a prior $200 billion commitment is a blunt, multi-decade bet that artificial intelligence (AI) will keep devouring memory, and investors are pricing that narrative into an already-hot run. The clip neatly frames a market tension: capital-hungry hardware upside versus the slow-moving headaches of consumer staples.
