Micron Technology stock traded at 725.85 euros on Lang & Schwarz at 16:31 CET on Wednesday, November 11, 2026, 13.06 percent above the Xetra close of Tuesday, November 10. The quote was 4.49 percent above the 694.65-euro reading in the latest report published earlier on Wednesday.

The new market update comes as investors assess the reported pause in plans for Micron's Fab 11E memory facility in Taoyuan, Taiwan. Focus Taiwan reported on November 6 that Micron said its Taiwan operations were continuing normally after reports of a project halt linked to a labor dispute.

Expansion Plans Meet Labor Uncertainty

Bloomberg, cited by Focus Taiwan, reported that Micron had suspended plans to invest between 3 billion and 4.5 billion US dollars in the Taoyuan facility, including purchases of advanced equipment from ASML. The planned site is intended to produce high-bandwidth memory and dynamic random-access memory chips.

Micron did not directly confirm the reported suspension. The company said Taiwan remains important to its global footprint, expressed confidence in maintaining business continuity for customers and said it would continue negotiations with the Taoyuan union.

The dispute centers on demands for a specific profit-sharing program. A separate agreement was reached with Micron's Taichung union in late October, while talks with the Taoyuan union remained unresolved. Taiwan's Ministry of Economic Affairs said it would help facilitate negotiations.

What Investors Watch Next

The immediate issue is the timing of future capacity rather than a reported interruption to current production. A prolonged dispute could keep attention on Micron's ability to execute its Taiwan expansion while artificial-intelligence demand supports interest in HBM and advanced DRAM.
