MEXC, a pioneer in zero-cost digital asset trading, releases its observations on stock-related futures trading activity around Micron’s (MU) earnings report. Micron posted quarterly revenue of approximately $41.4 billion, significantly exceeding market expectations. Following the earnings release, capital concentrated in AI memory and storage, with a notable increase in trading activity in related instruments.
Micron was the most traded stock and stock index futures instrument on MEXC, with trading volume up about 142% from the previous day. SanDisk, SK hynix and DRAM ETF also recorded volume increases of approximately 83%, 28% and 35% respectively. Together, these four AI memory and storage tools accounted for 44% of the daily volume of the Top 10 stock-related futures, underscoring the market’s increased focus on the sector.
Besides memory and storage, there are also AI computing and semiconductor names such as NVIDIA and SOXL, as well as index futures including SPX500, NAS100 and US30, also maintained high trading activity. The momentum fueled by Micron’s gains wasn’t limited to AI memory and storage, but spanned computers, semiconductors and broader U.S. stock indices.
Prior to the earnings release, thematic trading patterns were already visible on the MEXC platform. From June 22 to 24, AI memory and storage individual stocks (+28%), DRAM ETF (+92%) and SOXL (+51%) all registered meaningful volume increases, while broad US stock index futures fell about 55% over the same period. This indicates that capital did not indiscriminately go long US equities, but had already concentrated on the memory and storage segment with limited supply before the earnings announcement.
For high-profile macro or earnings events, MEXC futures trading allows users to expand trading capabilities across the full cycle of anticipation, realization and follow-through – positioning before earnings and reacting or hedging immediately after results are released. MEXC provides more than just a single instrument entry point: within a unified account and USDT margin system, users can flexibly adjust positions in single stock futures, related supply chain names, sector and thematic ETFs, and index futures as market themes evolve, without transferring capital between platforms. Combined with a zero-fee structure, the frictional costs of switching between instruments are further reduced. Notably, the AI memory and storage sector itself includes three markets: Micron is listed in the US, SK hynix and Samsung are listed in Korea, and Kioxia is listed in Japan. MEXC currently covers futures on all three markets, allowing users to build positions on national markets following the same industry logic.
In addition to profit-driven secondary market trading, MEXC also extends asset discovery to the pre-IPO stage of technology companies. SpaceX (PRE), the first instrument on the platform Pre-IPO Launchpadattracted cumulative subscription volume of more than $173 million across two rounds. Since SpaceX completed its IPO on June 12, prices on the secondary market reached as high as 217 USDT, about 67% above the subscription price. This shows that the entire process, from pre-IPO subscription to secondary market trading, provides continuous and sufficient liquidity. Through MEXC, users can participate in different phases of a single core asset on one platform.
As the demand for market trading becomes increasingly cross-asset and inter-regional, MEXC bridges pre-IPO, secondary market and futures trading, connecting globally sought-after instruments to provide users with a one-stop platform for US stock trading. Moving forward, MEXC will continue to identify high-quality assets, enabling global users to capture unlimited opportunities with minimal friction and maximum capital efficiency.
