The fastest on the US stock market: whose business is really growing?
An exciting spring is underway in the US stock markets, where several companies have found a new gear. In this overview, based on the first quarter of 2026, we look at the Nasdaq and S&P 500 companies whose business operations have gained momentum the fastest. We are leaving the software company Workday and the car manufacturer Ford out of the list. Although a large jump was visible in their profit numbers, it mainly stemmed from one-off events – in Workday's case, the disappearance of last year's costs, and for Ford, a refund of customs duties. Our focus is on companies whose growth is driven by strengthening core operations.
MUMicron Technology (MU)
Micron's operating profit grew by 810 percent in the first quarter compared to the previous year. At the same time, the company's sales revenue increased by nearly 200 percent, showing that revenues are growing significantly faster than costs.
Behind this extraordinary growth is the artificial intelligence boom, which has created a huge demand for memory chips and raised their prices. Although the market is concerned about the cooling sales of standard computers and mobile phones, analysts believe that the need arising from artificial intelligence will keep the company's profits strong going forward.
