- Micron says its Taiwan operations continue normally while negotiations with the Taoyuan union remain unresolved.
- The planned Taoyuan facility is linked to an investment of 3 billion to 4.5 billion US dollars and is expected to produce HBM and DRAM chips.
- The dispute adds execution risk to Micron's Taiwan expansion while the company seeks an agreement with workers.
Micron Technology stock traded at 648.05 euros on Lang & Schwarz at 16:36 CET on Tuesday, November 10, 2026.
The latest quote differs by 6.78% from the 606.90-euro quote in the previous report dated November 9. That change provides a fresh market reference as investors assess Micron's expansion plans and the continuing labor dispute in Taiwan.
Taiwan Expansion Faces Labor Uncertainty
Micron says its Taiwan operations are continuing normally after reports that construction plans for a new Taoyuan facility had been halted amid negotiations with a local union. Focus Taiwan reported on November 6 that the company would continue talks with the Taoyuan workers' union with support from the city government.
The planned facility is expected to produce high-bandwidth memory and dynamic random-access memory chips. Focus Taiwan said the investment under discussion ranges from 3 billion to 4.5 billion US dollars and includes advanced equipment from ASML.
The dispute involves demands for a specific profit-sharing program. Micron has reached an agreement with its Taichung workers' union, while negotiations with the Taoyuan union remain open. The company said it values its Taiwan workforce and remains committed to constructive communication.
What Investors Should Watch Next
The key near-term issue is whether Micron and the Taoyuan union can reach an agreement without further disrupting the timetable for the planned facility. A resolution would reduce an execution concern, while prolonged negotiations could keep attention on Micron's manufacturing footprint and future memory capacity.
