(MU), and Marvell Technology Inc. (MRVL) are recommended as top AI chipset manufacturers for 2026, each sporting a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy).
NVIDIA reported strong fiscal 2026 Q3 earnings, with Data Center revenues up 66% YoY. The company plans to launch Rubin Next in 2027 and Feynman AI chips in 2028, expecting $3-4 trillion in AI infrastructure spending by the end of the decade.

Micron Technology’s solid Q1 FY26 earnings were driven by high-bandwidth memory (HBM) chip sales. The company expects even stronger results in Q2 FY26, with revenues between $18.3-19.1 billion and diluted EPS of $8.22-$8.62.
