SAN FRANCISCO, Dec 14 (Reuters) - Micron Technology Inc. (NYSE:MU - news) on Tuesday reported a fiscal second-quarter loss, as the No. 2 memory chipmaker continued to be hurt by plunging prices and a glut in capacity.

Micron Technology said the results included $173 million in inventory write-downs.

Micron Technology was forecast to report a consensus loss of 39 cents a share, within a range of a loss of 26 cents a share to 75 cents a share, according to an analyst survey byThomson Financial/First Call.

Shares of Micron Technology rose $1.11 to $31.81 on the New York Stock Exchange before the report, which came after the close of regular U.S. trading. The stock has fallen 12 percent during the year to date.
