AMD

backfire97

I was in high school and wanted to buy my first stock. I wanted AMD for roughly $2.5 a share and get about 40 shares but my dad said to invest in something else so I did Activision. Rip.

Whatever you do , do not add anymore money other than your gains/profits. That way you are not conveniently adding more money into your plan other than from the gains you make from trading . Your goal is the gain from $500. Thats it . When u add , people tend to get lazy and does not analyze what you did wrong or right . That said if u add , to me you are gambling 100 % . Don’t confuse or spent any books for now . Check on YouTube and learn the basics About Option . I know it’s not the most popular but actually it is , use Robinhood . Don’t have others tell you otherwise . Their platform is the easiest and intuitive to learn. Read the charts and patterns overtime . This is not something you learn overnight . You have to start form the beginning, start small and learn gradually and understand. No mistake is a waste . That mistake is your learning exposure and analyzing your action , why did you take that position and why you sell them . Without this u will fail . Buying fomo and sell because you panic is also mans guilty habits . Learn the stock behavior in those chart . Buy only high volatility stocks . AMD GOOG AMZN etc . This is the only stocks I look at my screen day in day out, everyday . Learn what the overall market does and what the stock does in the chart . As you get better , you become good at it that your screen time lessens. You do not have to trade everyday . Only when opportunity comes along . Once or 2 times a week or none at all for 2 weeks . Take a break. There will always be another chance . Stock market will be here after we are gone . Ok my hands are tired

Talking her book, I would say. While I admire Musk, I don't see how Tesla translates to AI dominance. They don't make chips, server farms, IT applications. They could use AI for autonomy in the vehicle for sure. But how does that equate to 50% of the AI market? What about Nvidia, Intel, AMD, TSMC, Apple, Microsoft, Google, Palantir, Crowdstrike? Are they supposed to be limited to 50% of the remainder? Don't think so. I also question the total $8-10T market cap. When AI is mature in the next 10 years, it will be a lot more than that.

>AMD will probably increase their MI300x guidance for second half of the year Translation: market expects AMD to lift MI300 guidance and if they don't lift it as much as expected it drills to 100

Am long AMD, so probably puts

I had a feeling that intc would be low, I've slowly been building up to 1 share. I don't normally fractional, but in this case I wanted to build up. Kept adding a couple bills here and there as it dropped down past 31. Hit the 30 dip and went in on full shares.  It's a long term hold though for sure, trying to use intc like nvda is literal gambling. Holding intc for the next 5-10 will be a good investment though IMO. Being in the tech space, Intel has really had a rough bout the last decade not having a lot to show while AMD has made huge strides. Looking at both 5 years, we can see the covid bump where stock prices rise due to everybody becoming gamers. INTC had a huge bump, while AMDs is more sloped poising for a long term market play.  And if you'd opted in back then, you'd be up like 100%. From memory I want to say AMD was ~$65 back then (March 2019 into Sept 2019).  Intel on the other hand had a steep slope IMO due to the same market circumstances, however they did NOT have themselves set up for continuing this growth. And we see where that led us, as they're now wavering between 30 and 33.  I think in a few years Intel will have something to show other than 6.0ghz single cores, and if not well, I only paid $30 a share lol

SpareSupermarket1708

MSCI told AMD to f\*\*k o\*f as they will now only use NVDA graphic cards. I hope NVDA will not fall together with AMD after Tuesday close.

Playing calls on AMD and AMZN Jumping ship by lunchtime on Wednesday

Ill_Try1620

Yeah, I figured with news like that AMD will have to say something on conference call

pinghing

He announced his plan to buy AMD Chips. But did he actually. I don't know. We'll see this AMD earnings.

Ill_Try1620

Isn't AMD utilized? I actually don't know the answer to this

pinghing

Too many plays for this week. SMCI AMD SPY for Tuesday AAPL

KickBassColonyDrop

The dojo team still exists. People in jobs move, doesn't mean teams always collapse because they do this. Jim Keller left AMD after setting up the teams to build Zen and after developing Infinity Fabric, AMD is doing great. He then went to Apple to build the Cyclone ARM cores, then left and Apple is doing great. He was at Tesla for a bit, helping build HW3, he then left and Tesla is doing great with that. He went to Intel for a bit, but they're too regarded and he left. They're not doing so great, but you can't fix what happened to the guys at the back of the Wendy's parking lot. All in all, all the teams that Keller left behind have excelled. By the same token, Dojo team is probably fine. The $500M investment into the NYC DC for Dojo and Training is a clear indication that this team is fine and is just undergoing common turnover.

Ok_Spite_217

It's chip design not software 🤦 The likelihood here is that AMD is licensing an ARM core architecture for the post-processing coprocessor. ARM makes their money by licensing their ISA, AMD makes their money by selling their chip designs but they also hold the x86-64 ISA patents.

Sqouzzle

Any consideration to how AMD, SMCI and AMZN earnings will impact movement? Also have FOMC, Powell can keep moving goal post and have markets spooked again

godliketendencies

Bought NVDA at $28, sold it at $40. Bought AMD at $5, sold at $8. FML

___TychoBrahe

Didn’t MSFT and OpenAI say they’re using AMD Gpus?

Nekrosis13

AMD will tank

Androcles_InTheSky

The obvious play is AMD as it seeing everyone here

unwanted_hair

Of course the obviously play is bearish AMD... which is why you buy calls.

spokenjeremy

NVDA calls for AMD earnings seems like the play

excellusmaximus

AMD already guided for a decline in gaming.

PreparedForZombies

Yep I was never so happy as leaving AMD at 18....

shortymcsteve

Intel just reported flat guidance for the year during the same week as the biggest tech companies said they are aggressively increasing CAPEX on AI and Data Center spending. You have to be pretty dumb to bet against AMD at this point.

Mammoth_Chard5648

Seems many ppl are betting AMD's reports on Tuesday. Puts

nateyp123

AMD earning Tuesday .. up or down ???

Longjumping_Serve_68

I’ve seen a lot of people on wsb be bullish on AMD. I agree with puts

Mckimmz87

Hey there. Im going through my older comments and came across this one of you mentioning AMD. Are you planning on taking any trades following their earnings?

Dank_Investor

Although AMD is the special Ed singling of Nvidia with ten times worse fundamental and ten times higher valuation. Even if they report bad numbers, they will mention they are working on AI chips and stock will be move up

TreStation

You make a valid point. Anyone who told about AMD and gaming has not been listening to the last two ER calls. They’ve expected a decline in PC gaming but have been heralding the MI300X.

Timely-Tune6009

Fair enough, if youre looking for higher %, then it'd be more "conceivable" with AMD. But then AMD would need an ace up their sleeve to get that kind of growth, just like NVDA did with their AI groundwork years ago.

excellusmaximus

AMD will probably increase their MI300x guidance for second half of the year and the stock will go up. This actual earnings report is not all that important - just the MI300x guide.

Europe-Trader-1991

We straddle/strangle AMD?

reFridgeRatorRaiderG

The article doesn’t explain much, like why does AMD need to team with ARM? Doesn’t give details on software development either, seems fluffy

InBolted

It's not about earnings it's about market saturation. Growth is more explosive at lower market caps . AMD earnings will continue to grow just like NVDA but it's gonna be harder to see a company go to 16 trillion market cap than 2 trillion ... Also AMDs PE ratio is 300 , NVDA was there not to long ago 😂 people were saying overbought and they all missed out . Pe isn't everything.

Glennonator

Sofi is attractive because of its price, i have sofi stock and use sofi for recurring fractional shares (self run index) Everyone loves to hate on robinhood. I've actually thought they have been showing good moves since they worked with several banks to raise clients fdc insurance. Both can win, but i say Robinhood is nvidia to sofi's.... AMD Or..intel... Sofi is making efforts, i think will pay off short term talk even if i think some are annoying. Not sure long term. I had a bid sitting on Sofi (merril lynch related?) Brokerage and that same bid executed on robinhood. Greedy skimming didnt execute my bid when there was an ask. So little stuff like that peeves me and my main issue i communicated to sofi was " that profit better be yours so it helps your stock, know what ur partner is doing/making money off of your clients" leverage in deals

Takeoff_V1

return on fractional shares would be low and not sure if its worth your time. Instead of buying options, you can also consider buying actual shares of stocks of good companies that offer minimal risks like BA, AMD, JPM, GS, GILD, and JNJ and many others.

Sufficient-Tourist21

Does anyone dare calls on AMD? They had a couple of rough months but are still way up over the last 12 months. GOOG exploded on AI but they don't use AMD AI chips as far as I'm aware. Neither does AMZN, but MSFT uses AMD chips as does META. AMD usually beats earnings but is usually also pretty conservative in it's guidance. For AMD to rocket, guidance would have to be especially good, like double the original MI300 sales estimate. Then again they *did* revise their estimate on MI300 upwards last time but got torn to pieces anyway because both consoles and desktops were weak. Now desktops are a thing again and Ryzen CPUs are doing well so the question really is: Wtf is going to happen to AMD after earnings? 

Timely-Tune6009

And AMD's PE would be 8x. AMD's current earnings would need to 4x to be the same PE as NVDA And if it were to be 2T company, it would need to more than 30x its current earnings.

Yeetman603

What we thinking about AMD earnings this week?

thegoldenarcher5

If AMD is near a resistance or a low that's a pretty solid bet. I'm not sure when their earnings are, but watch out for Powell speech and FOMC minutes on Wednesday, might send everything into a tailspin if he says "what rate cut, u mean rate hike?" But that would require him to have a spine, so doubtful

Glass-Fill4213

Thanks for sharing. 1-2 DTE give best results I’d say. One other observation is to not trade if there is no imminent market news driving tech stocks. Last week Facebook, Microsoft, Google results were to be released. These are major events and can pull a stock down by 5-10% and there is cascading impact on NVDA. Next week we have results from AMD. Not directly correlated but if the market tanks or moves up, NVDA has wild swings.

ImpromptuFanfiction

Straight up, I started buying AMD during Summer 2015. I should have put every single penny I ever had in the stock. I still think about it. Was the first stock I ever bought.

helloworldwhile

lol, my money is on AMD. Su Bae is gonna take over NVDA profits.

TrumpKanye69

AMD’s biggest factor is MI300 sales. If they have high demand and sales for those servers then they will moon.

TravisLedo

AMD was my first stock ever. Bought at 11 around the time Ryzen was coming out. Nothing happened and it even dipped so I sold. Now it’s 157.

BlitzAuraX

There's so much negative TSLA sentiments here by people who are casual stock investors. I've been investing in TSLA since 2014. You guys are hilarious. TSLA is doing better financially today than they were in 2018 when they were on the verge of bankruptcy. Outside of last year, TSLA is doing better financially than ever. So the stock is down. And? Do you know how investing works? TSLA is a long-term play. Most of what they're developing is a 5-7 year timeline. It seems some of you are newer investors and don't realize how poor of an investment Apple was decades ago. Imagine if you sold Apple shares before iPhone was introduced. "But Elon tweets too much." Yes, it's annoying. But it doesn't have the impact many of you seem to believe. Most Americans don't know a single thing Elon tweets about. Outside of America, I guarantee you people don't even care about what Elon tweets out. Most of Tesla's decline in vehicle sales this Q was in China - not America. The problem with EV's isn't exclusive to Tesla. If it was, explain to me why LUCID, Rivian, and other EV makers are all down. EV is just a bad industry to invest in at this moment because ICE vehicles can be purchased for cheaper and when the economy is having turmoil, you're going to pick an ICE over an EV. It's also hilarious how ya'll talk about TSLA's stock performance but Ford is performing the same the past year and I've yet to hear anything about Ford here. We get it, TSLA generates the most views, clicks, and interest here. No one wants to talk about Jim Farley. They want to talk about Elon Musk. And that's 90% of what happens in every TSLA-related post on here. It turns into an Elon thread. None of ya'll will actually discuss what the company is actually doing. It's 2024. Elon has been tweeting stuff for years now. No one cares about it. TSLA is down because EV sentiment is down and TSLA was priced for growth. TSLA hasn't yet capitalized on FSD improvements (though v12 is a huge improvement) and their robotics/AI has yet to result in a significant revenue line. There's also a large % of people moving away from TSLA to invest in other AI companies such as Nvidia and AMD. You guys are confusing stock performance with financial results. TSLA has a bad Q1 but the company is still doing fine operationally. High interest rates made their vehicles super expensive to buy so TSLA has had to lower the prices to match the monthly payment so people could actually qualify. If all you guys want to just talk about is Elon, it's funny I don't see any of you saying the same when a SpaceX post is made... because ya'll got nothing to say. And FYI, SpaceX is valued at over $200 billion with no shortage of investors looking to purchase shares.

_letter_carrier_

I backtested long straddles on a couple other problematic underlyings: AMD & TSLA , these were nearly as volatile as NVDA but in the other direction. These also had a profitable year of long straddles. Most interesting is that profit is maximized with a slightly longer DTE and mid-expirey close: When using next DTE + closing next day or at expires, AMD/TSLA weren't worth it, but a 14DTE closing at 7 days was pretty good. `symbol strat total_profit min_profit max_profit` `-------- ---------------------------------- -------------- ------------ ------------` `TSLA d50_dte1_cdte7_max50_loss-200_buy 11.03 -6.3 16.14` `AMD d50_dte1_cdte1_max50_loss-200_buy 2.64 -8.82 11.45` `AMD d50_dte1_cdte7_max50_loss-200_buy 14.68 -6.47 11.45` `TSLA d50_dte1_cdte1_max50_loss-200_buy 38.08 -6.63 17.15` `AMD d50_dte14_cdte7_max50_loss-200_buy 152.32 -11.6 33.85` `TSLA d50_dte14_cdte7_max50_loss-200_buy 319.35 -10.66 29.37` For return on capital TSLA wins ! With a contract cost of \~ $1100 average and 5-6 contracts in flight at a time for a total of about $6600 at risk at a time, the outcome was $31,935 --> 480%

lostinhunger

A few. The obvious Google/Facebook. I was just old enough to know they would be something, but not old enough to save and be able to invest. Either way, they IPO'ed and grew to what they are now. AMD - fuck me, I did invest in this one at 3-6$. Buying, and then selling. It goes up 50 cents, I know it goes down 25 cents the next day. Doing that I built up to about 2500 shares. Then it hit 7$ or so, so I sold and waited, it went to 10$ it went to 15$ to and to and to and now it is 150$+. So about 375,000$. Then recently, SLV shares. I have been playing with options. It was under 22$, I bought calls for 22$ for about 60 cents for about 100 contracts. It goes up it goes down I hold. It goes down to 20 cents, in my mind it will go up but I don't cost average in. Well it goes up to 90 cents. Great, but the next day it Powell brings it down to 72 cents, so I sell, still some profits right. Well right after that it bumped all the way up to 5.12$ per contract. My original 6k, on the original 400 contracts would be worth 51200$. if I had averaged in another 6000$, I would have had 190464$. Not a loss but still sucks balls I didn't step up on that bet. That being said I did turn 2124$ into 23400$ last year. During the pandemic, when Tesla dropped was the first time I thought to myself I wish I could buy options on this, probably would have walked out massive on the people buying into it. Honestly I don't think the company should be worth more then a tenth of what it is now, but people be people.

jeopardy_loser

I mean, don’t get me wrong. I *love* Intel’s chips. I’ve been a lifelong fanboy since the late 90’s, when I built my very first (working) gaming rig…before I even knew what I was doing and knew what Nvidia and AMD even were. That said, if I’m putting my hard-earned cheese in chip stonks, I’m looking elsewhere (like Nvidia or AMD).

Me, 800+ apple sold in 1998 pre ipod/iphone...... 400 share of JNJ (23 dollar cost basis) employee stock purchase , sold in 2001 6150 shares of GME sold at 42. Purchased at between 7 and 9 dollars........... 900 shares of AMD sold at $90 purchased at 20 to 30 dollars..... I can pick them but my timing sucks..... Then I lost almost all of it on PSFE. 96,% loss

SMK_12

~9 years ago I was 19 and in college. Was interested in all nerdy tech things. Opened a robinhood account and would frequent reddit investing subs and heard about AMD and NVDA so I bought some. Loved Apple products so I bought AAPL. Was a musk fan boy so bought Tesla stock, then heard about Bitcoin and bought a bit through binance and then coinbase. Only problem was I thought I was smart and rather than just buy and hold I tried frequently trading and missed out huge on most of the gains. That and I was only making a couple hundred bucks a week so in total only had a few thousand to invest with. Now I own a lot of the same but my cost basis is significantly higher because it took me years to realize just buy and hold. I’m doing well but I could’ve had many times more money than I do now if all I had done was just buy and looked away from the screen.

Ill_Try1620

Well I own shares of AMD

ACiD_80

Intels client market gew 35% ... Datacenter only grew 5% but thats probably more because of nvidia than amd. AMD puts it is.

I bought AMD at $8 and thought I was very smart selling at $10 for a 25% gain.

Maleficent_Major_337

Had a buy order for AMD at 2.50 x1000 shares when I did the research and knew it was on every iPhone in 2015. Didn’t buy and ended up committing the money on TD bank. Wow… missed that one

Ryantacular

I bought AMD at $2.40 and sold at $4.00 😭

IndependentVirus431

Told my dad to buy AMD in 2013, he liked the idea but simply forgot lol

necriss

I live in New Zealand and back in 2014 and US stock brokerages were only provided by local banks charging obscene fees. I thought about buying AMD stock back then but it cost around $80 USD an order (buy/sell) and the bank gave really bad foreign exchange rate to USD so overall the position would be down ~3% instantly upon buying. In hindsight should have just copped the insane fees. Proper brokers that didn't charge obscene fees didn't start appearing till around 2018-2019.

MDJeffA

Two: Apple in 2006 for 60$, went up to 70 them down to 60 again then I sold. AMD in around 2012 for 12$, them sold at 19$ and bout a bunch of penny stocks that pretty much all went to 0.

P0stNutClarity

Ii was looking at and held Microsoft, Nvidoa and AMD back in senior year highschool 2010. I put $1000 into those 3 stocks and $1000 into a mutual fund from money I worked for over the summer I was the only student investing. Had my mom sign off on a parental account. Needless to say I graduated turned 19 the following year, sold off the stocks to pay down debt and buy electronics and didn't really keep up. Honest to God I'd be a multimillionaire if I just kept investing my pocket money.

OtherwiseHappy0

I had 1000$ ready to put down on Chipotle at 45$ a share. I really like the company early on… Didn’t pull the trigger at the time… it’s 3k a share now… 66X return missed. We all have atleast one miss… most of us slept on AMD, the second Bitcoin bounce or something else… remember to stay positive.

Nightowl3090

My brother and I were talking about AMD in 2015 and decided to check the ticker price. We couldn't believe such a legacy powerhouse was only $2, we then researched their upcoming Zen architecture and company revamp. We then proceeded to do nothing lol.

Gingergerbals

I bought AMD at around 3-4 a share and sold it at $10. I had 1k shares....🥲

BringBackSoule

you aren't understanding what i'm saying. even the mere possibility that apple's, nvidia's and AMD's whole production could halt, should not be a thing. even if the invasion is not inevitable.

sigvt7

Owned both AMD and Broadcom at 2022 prices. Sold both to go all in on TSLA at $100/s it looked like such a good move at the time.

NoMids

AMD at 2 sometime around 2016. It went to 6 and I felt it had peaked to I missed the boat haha

Inevitable-Way1943

I bught 300 dollars worth of AMD stock like 25 yrs ago. I sold the stock to buy something that I don't even remember.

Low-Smoke7370

Honestly, I focused on 7 magnificents but Tesla, apart from there AMD. For MSFT, I am holding, looks safe for me, and some amount I don't out on big risk, current earnings there 5k which is about 17% of 83.2 stocks. Amazon, holding 115.5 shares with 9.17% of earnings. I hope it will blow out in the earnings Nvidia, I got earnings if 67.5% from 32 stocks, waiting for earnings to blow out to see If I can quickly scrap something, and reinvest on it, in a cold down. From AMD and Meta I have stupid decisions, in combined I invested 10k, out of this I might lose 1k usd, so I have around 10%. In short, I don't do options because i wouldn't control my emotions, I am playing safer as I can.

PyrrhaFan

AMD way back when they introduced the first Zen chip. Then they kept iterating and improving while Intel was taking the piss.

butt_badg3r

I bought 1000$ worth of AMD stock. In a TFSA. At 3$ a stock. In 2014. Sold it at 5$..

I wanted to buy AMD when it was around $5 per share. I didn’t because Cramer from Mad Money said it was crap at the time. That guy is an idiot.

This is why AMD was known as the Advanced Money Destroyer on wsb at the time.

awirelesspro

Same with AMD. Didn’t buy when it was $4.

2cents-worth

Tesla in Feb 2013, I liked their cars since I first saw them on Top Gear. I figured I’ll invest 10K, my friend convinced me I was being irresponsible.  AMD around Feb/Mar 2017 when it was close to $11. I had been following their Ryzen products for a while and believed that it would definitely give the company a good comeback. But, then I got scared of putting in 6 figures in one single stock based on just my research and opinion. OXY and MGM in 2020 when they went close to single digit prices. I thought they would easily recover, but I had all my money locked in an another investment that didn’t pan out eventually. I bought 150 NVIDIA in April 2022, and sold it off in March 2023. That was stupid.

Tarnhill

Mine is AMD, I’ve been an AMD user since the K6. They hit a really low point in the late 2000’s to early 2010’s. I think below $2. I knew they were a sure bet because intel wasn’t going to be the only x86 game in town. I just didn’t have any money. At work I went on and on “if I had $20k sitting in a bank account I’d buy AMD” A colleague heard me and most have been following it. He bought in something like $10k when it was at $9-$10. I think he sold most of recently at around $170.

Yes_that

Bought AMD at 3$ and sold at 12$ thinking I did good...

InBolted

Pe ratio isn't even full story... A 2t market cap has less growth potential than a 250b company. By the time AMD touches 2t it's already 8x . But the chances of NVDA growing to 16t before that is unlikely lol

Apple is probably mine, too. I remember reading Wall Street Journal when I was in high school, about 1984 or 1985 and asking my dad, 'How do we buy stock?' He gave me some answer about needing money, needing a broker, it was too expensive - Why? What stock do you want? AAPL, Apple Computer. I feel like this company is going some place. I also sold all of my AMD stock when it went from $12 to $23...
