AMD Falls On Q1 Earnings, Q2 Guidance: Why '1,000% Growth' From AI Stock Is Not Enough For Investors
Portfolio Pulse from Chris Katje
AMD reported Q1 earnings and Q2 guidance that surpassed analyst estimates but still saw its stock price fall. Despite achieving over 1,000% growth in AI GPU sales and solid performance in server and MI300 segments, concerns over gaming segment weakness, competition with Nvidia, and high expectations for AI revenue growth have impacted investor sentiment. Analysts have adjusted their price targets accordingly, with a general consensus on AMD's strong position in AI and server markets but cautioning about its valuation and competition.
