Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Reached its target in 16 days.
The thesis — published September 20, 2025
AMD's price looks beaten down, while spending to build AI computing is set to be huge through 2030. That could lift its data center business and future chip plans, and possible cloud deals add support. Short term, recent price action is weak, so a step-by-step buy makes sense, adding only if the trend turns upward. Over the next 1-3 months, timing of news and tough rivals mean staying careful and flexible.
Primary drivers
- Rising AI spending could boost higher-margin data center sales mix.
- Price looks depressed, which can set up a better upside-to-downside trade.
- Upcoming chips and launches could attract customers and bring new orders.
- Rivals and supply limits may affect sales timing and profit margins.
