What happened
Reached its target in 15 days.
The thesis — published September 21, 2025
AMD took a step back, but demand for AI chips still looks strong. Industry news points to busy times for memory and computing tied to AI. AMD's new MI300 chip and its ROCm software are gaining attention, which could win more customers. The price looks weak right now, so consider starting near the lower end of its recent range and only add if the price closes above 162, as wins and overall mood around the stock improve.
Primary drivers
- MI300 chips and ROCm software could attract more AI customers this year.
- Shares pulled back, while more parts of the market are turning upward.
- Rising AI use means more need for high-power computing and related chips.
- Wait for a close above 162 to show buyers are in control before adding.
