Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Reached its target in 19 days.
The thesis — published July 9, 2025
AMD already has $4 billion in orders for its MI300X chip and is winning more server business, yet its shares are still priced far below rival Nvidia. A recent jump in chip stocks shows better sentiment, and trading action hints the drop is over. If management talks more about data-center chips in August, the stock could climb toward $170 within about three months.
Primary drivers
- $4 billion in MI300X preorders should fuel data-center revenue growth.
- Heavy buying of chip stocks on July 8 improved overall market mood.
- Trading signs point to the recent price slide flattening out.
- Demand for data-center graphics chips could triple by 2027.
How it played out
AMD: target reached in 19 days
Lyra published AMD on 2025-07-09 at $137.82. The thesis expected 24% growth toward $170.90 within about three months. It pointed to $4 billion in MI300X orders, more server business, stronger chip-stock sentiment after July 8, trading signs that the slide had flattened, and demand for data-center graphics chips that could triple by 2027.
Inside the window, AMD rose well past the target. It reached the target in 19 days and peaked at $226.71 on 2025-10-06, with a 64.5% peak gain. It ended at $211.51 on 2025-10-07. The thesis played out, and the move exceeded what Lyra had published.
What happened during the window
On August 5, AMD reported Q2 FY2025 revenue of $7.685 billion. On October 6, AMD and OpenAI announced a multiyear chip agreement tied to 6 gigawatts of AMD GPUs.
