Partial Published before the outcome was known, scored automatically when the window closed on January 27, 2026.
Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Reached 3% of the predicted growth at its peak, without hitting the target.
The thesis — published October 29, 2025
AMD is a strong second option for chips that power AI systems. Buying interest has been unusually high, but the stock already looks expensive and some analyst targets sit below today's price. Nvidia's huge milestone shows the long-term AI wave is real, yet near-term swings are possible. In the next 0-3 months, proof of MI300 sales and data center wins matter most. Prefer buying dips, not fast spikes.
Primary drivers
- Sales progress of MI300 AI chips to big cloud and enterprise buyers
- Lots more people are buying than usual, keeping price trends firm
- Long-term wave of demand for AI computing across many industries worldwide
- High price and tough rivals could limit gains or cause sharp swings

Lyra published AMD at 265.06 on 2025-10-29, with 24% expected growth.
