24/7 Wall St. Insights Advanced Micro Devices Inc. (NASDAQ: AMD) and Microsoft Corp.
Advanced Micro Devices Inc AMD analysts make a case for the company to gain market share in several sectors as it works to compete against NVIDIA Corp NVDA and grow its AI business, as evidenced in third-quarter results.
To gain an edge, this is what you need to know today.
AMD's GPU sales are nearing CPU sales, driven by AI data center demand. AMD raised its 2024 GPU sales forecast to over $5 billion, up from $4.5 billion.
Advanced Micro Devices' Q3 2024 results reflect robust Client and Data Center revenues, offsetting weakness in the Gaming and Embedded segments.
We're upgrading Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. stock to a buy from sell as the AI outlook is tampered for now. AMD just reported 3Q24 results and a softer-than-expected outlook for Q4 and tailing whisper numbers of AI GPU sales at $5B vs. $6B, causing the stock to pullback over 9%. Our negative thesis on AMD lacking material upside to current AI growth expectations continues to be at play, but we see a window for an intra quarter trade.
Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. stock is nosediving in light of reporting its Q3 2024 results despite beating consensus estimates. AMD's guidance for Q4 falling short of analyst estimates is the perceived culprit. However, there's a silver lining to this double-digit dip in AMD stock. Read on to learn more.
AMD showed some strong momentum in artificial intelligence in Q3. So why is the stock sinking?
Bank of America analysts have repeated backing for Advanced Micro Devices Inc (NASDAQ:AMD, ETR:AMD) (AMD) as underwhelming guidance offers scope for a “much-needed reset”. AMD on Tuesday laid out expectations for revenue to sit between $7.2 billion and $7.8 billion in the fourth quarter, against market expectations for just over $7.5 billion.
While a low Q4 revenue outlook is touted as a factor for Advanced Micro Devices' stock dropping despite earnings meeting expectations in Q3, this isn't a driving factor. AMD revenue earnings for 2024 are trending toward being largely identical to that of FY 2023, thus dashing investor convictions on forward growth. The company continues to lose revenue segment diversification benefits. The rise of “data center” revenues pits it squarely against Nvidia in the years to come.
AMD shares dropped 8% post-earnings despite beating top line estimates due to weak Q4 guidance. AMD saw a revenue acceleration of 10 PP in Q3'24 driven by strong demand for AI chips from the Data Center segment. Free cash flows also surged and gross margins expanded 3% Y/Y. On the negative side, then company's guidance for Q4 disappointed.
Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.'s stock cratered due to a minuscule guidance miss ($50M). Despite this minor disappointment, AMD posted excellent numbers, including a record 122% revenue increase in its data center segment. AMD remains relatively inexpensive, presenting substantial opportunities as we advance.
