Amid all the hype about the tech sector and artificial intelligence (AI) this year, one stock that has surprisingly not done well is Advanced Micro Devices (AMD -2.89%), aka AMD. As of Monday, shares of the chipmaker were down 15% year to date.
Shares of Advanced Micro Devices (AMD -2.89%) surged to new highs at the beginning of 2024, but mixed business performance across the company's operating segments has weighed on the stock for most of the year. After reaching a high of $227, the shares are down 44% year to date at the time of writing.
There was a flurry of industry interest in the first-ever funding round for cloud computing firm Vultr, which secured $333mn in new investment at a valuation of $3.5 billion. The hat was passed around by LuminArx, the special situations fun, which managed to persuade AMD to part with cash.

Recent Wall Street downgrade looks to be a reaction to share price decline rather than fundamentals. Market share concern is less critical given rapid growing AI demand.
In the latest trading session, Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) closed at $125.02, marking a -1.32% move from the previous day.
