Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) has shown remarkable growth and resilience in 2023, with shares increasing by 125% year-to-date. The company's CEO is widely praised for effectively reinventing AMD, highlighting strong operational management. Despite recent challenges, including disappointing forecasts and competition from Nvidia (NVDA), analysts remain optimistic about AMD's long-term prospects, particularly in the CPU market, which has seen unexpected growth. Forthcoming revenue targets indicate substantial upside potential, fueled by partnerships and demand for AI technologies. However, concerns about high valuations and competition persist, leading to discussions on appropriate investment strategies.

NVDA
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Aug 15/23, Up 32%)

Sold, and put proceeds into the modelling guys and into NVDA. NVDA's incorporating software into its chips has created another moat/barrier to AMD. Longer timeframe for them to become competitive with NVDA.

(Analysts’ price target is $196.00)
BUY

Ranks 8/10 fundamentally. Has done well, still sees upside. Usually with an acquisition, short-term pullback in the price before stock rallies back to where it was. That would be a great entry point. Great job pivoting business models. WFC raised price target to $205 with an Overweight weighting.

Can't own them all. Likes it at these levels. She owns QCOM instead.

(Analysts’ price target is $187.00)
BUY
AMD vs. Nvidia

Based on three previous dips in Dec. 2018, Q1-2020 and 2022, a two-day trend is not a sell-off. In 2022, NVDA corrected 70%. There's a lot going on geopolitically, namely the US election, so wait and see. The problem with NVDA is it's heavily traded--everybody loves. AMD is safer with less volatility. For a trade, buy NVDA on a dip, but he's sitting on both names now, waiting.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Second-place to NVDA, but a bit cheaper and less loved. In general, the semi space is quite expensive at this point. Look for opportunities, such as today with the NASDAQ coming down, to buy a bit cheaper.

HOLD

Was supposed to be the next big NVDA, and that's why he holds it, but it's lagged. Pretty good runway. He's taken a bit of profit. 

(Analysts’ price target is $190.00)
HOLD
Caller sold some AMD shares to buy competitors. Sell the rest of AMD?

Hold on. The momentum is very strong in the semis space, all driven higher. Semis used to be very cyclical, but not anymore and their demand will be more durable. If NVDA shares slide, AMD won't necessarily fall with them, because AMD's chips are different, are not as cutting-edge as NVDA's

WEAK BUY

Has done well in recent years, compared to INTC, because of alliance with TSM. Going forward, monitor how TSM is doing compared to INTC. Seems to still be in a good spot. Challenge upcoming with Arm technology in cell phones.

SELL ON STRENGTH
Bought at $79, took some profits earlier, now what at $159?

Pulled back. Perhaps chips are not considered as good as NVDA's. She doesn't play in the semiconductor sector, too cyclical and volatile. She'd rather play the hyper-scalers. Still momentum in the data centre buildout, but put your money elsewhere if the volatility is too much for you.

HOLD

It's been a great stock over a long period of today. It was downgraded today so shares slipped. The CEO is too strong, so he wouldn't write off AMD.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jul 21/23, Up 47%)

Loves the theme of AI, chips, data centres, and servers. It's come down from a couple of months ago and traded sideways, another opportunity to get in. Next leg will be up and, hopefully, retake past highs. Super-comfortable with.

DON'T BUY

Does not shares in this business. Has focused on other aspects of this sector. Company under pressure compared to Nvidia. Prefers "picks and shovels" style business. 

PARTIAL BUY

Technically attractive, as stock's fallen a good amount from recent highs by about 38%. Trading near 200-day MA. He's picking away at it.

PARTIAL SELL
Is down 9.5% today after earnings

The reaction is normal; shares were overbought. We're seeing de-celeration of exposure to semis after quarters of growing it. He's reduced his exposure in semis overall. Shares are -20% YTD, but they've moved 60% higher the past year.
