AMD: AI Pessimism Makes Little Sense

Summary:

  • AMD investors sent the stock tumbling as the market turned more cautious over its AI growth inflection.
  • AMD’s forward guidance missed Wall Street’s estimates, suggesting the market has tempered its enthusiasm.
  • However, AMD’s forward adjusted PEG ratio is more than 40% below its tech sector median, highlighting the market’s significant pessimism.
  • I argue why AMD is well-positioned to capture share in the burgeoning data center segment while facing a dominant Nvidia.
  • With AMD returning closer to its September 2024 lows, a rare buying opportunity may have emerged again.
