Why AMD Stock Rose
No AMD-specific announcement was reported for Friday's session, and financial media tied the gain to a sector-wide rebound in chip stocks. On Thursday, November 5, chip stocks fell sharply on worries that a Democrat-led Congress could bring tougher AI regulation and slow the buildout of AI data centers, Reuters reported.
On Friday, chip stocks recovered and the broader semiconductor index rebounded after its steep drop in the previous session, according to Reuters. Thomas Shipp, vice president of equity research at LPL Financial, told Reuters: "It's just that yesterday's reaction seemed pretty pronounced and people are kind of just stepping in a bit."
The rebound came on the same day a stronger-than-expected October jobs report lifted traders' bets on a December Federal Reserve rate hike, per Reuters.
AMD Stock Analysis: Supporting Factors and Risks
Supporting Factors
Record quarter: in its third-quarter earnings report on November 3, AMD reported revenue of $13.4 billion, up 45% year over year, and record Data Center revenue of $8.5 billion, up 97%.
Guidance: according to the same release, AMD expects fourth-quarter revenue of approximately $17 billion, plus or minus 3%, with a non-GAAP gross margin of about 55%.
2027 outlook: on the earnings call, CEO Lisa Su said she expects revenue to grow more than 80% in 2027, and AMD began volume shipments of MI455X chips to Anthropic, Meta, Microsoft, OpenAI and Oracle, as reported by Barchart.
Risks
Supply limits: Su said "Demand is higher than supply," and AMD is working to secure wafers, packaging and memory, per Barchart.
PC weakness: Client and Gaming revenue fell 8% to $3.7 billion in the third quarter, per AMD's release, and the company forecasts a double-digit percentage drop in 2027 PC shipments as memory costs rise, according to Barchart.
Policy and timing: Reuters linked Thursday's selloff to worries over tougher AI regulation, and TIKR noted that AMD's 2027 outlook depends on customers bringing data centers online on time, which new rules could slow.
Cash flow: Barchart reported third-quarter free cash flow of $554 million, down from $1.53 billion a year earlier, while inventory rose to $11.5 billion.
TIKR estimates that AMD's fourth-quarter report will likely come in early February.
