She went to work as a process engineer at an Intel chip fab in Arizona. Over half of companies reported less than 10% representation of women in technical director roles and less than 5% in technical executive leadership roles. While the chip industry makes efforts to expand the recruiting pool in general so that hiring can be more inclusive, the changes can feel incremental. Related storiesIntel set goals to increase its female senior leadership representation to 25% and technical roles to 40% by 2030. Closing the gender gap in the chip industry will require more efforts from companies and top leadership to make these career paths more inclusive and stable.

Anything above 4% indicates the market is overbought, anything below a minus 5% means the market is oversold.) I am just prematurely predicting other investors fleeing the stock because they think Warren knows more than them. Many investors thought that Amazon was the best set up of the Mag Seven going into earnings. We are right smack in a most perilous moment because the Fed doesn't want to move too fast but the stock market does and the Fed does not care about that. I don't think a presidential election is all that conducive to the market.

Nvidia is getting a boost from that and surging after being renamed Morgan Stanley's top semi pick. AdvertisementChip stocks were rallying across the board on Wednesday, driven by a big earnings beat from AMD and Morgan Stanley naming Nvidia a top stock pick. Other stocks getting a lift included ASML (up 11%), Qualcomm (up 6%), and Samsung (up 4%). In addition to riding AMD's wave higher, Nvidia was renamed Morgan Stanley's top semiconductor stock pick. "Through those concerns, the earnings environment is likely to remain strong, for NVIDIA and for the whole AI complex," the analysts said.

AMD shares are down about 6% in 2024, even though the company is the second-largest vendor of data center GPUs after Nvidia . Investors want to see AMD take market share away from its longtime rival Nvidia with its MI300X AI chip and signal growth in its data center AI business. Earlier this year, AMD said it expected $4 billion in AI chips sales this year, or about 15% of the company's expected sales. AMD AI chip sales are reported in the company's Data Center segment, which grew 115% year-over-year to $2.8 billion, driven by an increase in AI GPU shipments, AMD said. Sales for PCs are reported in the company's Client segment, which rose 49% year-over-year to $1.5 billion, versus expectations of $1.43 billion from Street Account.

☆ AMD jumps on earnings report that validates our decision to reinvest in the stock
▼ + stars: | 2024-07-30 | by ( Jim Cramer | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +9 min

AMD sold off on its first-quarter earnings report due in large part to its MI300 sales guidance falling short of sky-high expectations. Nvidia remains the dominant player in AI chips, but AMD is continuing to carve out a lane in the rapidly expanding market. Among the highlights, Su said Microsoft has expanded its use of the AI chips for certain software applications, including messaging app Teams. AMD's data center business is now nearly 50% of companywide revenues, up from 37% in the fourth quarter of 2023. Within data center, sales of both AI chips and traditional server chips will grow in the third quarter, Su said.

What does going on the defensive look like for a company with between 70% and 90% market share? Advertisement"Our sense is that investor expectations still haven't adjusted enough to the impacts the Blackwell launch will have on Nvidia competitors," the analysts wrote.

"The company made a massive switch in its consumer mix," said Sandeep Rao, a senior researcher at Leverage Shares, an investment management company. As for competition, even if Nvidia's contenders appear weak, more entrants will grab market share. Beth Kindig, the CEO and lead tech analyst for the I/O Fund, estimates that AMD's market share could reach 20%. Nvidia and AMD have similar production costs since neither makes their GPUs but uses the same supplier, Taiwan Semiconductor (TSMC). "So AMD is a little bit behind in terms of performance," Rao said.

Nvidia's Hopper chips include the H100, which was announced in 2022 and faced severe supply shortages last year as the AI gold rush intensified. Tuesday's AWS news represents a pushout in demand for Nvidia chips, not a loss of it. That would be the so-called "digestion" phase for AI chips that Wall Street has been speculating about since last year. If anything, AWS deciding to wait for the more-powerful Blackwell chips could mean the digestion phase is further out on the horizon than initially thought.
