Chipmaker Advanced Micro Devices is an "emerging growth opportunity" in artificial intelligence, according to Morgan Stanley Wealth Management. Investment strategist Daniel Skelly said he added the chipmaker to the firm's equity model portfolio. He noted that AMD is "a leader in chip end markets with potential AI tailwinds." "We viewed AMD's 2Q23 print constructively as management indicated improving business conditions into the second half of the year," Skelly said. "With data center revenue growth troughing, we believe investors should look through to a 2024 inventory re-build that is supported by tailwinds from AI."

"No one is coming for Nvidia on AI, period, any time soon," Stifel analyst Ruben Roy told CNBC in an interview Wednesday. The new version of Grace Hopper primarily delivers improvements in memory capacity and bandwidth compared with the first-generation product. In practice, improving the memory capacity and bandwidth of the Grace Hopper Superchip should help AI applications run more efficiently and smoothly. Volume production of the improved Grace Hopper Superchip is expected in the second quarter of 2024, according to Nvidia. Open-source software Nvidia's closed-source CUDA software platform – along with a library of pre-trained AI models — has helped establish the company's AI dominance.

AMD may be nearing the end of its rally, according to some Wall Street analysts. Following the earnings report, Bank of America reiterated its neutral rating on the stock while lifting its price target by just $2 to $132. Although the firm raised its price target to $115 from $110, it still remains 2.2% below Tuesday's close. We also thought investors would eventually tire of the expensive valuation of AMD stock and we were wrong on that count as well. AMD shares gained 1.2% Wednesday during premarket trading.

AMD Chair and CEO Lisa Su speaks at the AMD Keynote address during the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) on January 4, 2023 in Las Vegas, Nevada. Chip stocks dipped Wednesday, after AMD 's disappointing revenue forecast raised concern that fragility in the PC market and slower spending from businesses may be poised to continue. Marvell fell almost 6%, Nvidia slid close to 5% and Intel and Texas Instruments each declined more than 3%, falling more than the broader tech market. At the same time, the company said a "weaker PC market" dragged second-quarter revenue down 54% in its client segment. Semiconductor companies led a decline in tech stocks, as the market was hit by Fitch Ratings' downgrade of the United States' long-term foreign currency issuer default rating from AAA to AA+.

REUTERS/Florence Lo/IllustrationAug 2 (Reuters) - Advanced Micro Devices's (AMD.O) shares fell about 6% on Wednesday as analysts raised concerns that the chip designer's targets for an artificial intelligence (AI) ramp-up may be too ambitious. "Unless numbers get really material, soon, we fear estimates remain too high and the stock (AMD) looks a little stretched to us," Bernstein analysts wrote in a note. Summit Insights Group analyst Kinngai Chan said investors were giving AMD a pass hoping for a bigger AI payday. "The Bulls want AMD to be the next concept stock... the Bears say show me the results and make me believe the AI hype."

Club name Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) delivered better-than-expected second-quarter results after the closing bell Tuesday, leading us to make a price target change. Revenue fell 18% year over year to $5.36 billion but outpaced the Street's expectation of $5.31 billion, according to estimates compiled by Refinitiv. Wall Street seems to think so as well, bidding up the chipmaker's stock in after-hours trading by more than 2%. The MI300A is designed to address High-Performance Computing (HPC) and AI workload needs, while the MI300X is designed specifically for generative AI applications.

[1/2] FILE PHOTO-A smartphone with a displayed AMD logo is placed on a computer motherboard in this illustration taken March 6, 2023. REUTERS/Dado Ruvic/Illustration/File PhotoGANDHINAGAR, India, July 28 (Reuters) - U.S. chipmaker Advanced Micro Devices (AMD.O) said on Friday it will invest around $400 million in India over the next five years and will build its largest design center in the tech hub of Bengaluru. Despite being a late entrant, the Modi government has been courting investments into India's nascent chip sector to establish its credentials as a chipmaking hub. "Our India teams will continue to play a pivotal role in delivering the high-performance and adaptive solutions that support AMD customers worldwide," Papermaster said. Unlike its top rival Intel, AMD outsources production of chips it designs to third-party manufacturers like Taiwan's TSMC.

"But when we go to an AI server, Intel's contribution drops to low-single digit percent, and that's where Nvidia's contribution gets to almost 60%, 70% of the price of the server." Still, it's possible AMD also saw softer demand for its data-center CPUs in the last quarter due to ramped-up AI spending. Like Intel, AMD is also working to bring its own AI-focused chips to market . Yes, Nvidia stock has had a monster run, more than tripling year-to-date, but the fundamental reason for that outperformance — its AI dominance — is completely intact. It remains an "own it, don't trade" stock, alongside Apple (AAPL).

It was also one of several conclusions we made combing through the results and listening to the conference calls with investors. We are basically looking for results or management commentary that speaks to peer companies or the industry as a whole. On the call, management said it was "to support cloud demand, including investments in AI infrastructure."

Wall Street kicked off the week with bullish takes on several high-flying tech stocks in the portfolio — validating our decision to stick with these mega-caps heading into quarterly earnings. It's also important to understand that some price target raises are just chasing a big move, and that the price reaction to an earnings release has less to do with the results and much more to do with expectations. It's also why Citigroup also put AMD on a "negative catalyst watch," meaning it is negative on the stock heading into earnings. In the analysts' view, Apple has an opportunity to grow its revenue by seven times in the U.S. over the next decade to about $40 billion, while adding 170 million new users. Microsoft What the analysts say: Analysts at Mizuho reiterated their buy rating on Microsoft while taking up their price target to $390 from $360.

Analysts at Morgan Stanley published the results of their second-quarter CIO survey, providing valuable insight into information technology budget expectations. Cloud and cybersecurity Digging a bit deeper, the survey reveals that cloud computing and security software remain the top two priorities for CIOs followed by artificial intelligence/machine learning. The analysts singled out Microsoft as the most exposed to the two major themes of the survey — generative AI via ChatGPT and cloud consumption via Azure. Cloud and AI enablers All of this also bodes well for the names that make cloud computing, generative AI, and LLMs possible. Importantly, the demand is not only coming from cloud service providers (CSPs) but also from enterprise players and AI startups.

Morgan Stanley offered up some of its top ways to play artificial intelligence as the technology enters a "golden age." But even after those significant surges, Morgan Stanley thinks the tailwinds are far from over. Given this setup, Morgan Stanley analysts highlighted 37 stocks as global AI winners with a combined market capitalization of $2.8 trillion. To compile the list, Morgan Stanley searched for areas of the tech supply chain situated for the strongest AI revenue exposure. Morgan Stanley expects the company's dominance to continue in the foreseeable future, calling it the "cleanest story" within AI hardware.

June 30 (Reuters) - Artificial intelligence chips from Advanced Micro Devices (AMD.O) are about 80% as fast as those from Nvidia Corp (NVDA.O), with a future path to matching their performance, according a Friday report by an AI software firm. Nvidia dominates the market for the powerful chips that are used to create ChatGPT and other AI services that have swept through the technology industry in recent months. That prompted MosaicML, an AI startup acquired for $1.3 billion earlier this week, to conduct a test comparing between AI chips from AMD and Nvidia. Tang said that MosaicML used its tools, the PyTorch and AMD software to train a large language model without having to make any changes to its code base. If developers can find AMD's chips at the right price, "you can already switch to these today they're essentially interchangeable" with Nvidia chips, Tang said.
